Christmas is the perfect excuse to ask for something special. We have a lovely selection of gifts that both new and experienced sewists will love!

I'm going to be forwarding this list on to my other half- there are lots of lovely sewing gifts and I love receiving new tools and presents for my best hobby. This list is curated from my favourite things we have in the shop and use in the workshops, I love them all!

Pink Coat Club Pins

Show of you makes with a pin from the Pink Coat Club! Joy has designed a gorgeous range of enamel pins for sewers, crafters and instagrammers!  Beautifully made, and perfect for every outfit!

Sewing Box

A beautiful sewing box is an absolute essential in my book.  Choose your favourite from our range and start dropping hints now!  All our premium sewing boxes have sturdy handles, a durable tray insert and deep storage for all their sewing tools. 

Sewing boxes are only avalible in store, so pop in or give us a call.

Prym Love Tools

What's better than sewing tools? PRETTY sewing tools!  The Prym Love range is a range of quality sewing tools including pliers, scissors, marking tools and other essentials in their signature colour of turquoise and will brighten up any sewists day.

Our favourites are the magnetic pincushion-complete with pins, spotty metal dressmaking sheets, retractable carbon pencil and chalk marking wheel.

Sewing Kit

There is no better time than the New Year to try something new, so askfor a newa kit this Christmas and widen your crafty repertoire. 

We have a wide range of kits avalible, with something for everyone! The felt kits are perfect for children aged 5+ because they have pre-punched holes and everything they need to make a fun soft toy.

Older kids will enjoy this cute fox cross stitch or the classic 'Home Sweet Home' cross stitch for a retro feel.

Adults can also enjoy craft kits, my favourite is our Make Up Bag kit, but we have lots of fun options to choose from online and in store!

Pyjama Kits

 Make yourself a pair of snuggly warm pyjamas for Christmas, or give the kit as a gift to the sewer in your life.  A fun and quick make, this kit also comes wrapped in tissue paper making them the perfect gift this Christmas!  

The kit includes 2.5m of fabric, elastic, and your printed pattern.

A Creative Mug

Bring a little colour to your sewing table with a beautiful Jilly Jilly mug!  Everyone needs a cuppa while creating.

Tailors Ham

Take your sewing to the next level with a tailors ham.  Used to help press curved or 3D elements of garments, like darts and shoulders for a professional finish, a tailors ham is an absolute essential at the pressing table.

Patterns

It's probably best to make a list and share it with your loved ones of which patterns you would like to receive.   See our full range of dressmaking patterns here!

For new sewers, or those of you would like to have a go at dressmaking, you can't go wrong with a pyjama pattern.  Pyjamas are one of the simplest patterns to sew, and, because they're only worn at home, they're a low pressure project!

'Sewing is My Super Power' Pouch

Everyone needs a place to keep the little bits and bobs, for sewers this includes our hand sewing kits, needles and threads, or a small EPP project for working on on the go!

Available to buy from Em Makes and Bakes Etsy

Adjustoform Dressmakers Dummy

A dressmakers dummy is such a useful tool to have in your sewing room, from draping, to checking the fit, or to help create a straight hem and showing off your favourite dresses.  The beautiful Adjustoform Lady Valet comes with a luxurious walnut stand and is fully adjustable at 8points on the body.  It looks stunning when its in use or not!

Gift Vouchers 

The gift of choice - choose to spend your voucher on products of workshops or a combination of both.  This way you know you're going to get something you really want and you are guaranteed to enjoy picking out some lovely sewing related goodies and experiences from our shop! 

Vouchers are available in store and online.

New Sewing Machine

With sewing machines starting from £99 we have something for everyone! 

A bigger present, but what better time than Christmas to ask Father Christmas for something special!

Whether you’re looking for a starter machine or upgrading to a machine with wonderful new features such as speed control, auto needle threading, self cutting, lettering and a wide range of decorative stitches, come and talk to us about about the fantastic range of Brother sewing machines and overlockers we have available. 

All machines come with a 3 year warranty and free set up with lots of advice to help you get the most out of your new machine! 

If you need to drop more than just a hint, why not send your family or other half this helpful list? 

Happy Sewing!
