how do you put together the perfect sewing kit?
my friend recently recieved a sewing machine and as a gift I'd like to get her some supplies.
What a nice friend you are!
A nice tupperware-type bin that is kind of see-through, with a shelf in it for small items. You can stock it with anything that you find in the notions section that strikes your fancy....a couple of pretty pincushions, tape measure, buttons, a few yards of trims, anything that you think would spark her creativity. Other nice things to have on hand are a package of iron-on interfacing and/or fusible webbing, some velcro, different types of pins for different fabrics like silk, et cetera (it will say on the package) maybe a 6-inch ruler.
My mother in law likes to go to antique stores and pick up old spools of ribbon, thimbles, and buttons for me. They're not expensive and they are really special.
