Can YOU Help Me? Please!
(I "borrowed" this picture from Connie)
I have searched high and low for over a year for a sewing tin styled like the one you see in the picture. I've been told that they were/are available at Wal-Mart but sadly I haven't seen them around.
So, can you help me find one or two - doesn't have to be the same design as the one in the picture. I would prefer that it have a sewing design on it but I'm primarily interested in the syle and shape. I'll gladly send money or whatever you'd prefer.
If 'you' found one or two for me I'd be one happy girl. :-)
Thank you!
In Friendship!

I'm lusting after one as well, so if someone finds more than one I'd be happy to send $$ or fabric. Hope your new routine is agreeing with you.

(((Hugs)))

So sorry Darlene - I've never seen a tin like that before. It's a great looking one - and does have a nice shape.

Well I cannot say I have seen those at WalMart but I will certainly look for you!

I did see some tins at Hancocks quite a while back, I will check there and see if they still have them. I will take my camera with me! They were not long and square they were more like a small version of like a old train case remember those in luggage... again it has been a while since I saw them but I will check :O) for ya ..

Send me the dimensions. I am going to the Dallas show next weekend and they might have some. Heck send me a phone # and I will call you and let you choose if there is an assortment!

I've never seen that beauty before, I can see why you'd like to find one. I'll watch for one on my travels and let you know.

Carole said...

I'll be heading to Plattsburgh tomorrow to get my wisdom hidden! I'll take a peak at Walmart for you! I avoid Walmart like the plague but for you, anything! ;o) If they have, how many do you want me to pick up? Hugs!

Oh, I'd be sooo happy to make you happy ! :>)
Unfortunately, I've never seen such one before.... Actually you HAVE started a new frenzy now !
I WANT one too ! It looks sooo cute and handy...
So, maybe we should ring the bells : Nadine wants one too and is ready to send the money, or anything else (well, almost) :>)

Thanks for your kind comment on my blog, dear...

I have not seen a sewing tin that size and shape - it's wonderful! I want one, too! I'll help you look for one or two or three.......

Ginger Patches said...

I"ve seen some online I think. Are you still looking? I"m just now getting another few minutes to catch up with the world.

Idaho Quilter said...

If someone tells you were to find it, will you post it please. I love tins and would be a happy camper to have one of these too.

Mary Johnson said...

I find a lot of my tins from Joann's. They don't always have the handles on them but they're usually pretty cute.

Judy said...

For some reason I missed this post...I bought a larger one at Quilter's Station last year, but I wanted one just like this! Saw my larger on at Walmart one day...but not this size. I would have bought one! If I happen to see them, I'll buy and send it to you. Let me know if you find somewhere to get them okay?
