Antique Zig-zag Scissor Stand & Needleroll

I have always loved antique stitching tools and studied them to come up with my own inventions. There can’t be many hobbies where you can actually make your own tools! Wooden bobbins have always appealed to me and are a great start point for stitching tools like my little workstations. I find antique versions of various sizes at brocantes and in favourite junk shops, but they are not so easy to find as they once were. I rather hope that using less plastic means we might have a return to sewing threads being sold on wooden bobbins!
