- Hi Karen! I haven't been on my ning sites as much as I'd like to lately, and missed answering messages last time. I've listed the weaving machine spool at my website:

- Hi Karen! I saw that you joined my vintage linens group. I've been away out of the country for a funeral.
I found an vintage weaving machine spool at a local estate sale a couple of weeks ago. I don't think it is antique...100 years old...maybe 1930s? I am going to list it on my website. Do you have any idea about those, as to age and value? Take care, Diane
