This month is going to be all the things I found in a sewing tin. it was from Verdin Park boot sale. The lady said the tin had belonged to her mother.
When I first spotted it ,I like a card of pins that were on the top, the lady said "you can have the whole tin for £1.50."
So I bought it just for the pin card.
But when I looked inside it was chock full of other treasures.
All these needles and hooks where at the bottom, all layed out like this they look rather sinister.
