Somewhere along the way, I neglected to teach my daughters how to sew. And now they are finding that sometimes just knowing the basics would come in handy. So, because I love them, I'm giving them this handy mending kit by Cath Kidson for Valentine's Day that includes everything necessary to accomplish basic household-mending projects, from replacing buttons to hemming pants. Inside the lovely padded sewing organizer is a 32-page fully illustrated, step-by-step sewing instruction booklet covering all the sewing basics, plus a complete sewing kit which includes:
- Seam-ripper,
- Hem measurer
- Tape measure
- Pinwheel with 40 pins
- Scissors
- Built-in pincushion
- Needles (2)
- 10 colors of thread
- Needle threader
- Zippered storage pouch for buttons, etc
