So sad that I could not bring everything home - I just didn't have enough space in my car. You've done something very special with yours.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6115005019733614660.post-7198633827183310192013-11-09T21:54:54.702-06:002013-11-09T21:54:54.702-06:00My mother has a sewing basket.

Every once in a while, I open it and go thru a bit of it.

I'm sure we had such a sewing box too but when Momma graduated to a sewing cabinet, all those cards of trim, hooks & eyes, and rewound spools of thread went into the drawers.

I'd come home from school ever day to her sitting at her machine creating something for me or another family member. She was a big lover of the pant suit back in the 70's. Anyway she taught me to sew although I don't do it much. I did inherit her button box which is a tin box filled with lovely treasures.
