7. This Week's Stories and Requests for Help/Blast from the past We try to post
stories and comments from our readers each week. Send your story to
newsletter@tias.com.
Here's an interesting item from one of our readers in South Australia. Anyone
have any more info on this piece?
"After looking through your web pages, I am emailing with a photo for help in
identifying the item. I think it is some sort of leather wrist strap to be
used when hand-sewing thick, hard, heavy material (such as leather or canvas?)
and have had it for many years since clearing out my grandparents' belongings.
The lighter colour part is of a very hard material, with a small, circular
raised section that looks as if a needle should be pushed against it to allow
the user/the person sewing, to give extra push to get the needle through the
material.
Thank for your your time. I look forward to hearing from you.
Best regards
Sue
Sellicks Beach, South Australia"
