The Sylko cotton reel is iconic, a symbol of 20th Century sewing and of a slower, less wasteful time. Sarah Miller Walters shares her love of the bobbins and their colour names. She also weaves in the story of Victoria - an ordinary 20th century woman and her life as told by her sewing projects. The book also includes extracts from classic books, colour photographs and original artwork.
