“On the Eleventh Day of Wishing,
I’d like a new table runner.”
How about one that as you sew it together, you are also quilting it? Yes, in about 6 hours, you can be at the point of binding. We just finished a 6-hour class on this and all the students are now binding. And one of them was back in the store for fabric to make a couple more. It is one of our most popular table runner kits, as it works up quickly and is very impressive.
- The Holiday Braid runner finishes at approximately 17” X 52”.
- All kits include the fabric for the top, binding, and backing.
- $49.99.

I am busy making stuffies and dolls and I need help with turning them inside out.”
I used to make little fabric newts (lizards). These started out as toys for my kids and quickly morphed into a home craft business where I was selling them as fast as I could make them. They were about 9” long, with the body only about 5”, and had 4 little fingers per hand. I became a master of turning little things inside out. And there was only one way I could manage to put these out in the hundreds. It was a tool called the Turn-it-All. It is also known as a Bow Whip.
This tool is also used for turning purse handles and spaghetti straps inside out.
- The package contains 3 sizes of tools, and you select the size dependent on the project.
- $12.99 per package.
- There is a video on YouTube, which demonstrates how it works:
