Hi Debbie - I have one of these Lacemaker's Prayer bobbins, and I love it. I'm glad to know who made it - it's exactly like the one on ebay, but with a different spangle. One of my friends has had her eye on the current ebay auction, but now that "the cat is out of the bag", I expect it will go for a lot more.
