Needle & Thread

When my husband's mom passed away several years ago, she left behind a tin with some sewing items. This thread is one of the items. I have never seen a spool of thread with two strands like this, so found it interesting. I wonder if it may have been used for embroidery. She never sewed much, but possibly her mother did.

I placed the thread on the back side of a small quilted wall hanging that I made...a bee printed shirting fabric was used for the backing.

 

Thanks for views, comments and favs :)
