The last time this issue came up, I was discussing some sort of tray as Shirley and Liz mention, but I wanted sides that came up for storage to prevent rolling off, and came down when I wanted to use the bobbins, so they could just be put on the pillow and treated as some sort of cover cloth on the pillow, then the sides come up again for storage. Any ideas, anyone? I like the cloth idea especially, much less chance of breaking the thread on an edge.
Lyn in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, USA where it's going to be another hot one, high in the upper 80's, 27-29C but sunny. Time for the air conditioning, all gardening done in the early morning.
