Hi all,
here is a small selection of the many sewing and leatherworking items in my home. The large embroidery needles came from my grandfather, the steel scissors from my grandmother and the sewing machine oil, along with a hefty
cast iron sewing machine, from northern India (RIP suitcase). This small sewing kit lives somewhere easy to access. Large quantities of thread, buttons and other more specialised kit live elsewhere.
Items pictured are:
2x
scissors
2x freebie sewing kits from hotels with a needle and thread
1x sewing machine oil (stored next to the kit, not inside, as it would leak)
1x thread cutter
1x straight embroidery needle
2x curved embroidery/sailmaking needles
1x
thimble
6x safety pins
5x
straight needles (these roll up in the leather, as in the second photo)
lots of leatherworking needles (these are stored in the wooden case)
