That is really something different. I am glad that some of our posters knew what it was for. The mysterious gizmo now has a definate purpose.
Thank's for sharing,
Cheryl

OOOOOHHHH! That's neat. Send it to me! It looks like that is a quick way to make an afghan without crocheting.

i agree that it is obviously from outer space. someone found it here on planet earth in the 60's and decided to use it for daisies. but actually it is an official martian quilting thing-a-ma-jig.

All right I'm showing my age. It is a Daisy wheel. I just made a baby layate with it. You also can make pompoms with it too.
