sewing chicken

This year for Christmas it definitely paid to be a sewer!  My Grandma ReVoe gave all the girls that sewed these awesome "sewing chickens" that my Grandpa actually made himself with you know wood and a saw.  It is what was in her house as a child and around in the 1930's and 1940's.  When you needed to sew on a button you would get down the sewing chicken which had the scissors, thimble, thread and needles.  She gave me the neatest pair of Ginger scissors, one of her thimbles from her collection and a page with the story behind the sewing chicken!  I LOVE it Grandma.  It is such a neat thing to always have and use and remember you by!
