A Storybook Needlekeeper & Pin Cushion

Create a little book that will hold your needles and perhaps your sewing dreams.   Girls used to make these sweet little treasures as gifts for their moms or grandmas.   You will create a little book using the yummiest of wool felts and wool.  You may embellish with a felted cashmere rose, buttons, trims, ribbons and embroidery.  Attached to the book will be a hand fashioned little strawberry pincushion made of wool or velvet.  Inside the book there will be a lovely surprise....

I bet you can hardly wait to create it!
