The vendor had a lot of hand-crafted wooden things like thread/bobbin holders, ruler holders, quilt racks and ladders. It was somewhat expensive, but is hand-crafted, heavy, won't tip, will last forever. Since I usually choose my expensive purchases by asking, "Will I kick myself tomorrow if I don't buy this today?", and since I had never seen a rectangular one, the answer was a resounding YES. I've been to several quilt shows since and have looked for another, but haven't found one. So I am really glad I bought it when I did.
