Gold Vintage Floral Embroidery Tool Set in Tin by Wizardi F07-M13-4-gold

Keep your tools together with the Gold Vintage Floral Embroidery Tool Set in Tin, a matching embroidery tool set by Wizardi: a five-piece antique gold embroidery set with raised floral relief, made up of scissors with oval finger rings, a thimble, a needle case, a stiletto awl and a slotted bodkin.

Stitchers say a good pair of embroidery scissors should never cut paper, because paper dulls the fine points that make clean snips close to the fabric.

Why this set: if you stitch, quilt, felt or do needlepoint, these are the tools you reach for every session: sharp pointed scissors for floss tails, a thimble for pushing the needle through, a case to keep needles safe, a stiletto for opening holes in fabric and a bodkin for threading ribbon and cord. The tin keeps all five tools together in a project bag, and it doubles as a gift box.

In the box: embroidery scissors with stainless steel blades, a thimble, a needle case, a stiletto awl and a bodkin, set in a printed keepsake tin with a black foam insert. Not included: needles, thread or project materials.

Care: use them for thread, floss, yarn and wool only, wipe the blades dry after use, keep them closed when stored, and add a drop of sewing machine oil to the pivot now and then to keep the action smooth.

A thoughtful gift for embroiderers, cross stitchers, quilters, knitters and needle felters, or a small treat for your own sewing box.
