After mentioning to a few of the family about my rekindled collecting of thimble, it came to light my mother in law used to collect them too. I then was offered her collection to add to mine. I was over the moon with the ones I've come home with but have been assured that stuffed away somewhere she has more!
There's some fab ones in there and a couple swaps but I'm pretty sure they are older versions so maybe not quite swaps after all. My hubby was happy to see me get passed these they remind him of all the places they visited as kids and his mother used to have them displayed.
I am still sorting and adding all the individual pictures to the galleries and having had an influx of thimbles to add it's taking a bit of time to sort. So bear with me. And I may yet have more to add if mother in law remembers where she stashed the rest.
