Inexpensive (aka cheap) gift idea
Help!!!!
One of my stitching groups is having an early holiday luncheon Wednesday. If interested in participating in a gift exchange, we're supposed to bring something stitching related that costs under $10. All the regulars have been stitching for eons and therefore have a lot of stuff; they're also very, very accomplished stitchers and crafters. Other than a gift card, I can't think of anything. Help!!!! -- another anne, add ingers to reply |

Help!!!! -- another anne, add ingers to reply A book on an obscure technique? A selection of fancy threads. Those funky pins to mark counts. Packages of needles. A pair of scissors to travel with (under $10 = I don't care if I lose them) on a lanyard. Any help? Linda |

Buy some square quilted potholders. Fold in half and stitch up bottom and side edge to make a glasscase. Or with quilted fabric, run up some travel cases for makeup for brushes. i.e. make some of the pockets, wide, narrow and in between. |

Linda Adding on to Linda's great ideas, stitcher's magnet - there are so many nice looking ones - that have a top/bottom and sandwhich your fabric, so they can hold your needles, threader on top - make a great place for parking things. Also, someone once gave me a whetstone specifcally for my embroidery scissors. Needle tugger, or little stitcher's clamp (like mini-hemostats) Great hand lotion. Stither's diary/journal. Stitcher's bookplates, labels for your finished pieces. Just some more ideas. Ellice |
