Found these at a local antique shop and just couldn't walk away.
Avon Pincushion dated 1984 and what I'd call is Faux Tramp Art (handmade) spool cabinet...thread inside came with it.

I really like what you found. The fabric on the outside is just like a set of sheets I have. I really like the idea of having a a case like that. If I was into woodworking I would make one. Thanks for sharing.
