I got tired of putting my ring on the counter when I was showering/sleeping (since I'd manage to scratch my eyes out if I slept with it, I'm sure). I told DH to get me a ring holder, then said wait, I'm sure I have something. A quick search of the house later, look what I found! Eventually I'll use up the thread... I just need to do some hand quilting first!

We have a pet quail who has his own Aurifil thread spool to play with. We roll it on the floor and he chases in circles after it (since it rolls in circles).
