I love sewing, particularly hand sewing.  Some of my most treasured memories of my Mother are of her sewing.  She always used a beeswax block to strengthen her thread, hence I have made and included my beeswax thread conditioner in the set. The set comprises a pin cushion, magnetic needle minder and a beeswax thread conditioner. 
 
The set comprises three pieces:-
1.
A mini pin cushion in bee fabric using a small wooden ring as the frame.  Keep all your pins handy in one spot.  You will notice there's a little gold bee on the side of the ring.
To give an indication of size the pin cushion base is approx 6cm.  (pins not included)
2.
A little gold tin with a block of beeswax, this acts as a thread conditioner - it's prevents tangles in your thread, strengthens the thread and makes it a little easier to thread your needle. Can be used for embroidery thread, for sewing hems and buttons, in fact it's perfect for any hand sewing at all.
Simply run your thread over the block, repeat to get the desired coating on your thread. 
3.
A little magnetic needle minder.  Have you ever put your needle down and can't find it again?  With the needle minder you can just pop your needle onto it and it will keep it in place until you need it again.  It is magnetised so you can place it on any surface, or you can used the second magnet on the back to place on the underside of any fabric project you are working on and it will stay attached to the fabric for you.
 
I love bees and there is nothing more creative or therapeutic than hand sewing, so I have combined the two.  I love these little sets and I hope you do as well.  They make a lovely gift for any sewer, or for yourself.
 
***Please note these are hand made using all my smaller pieces fabric , therefore each one is unique as the fabric may vary, but all will be in lovely bee fabric.  Photos show some of the pin chusion and needle minder fabric.
