For the Host or Hostess---Gifts to Sew

Candy Ornament table runner

Sewing something for the hostess (or host) of that holiday party or gathering is a thoughtful way of saying thank you for all the hardwork that went into planning, cooking, and cleaning. And these gifts are fast and easy---made in as little as an hour or two, depending on your skill and tools available. So don't forget a little something for that hostess---you'll be the most thoughtful guest on the list.


Matching Applique towel

Hostess gift one---bring two holiday scrubbies and complimentary dish towels and help with the clean up. The design CD has holiday designs for virtually every holiday of the year so you can use it over and over again to keep your house and those chores fun all year long.



Scrubbie

I love cloth napkins---don't you? And in just two minutes you can have fabric edged with one of the Husqvarna/Viking Sergers. So easy to take a yard or two of fun holiday fabric and turn it into napkins that can be brought out with every holiday.


 




Holiday table runners and trivets make great hostess gifts. Not only will they eliminate the scramble to find something to protect that fine table from your hot casserole but they will help create a festive table too. And we have so many designs and patterns in the store to help you out.

And a set of coasters will come in handy to protect that sofa table from that holiday punch. Cover old, unusable CD's and DVD's with embroidery and voila!

    And one of my favorites are the chocolate towels, using the Lunchbox quilt's fun Chocolate design CD. Embroider recipe's onto ready made towels for a quick and easy right there in the hoop gift. (CD is only $29.95 for a limited time!)

And don't you use the same recipes from your recipe books each year? Why not mark the pages with some festive holiday bookmarks---embroidered right on Aqua Magic stabilizer---no trimming of those edges; just a quick swish in warm water after embroidery and there's your bookmark ready to go.

Don't have a sewing machine yet that will perform these works of magic? Come in and see us. Now is the best time to get your Husqvarna/Viking Diamond or Ruby---with 0% interest financing for a very limited time only.(see the store for details.)

       

Sewing Gifts for Professionals and Co-Workers

Mail Carriers, Hair Dressers, Dog Sitters, Child Care Workers, and your Co-workers; it's nice to have a little something to give these special people who you couldn't live without.

And you can turn to your sewing machine to easily sew some original and personalized gifts for these special people.

One gift that is sure to please is an embroidered ornament. We have several design packs at the sewing center to help you with this gift----which will be as original as you are.

If a gift card for a cup of coffee or sandwich is what you choose why not make it more personal with a gift card holder created by you and your sewing machine in the hoop? Depending on the size of your hoop you may be able to fit 2 or 3 in each hooping to to save time and stabilizer.

 And who could resist a cute scrubby---especially for
that person who you know as a chef!

Sewing an eyeglass case either in the hoop or using a general purpose pattern would make a great and handy gift that any one can use for eyeglasses or sunglasses too.

And anyone can use a tiny sewing kit with needles, a bit of thread, safety pin, and an extra button for those emergencies in a kit that you make with your sewing machine.

When you think of it the possibilities are endless. Come see us for inspiration and project ideas.  We are here to help.

  












New Husqvarna/Viking Multi-line Decorative Foot

Over the weekend I got a chance to try out one of the new feet in the Husqvarna/Viking line. The Multi-line Decorative Foot is a convenient foot to have. With the small transparent grid that simply glides over your work you can see to sew everything straight and even.

I used it to quilt a mini and it was easy to see where my next line of stitches went. It also is easy to keep stitches even within a distance to any straight line. And it didn't do too bad on curves either.

A regular foot is 5/8 of an inch.  The Multi-Line Decorative Foot extends that width to a total of  two inches to help keep your sewing more accurate and assist you even further from the edge to place your decorative stitches and embellishments.

I really loved this foot and am sure that it is going to be a very useful addition to my sewing room.

Stocking Stuffers for the Sewing Enthusiast

Buttons are always fun and handy from $2.95

Our staff at the sewing center is ready to help all Santas and elves choose the best stocking stuffers for your loved ones. No matter what your budget allows we have gifts that will bring oohs and aahs on Christmas morning.

Holiday buttons are fun and sure to bring a smile when discovered in a stocking and they're reasonably priced too.






Husqvarna/Viking has just come out with some handy specialty feet to add to their Designer sewing machines. Chances are your sewing enthusiast could use these new feet:

Interchangeable dual feed foot

Quilter's guide foot for use w/dual feed  

1/4 inch guide foot for use w/dual feed

Clear Free Motion Quilt Mirroring foot

Multi-line Decorative foot

One of the greatest gifts we have this year are certificates for classes. Buy the class design and a gift certificate for a class or two. We have beginner classes and advanced classes; quilting classes and general purpose sewing classes. Best of all, with a gift certificate, your sewer can choose the one best for them. A class is a nice way to relax while sewing a project, making new friends, and learning new skills.

And there are always great designs for quilts and  household decor.

Fat Free Lunch Box Quilts  

Chocolate Recipe Designs create great gifts

 Don't forget the thread! We have specialty collections like this R/A skin color collection for digitized photos. And high quality threads for quilting and embroidery that are on special for this month only!

Floriani Assortment with reuseable storage drawers.  

And everyone could use another thumb drive! How about one in the shape of Santa?

Santa thumbdrive $10.95

We have sewing baskets if everything won't fit into the stocking. Sewing baskets filled with thread needles and a bit of fabric make great beginners gifts for children too. And sewing isn't just for girls any longer! We have a few gents in our classes.

Whatever the skill level of your loved one, our staff is ready to help with gift suggestions and ideas. Come see us for some relaxing, full service holiday shopping.
