Tracing Wheel

Tracing wheel, anyone? This handy little tool was a staple in many sewing kits, and one member recalls watching their Granny use it to transfer markings from paper patterns onto fabric. That clickety sound as it rolled along still brings back memories of careful hands, pins in mouths, and fabric neatly folded on the dining table.
