Our new line of sewing accoutrements has just come out - thanks to Moda. We designed some of the small essentials needed to keep one organized when sewing. Most of these accessories are easy enough to make on your own out of small scraps of fabric - but just in case you haven't found any extra time lately....I thought we would give away a set. Included are two cloth tape measures - both in small drawstring bags to make them easy for traveling - and, the larger tape has grommets on either end which will let you attach it to your crafting table easily. A fabric roll with pockets for scissors and rotary cutters is made out of our polka dot material and finished with a coral grosgrain ribbon. The small housewife, or sewing kit, is the perfect small book to keep needles, buttons and spare floss. The pin cushion, marked made in 1892, was inspired by an old pin cushion I found years ago in France. Filled with sand, you'll never have to wonder where this pin cushion is- it sits solidly on your work table and holds every pin in the house.
All of our sewing accoutrements are up on our website now and will be available in the new shop - but just for fun, if you are feeling lucky, throw your name into the hat and we will pull out a name at the end of the week. Sew On!
OH, pls put my name in the hat.
ReplyDeleteI love the accoutrements and would love to have my name in the hat for the drawing.
ReplyDeleteSuch accoutrement would surely make me a more polished seamstress! Things of beauty are a joy forever. The tools should be as lovely as the finished products. - Amy Bauer amy@usdemolition.com

ReplyDeleteOh - I need a little happy something this week. Please put my name in the hat.
ReplyDeleteOh gosh Kaari what a fun way to keep all the necessary things close at hand!!
ReplyDeleteWhen I was 4-5 I was playing with one of my mums old pincusion when a seam split and out came sand of all things!! :) When I ask her why she said because it keeps moisture from rusting the pins and it sharpens them. It made such perfect sense to me that I've always had sand in my cusions :)
