Did you wonder what that red thing was? Or did you guess it right away? Here's the photo (scroll to almost the bottom of the page) where you can see the beautiful gold work along the neck, that my image could not do justice.

I LOVED solving this! And I knew what the spool of thread was once I saw the image of the sewing machine (about halfway through). Your puzzle spurred a lively conversation between me and my roommate about the old Singers our mothers owned when we were kids. And I do think your puzzle does the actual image justice. Wonderful, Teresa.

I didn't see it until I read the description. This is going to be an interesting series, seeing as some of the antiques may not be familiar or recognizable to people in normal circumstances. :)

My second two color puzzle. Nice. I'm a seamstress so liked it even more.
