REDnesday #6, Sewing Notions


Happy REDnesday everyone! I was cleaning out the bottom of the china cabinet the other day and decided to go through my tin of sewing notions to discard/give away what I didn't want. Well, I didn't realize I had such cool items in there! Today I'll feature the red items, tomorrow on Vintage Thingies Thursday I'll show some more.
These are needle cases. The scissors one has no maker, just Made In Japan. The sweet little girl is a repro, made in 2001 by Prym-Dritz Corp.
Two more needle cases, the open one is the scissors case. They're all so pretty on the inside!This is just the best, isn't it? The children are so adorable - I wish it was in better condition.Don't forget, there will be more tomorrow on VTT!

I love all the folders with needles. I actually have one that I bought in the 60's or 70's. I must be verging on being VINTAGE myself.
