those are such sweet memories. I got all my mom's sewing supplies after she died. She had a couple hundred spools of thread-- a whole color palette, and they're all wood spools. I didn't sew as a kid but I remember I'd go into her sewing chest and look at all the little tools and the buttons, so I have really early memories of some of the stuff. The one piece missing is her pinking shears. I have no idea what happened to them. I haven't been able to find the same kind at any store. I don't really need them, I just want to have a pair. I just love how little objects like those connect me to childhood memories.
