Your thread catchers are very pretty. I purchased one at a quilt show and I love it. What book did your sister find the pattern in, I would like to make some of those. They are great gifts.

Those are so cool. I need one for mine and my DH's machine. He piles his up neatly on the side of the cabinet and I throw mine in the floor for the vacume to pick up. Aren't we awful? :eek:

If you would make them to sale, you could make a bundle.

Those are really cute, love the colors!!

I have one and LOVE it!

great job-- they look really handy to have

You did a super job, on these cute thread catchers. I also made some this year and a few went into bountiful baskets at our guild meetings.

They are really pretty. I have said for two years I needed to make one for myself and one for my sister. I even have the pattern at hand. I have not started. Maybe seeing yours will give me the incentive to get on it. I currently have a small basket that sits on the floor below me. Problem is I often miss it then have to bend over to pick all the threads up. Good job.

I used sand in the pin cushion part - afraid to use walnut shells because of other people's allergies and 1/2 " polyester boning under the band on top of basket to keep it round and open.

Nice. What a gorgeous gift. Thanks for posting.
