The Thread Bin: a stylish accessory
How to keep with style the bits and ends of threads we produce while stitching? Instead of just leaving them scatter on the sofa or the floor...
With a Thread Bin of course, not any but a lovely and stylish one! Christine, the designer of Au Chat qui Dort came up one day with an ingenious and easy way to make one.
It was such a good idea and the end result was so charming that she had to make the pattern registered! No wonder this product is still a best-seller in France many years after its launching.
Not only these little bins are useful, stylish and very easy to make, but also they are all different! The large range of lining fabric and three different 32 count linen (natural, sand or white) lead to many combinations. There is surely one just made for you!
