Treat Yourself!

or make a special treasure for someone you treasure.
Over the years I have seen several variations of a "teacup pincushion"-- Pretty much a circle of fabric stuffed and glued into a pretty teacup--with a very pleasing result--
Today I want to share an idea (with tutorial) that happened to stumble into my Facebook Feed (Funny how that happens!)
It's a TEAPOT SEWING KIT!

What a wonderful way to use even a damaged teapot--

Pins and needles in the top and other sewing essentials tucked inside!

Sadie Seasongood will show you how RIGHT HERE!

(or click on the teapot picture!)

Christmas Shopping at the Dusty Attic!

If you have quilting friends, we have a wonderful selection of kits and patterns that would make nice gifts--other ideas you can find here like the manicure sets, fun little scissors,

and of course--Gift Certificates!

Sew very SWEET BOOKS!

These are IN STOCK now in the shop!

We love quality Children's Books--and these 2 new paperback books have adorable pictures and catchy rhymes!

It's a wonderful idea to have a plot involve SEWING and QUILTING--Sweet Gabby shows her little friends TLC as she stitches something special--
and little ones everywhere will be inspired to create something, too!

Each Book  comes with a free pattern --
our price -- only $9.99!  (Suggested $10.95)

from MONICA at Crafty Nest

Charmed, I'm sure!

    We have a lot of fun with these little metal charms--the connecting rings and little lobster clasp are available, too-- so it's not just about sewing them onto something--ALTHOUGH they do look adorable as mini ornaments on our Christmas Star--

We put silver on the bright tree and gold stars or jingle bells on the traditional tree. Kits are just 13.99!
