Sewing-kit mason jars

    Newer Older

    Did lots of embroidery today. I got the idea from Martha Stewart's Living, you can go see the instructions here.

      okay - what i wrote on your embroidery kit photo ... that it would also make a great sewing kit. scratch that! lol -- you beat me to the idea. I really love your color choices, the simplicity of these. they aren't fussy. really cool gift ideas. You're doing Martha a big favor, spreading her gospel around, heheh. '-D

      I know Maureen, I'm just a big ol Martha fan...not of the person per se but of all the work and talented people that go into making such an inspiring magazine :o)

      Thanks Yvonne :)
      I bought the jars in Liverpool of Santa Fe., they're in the kitchen section & they come in three sizes.

      anther question: where do you find the felt? can only find red and green here - no nice colours

      Wow! I wish I had seen this sooner! I tried to find the tutorial, but it looks like it's been removed, too bad.
