I found my Pharaoh bobbin yesterday, - only to find that the word "King" is on the other side - so "King Pharoah" would be the full inscription. That seems to indicate it was to commemorate the Egyptian finds or something like that, - not a child's name.
Talking of pillows, Lucky you, Alice!! What a great 'find". My DH saw a beautiful Tombolo Pillow, set up with the bobbins, at a house where we visited, - and would love me to have one - (would actually Buy me one?? - Wow!!! ) However, we would not get it into Australia, as, looking at them on the web, they are stuffed with "vegetable matter". Grrr!!! They are so beautifully carved, and with the stand and some carved bobbins, they would be quite eye-catching, if nothing else!!! Not only the cost of the pillow and stand, etc, but the shipping costs? I have not mentioned that to him - yet!!! :-) Still, it is a nice thought! :-) Regards from Liz in Melbourne, Oz.
