There is a very distinctive sewing basket at the Clearwater Historical Museum which belonged to Mrs. George Kaiser and came from the home of Ike Dunlap. It has two turning baskets.

The top one has places for spools of thread. Around the outside between the decorative spool holders are letters and numbers. Does anyone know what they represent? The top basket also has a lid that has a pin cushion on top.

The second basket is open and has space for yarn and other sewing notions.

Stop by and look at the sewing basket more closely.
