Twenty-four original cross stitch patterns of vintage sewing notions, the little treasures of grandma’s sewing box: Tomato Pincushion, Wooden Thread Spool, Embroidery Scissors, Thimble, Dress Form, Button Card, Tape Measure, Needle Book, Sewing Machine, Yarn Ball and Knitting Needles, Button Jar, Floss Skeins, Sewing Basket, Needle and Thread Heart, Vintage Iron, Crochet Doily, Darning Mushroom, Quilt Block, Safety Pins, Hedgehog Pincushion, Thread Rack, Strawberry Emery, Patchwork Heart and Pattern Envelope. Each one sits in its own tiny frame – a round wooden embroidery hoop, an oval hoop or a pastel notion card – in soft blush, sky, sage and butter tones.

Stitch one as an ornament, a needle minder backing, a card or a small framed piece, or stitch all twenty-four together as a sewing-room sampler. A sweet gift for quilters, sewists and fellow stitchers. Tip: the wooden hoops and pastel cards show best on white, cream, ivory or light linen Aida. An original House of Needelier design, ready to download and start stitching today.
