Needle books are a great way to keep track of your needles and pins while traveling, at workshops, or around the house. Jody Alexander leads you throught the creation of a needle book made out of fabric that you probably have on hand that will be perfect to keep or give as a gift to your favorite sewist. Perfect use for those extra pieces of fabric made during Jody's Hand-Stitched Sampler Books Daily Practice, or other stitching or surface design workshops. Customize this sweet needle book with mending stitches, patches, or surface to design to make it your own.
Here’s what you’ll need:
- One piece of fabric for the needle book cover: 7 x 9 inches
- One or two pieces of felt for the needle book pages: 4 x 6 inches each (if you don’t have felt then any fabric will do)
- One piece of fabric for optional pocket: 2.5 x 5 inches
- Thread - threads that will work: machine thread, pearl cotton, sashiko, embroidery
- Needles that fit your thread
- Pins
- Scissors
- Thread snips (optional)
- Pencil or fabric marke

It seems that this was a livestream at one point. It is rather 'chatty' for someone that does not know these ladies. In any event, the class is easy to follow. The project is not complicated and the needlebook is functional and has a nice aesthetic. Thank you.
