If you know me, you know I have way too many ideas floating in my head. Some are stitches, some are colors and some are products. I tend to jump on the ideas pretty quick, get them together and sometimes, ahem, forget to share them with you. I am a magpie. What’s the newest sparkly thing in my world?
Allow me to introduce our ladybug bags. These are most of the things you need to make beading easier, more fun and travel friendly. We have curated all the supplies, beading thread, beading needles, wax, tiny super sharp scissors, thimble pads for your fingers so you don’t get a permanent hole and a beading needle threader that won’t break in a minute. All of this goodness is packed into a tiny 7″ zippered pouch. Leave everything in the pouch and you always have your beady supplies at hand. Because that pouch is so darn cute it needed a project bag to match! Your travel project or ornament and threads will fit happily in the project bag.
Both bags are custom made with the cutest ladybug print fabric from Tula Pink. Yep, love, love, love her fabrics. The backs of the bags are black and white dots and stripes because that goes with everything. And because I have to up the ante on everything they have tassels!!! They are just the cutest little tassels.

If you are thinking ahead to the holidays this would make a great gift for a stitching friend. (Or yourself, sometimes Santa needs a hint.) Here’s the link to order.
Other super fun additions to the shop that I think are must haves for your stitching stash are these fabulous thread sets. Au Ver a Soie metallics are my absolute favorites. I love this set of fluorescent colors in #4 Braid! The colors are not just for Halloween. These are my favorite pinks and green and oranges. Hmmm, maybe we need a canvas to showcase these colors in a non Halloweeny way. See, my mind wanders. Here’s the link.

How often do you find yourself searching for a good orange metallic? Well. the search for that is over! YAY! Four yummy shades of Au Ver a Soie metallic in shades of orange that blend beautifully with three pretty Soie d’Algers. Another must have. Here’s their link.
