O'Lipfa Safety Shield

 

Whenever I do a show this is the thing that I get asked about the most. I bring bolts of fabric to cut during the show and use my ruler with this attachment to cut the fabric. Everyone is just amazed. It seems like such a simple device but can really be a safeguard should your hand accidentally slip while cutting with any rotary cutter.  It is extra thick plastic that attaches quickly and easily to any ruler (up to 24 inches) with the adhesive strip.. Can be cut to fit on a smaller ruler. It does not interfere with normal cutting. I placed mine on the 1/2 inch mark. An excellent value considering it might prevent you from a serious cut.

$7.98 each

 

                                

 

Perle Cotton from DMC

Size 8 perle cotton

Another hard to find item. This is used to give projects a primitive folk art look. Use for quick stitch (big quilting stitches), stab stitch,  appliqué with a running stitch or blanket stitch (especially on tea towels) or for a variety of sewing and craft projects.  Can be used whenever you normally use floss without the hassle of splitting the strands. Available in black or cream.

$2.25 ball for 87 yards

     

 

Quilter's Leather Thimble

 

I learned to quilt years ago with this  leather thimble and have had one ever since. Very strong and durable, soft like a fine leather glove. This is the improved version with little openings on each side of the tip for ventilation. With a soft elastic band, one size fits most.

$2.29 each

Small Knit Stockings

These knit stockings are carried by the St. Nicholas made with a wooden spoon featured in our pattern section (kit # 286). They can be used with any doll, lightly stuffed and used to add a country accent to a wreath or garland, strung across the mantle or hung from a tree.  They would be so cute with each persons name or initials and the year  embroidered on the front. Use year round for a folk art touch. About 6 inches long.

$2.95 pair. Natural color
