How do I add my bobbins to this website?
Go to our Facebook group and share a photo of your bobbin. Once the maker or painter is verified, then add it to the albums and let the admins know so we can add it to this site.

Can I add photos of my friends' bobbins or from the maker's website?
No, we only accept photos from the bobbin's owner or the maker / painter.
Why are there only UK bobbins on this site?
Initially we have focused on UK makers and painters as that was where the FB admins were based, however we have recently expanded our remit to include Australian and New Zealand bobbins.
These will be added as we gather information on them. If you are interested in becoming an Admin to focus on another country, then contact us using the contact form.

What is the difference between a modern bobbin, vintage or antique
Why don't you have any antique bobbins on this site?
We believe that Brian Lemin's website covers these along with Christine & David Springett's book; success to the lace pillow.
