Late Arrival - Pink Friday Gift Baskets

I'm late, so late ... but hey ... better late than never right? I thought I'd have to pass on today's Pink Friday sale, but I was inspired by our leader, Joyce Lucas, to make up some great gift baskets. 
I have put together a couple that I think someone will like. They'll make great holiday gifts or just a nice gift for yourself, or anyone who sews. You can see more images and descriptions and ordering information on my website's PINK FRIDAY PAGE.  There are only two baskets, each is a one-of-a-kind.

This is the "Seek Tranquility" Vintage Sewing Goods Basket
 


The first basket is a lovely floral hardboard, hat style basket filled with loads of vintage sewing notions, tools, buttons,
 lace, ribbon, seam binding, scissors, shears, embroidery floss, measuring tape, and all kinds of other goodies for the collector of sewing items.
 
This basket also includes 25 gorgeous decorator fabric samples! 








The second basket is filled with all the things you'll need to make a set of Mother & Daughter vintage inspired aprons. They are so cute! 

This is the Lola Apron pattern from Sew Liberated, and I've created a kit in a basket, with beautiful Anna Griffin fabric, ric rac trim, and seam binding to decorate your aprons, as well as a few other goodies of my own thrown in. 

If you know someone who sews, wants to learn, or just loves vintage sewing & sewing basket items, I have these on sale until midnight tonight (and yes, I'll be up... It's Halloween and I have a house full of teenagers spending the night!... now that's scary!)
