My best sewing organization ... Thanks to my Dad and a close friend who returned this antique thread drawer after she no longer needed/wanted it. My Dad had this and said it was a display for thread in a store sooooo to organize I was blessed with this for my studio. ... Best find was mint wooden spools and spools of thread at $2. added character and display to my thread drawer. Now I know where every color and type is. ;)
