A very different gift.....

Another gift I received for my Birthday from my very good friend Kristy, was this twine holder/spool. Talk about COOL!

It is made from cast iron (I think, its quite heavy!) with this cute little bird on the top:

With a hook on the side for its own rustic type scissors:


I am sure I will get plenty of use from it! And, I'm thinking I will wrap some Moda Twill tape around it when I use up the twine:







The decorative bottom of the stand:




Such a unusual gift, and talk about *LOVE* it! Thanks SO much Kristy xxooxx


I have been stitching here, and have nearly finished a 'joint' project. I must finish it tonight ready to give as a gift tomorrow..... Burning the midnight oil here!
