Hi Cheryl, here is a pic of the beautiful bobbins. My SS sent me the wood trencher bowl (which I love also) and I was able to show the bobbins in that. I hope you like the picture and thanks again for the barter.

Hi Joan, Love the table cloth you have the wooden bowl on!! Of course, I love the bowl and bobbins. My mom worked in the cotton mill here in Alabama and she worked with those type bobbins every day...They would set up a whole line of those, wind cotton thread on them and set off the machine. She had to keep them from tangling while they were spinning. She worked in the Spinning Room as it was called. Brings back memories!! Smiles, Beth
