I never thought about what was used for the weight on those bags with the pincushion. Tiles are a great idea.

Sorry, the wonders of modern science are sometimes above me! Anyways, please include me in the draw, have been meaning to make myself a thread catcher for ages, so if I'm not lucky enough to win, will have to drop by and check out the tutorial more closely. Thanks!!

Congratulations on your upcoming 200th post. I want to make one of the thread catchers using the tile.If it falls on the ceramic tile floor will it break the floor or the other tile?
Congrats on your 200th post!
Well done, Myra- I have just begun my blog- My learning curve is large just now.
I love your thread catcher and enjoyed checking out your tutorial.
THanks for sharing your wonderful idea.
Perhaps I will be a lucky one- if not someone else will be very fortunate.
