They are brilliant, love the two bobbins so pretty.
What is it about something different that catches our eyes and say "buy me".?
Especially if it's cross stitch related.

Love them and so wish I had a hobby lobby near me. The bobbins are fantastic and the thread minders can always be used as bookmarks lol

Oooh, I LOVE those! Calculating when I can get to my local Hobby Lobby and find some...

We're they just with the regular cross stitch section? I find sometimes they shelve things in the weirdest order. Makes no sense to me anyway. :doh:

Once I found those bobbins they're the only ones I use now. I love them even though they are more costly, they're pretty to look at.

Oooooh! I love that peacock set! Now, why didn't I see them at either of my Hobby Lobbies last week when I was shopping for cross stitch stuff? . . .

Oh the bobbins are amazing!! Such a cool idea.

The thread holders are very pretty as well,though I don't use those myself, they are certainly very different and such a creative idea.

Those are so pretty. New toys are always fun. I love to look at the "accessories" sections in all cs websites. Have to see if my Hobby Lobby has those. I don't use a needle minder but there is always a first time for everything. :roll:

Someone came up with a way to make the hobby just a little more smile on the face. It does add a colorful twist to the bobbins.
