Thread Catcher ~ Check

Even though it was sweltering in my
sewing room this morning, I made
2 thread catchers, one for myself and 
one for Sophie (she has caught the bug, yippee)

Sophie's thread catcher



and mine


and if it ever cools down to a reasonable temperature
I will be making some bigger ones
