Some people are so spoiled ....:)
Did your Dad remember to "label" his work? You know, like we do with our quilts?
Somebody in the future might want to know the history of this piece ... it is truly lovely.

What a wonderful and loving dad you have! Very smart idea to store the thread this way.

No pattern. I just tell him what I want and he figures it out. ( except for the spining wheel). This cabinet measures
30" w X 36" h X 24" deep. He measured my largest spools of thread and used that to make the drawers. He also made the frame for my quilting machine.
