More last minute holiday gift ideas

Hopefully you have finished most of your holiday shopping and are ready to move to the next pre-holiday preparations -- baking cookies.  What fun memories we have of all the different kinds of cookies we baked as children.  What a decision it was to decide which cookies Santa would be most pleased to receive with his milk on Christmas Eve. This week we have a few last minute gift ideas to help you finish your shopping.  We found the cutest stitchery kits made by the sweetest couple living in Australia.  Each kit contains the design pre-printed on a nice quality muslin fabric.  Debby has stitched a couple of these designs and said they're a joy to stitch.  Each kit is $20 which includes the pattern and pre-printed fabric.  We will be happy to put together a thread kit to include with the kit ($1 per bobbin).  All these are in stock and can be ordered on our website Sew Graceful or by calling us at 479-372-7403.

If you're shopping for someone who seems to have everything, we bet they don't have a set of wool punches.  These are an absolute "must have" for anyone who adds berries to their wool applique projects.  The set includes a 6" x 6" cutting mat and 5 punches (1/4", 3/8", 1/2", 3/4" and 1").  The mallet used to tap the punch is not included but a trip to the hardware store will take care of that.  $109.95

Look at those tiny perfectly round berries!  Yeah......that's a dime in the photo to give you an idea of the size.

Gift certificates are always a nice gift.  Personally, we love getting a gift certificate because it's like found money and we can spend it on whatever we want.  If you've ever checked your coat pocket or that side pocket in your purse and found cash you know exactly what we're saying.

One administrative note before we sign off.  As you're planning your visit to our shop, please note we will be closed for the Christmas holiday beginning Thurs, Dec 22 through Weds, Dec 28.  We will reopen Thurs, Dec 29.

See you soon. Darlene and Debby
