Thread and Thimble
Macro Mondays - Vintage
Happy Macro Monday everyone.
An old wooden cotton reel and a tarnished thimble ... hope that's vintage enough :)
Having Googled this company, I think this cotton reel could date from the 1940's to 1950's, therefore, it probably belonged to my Grandmother, or even her Mother.
My Grandmother (1900-1987) inherited things like this from her Mum (1868-1952), and my Dad's sister inherited from her Mum, and I inherited from my Aunt (1921-1992).
The thimble I bought in a charity shop a few weeks back, for all of 50p :)))
