SOLD Bold and Lyrical Antique Hanging Pin Keep / Needle Book Barre Publishers making for a fabulous tabletopThis one for me is all about color and pattern, with this great color blocking of tan and (thinly striped) blue and white silk on the face, turned into a drawing with the lyrical application of that red thread. Feels like a poem, and a painting. The hinged face flips up to reveal several fabric "pages" for holding needles underneath, and then room for pins all around the sides. With green silk moire on reverse. 7" t (as hung) x 3 3 8" w x 3 4" d.
