Pattern & Supplies

· Minki’s Needle Book pattern (please purchase and read prior to class)

· Sewing machine in good working order (remember to bring your power cord, foot pedal, and bobbins).

· Basic sewing supplies

· Rotary cutter, ruler, and cutting mat

· Fabric scissors (opt – scalloped pinking shears for decorative edging in select areas)

· Thread: Sewing machine thread for construction and thread for hand sewing.

· Needles: Sewing machine needles appropriate for your fabrics and hand sewing needles.

· Pins or clips

· Seam ripper

· Fabric marking tool

· Small iron and pressing surface, if available

Fabric & Materials

· Assorted cotton fabrics for the needle book exterior and interior*

· Fabric scraps for the decorative details*

· Lightweight fusible interfacing*

· Batting or felt, as specified in the pattern* (I feel wool felt works better than craft felt. Quilters Bliss does not carry felt).

· Embroidery floss and needle (see NOTE below)

· Optional decorative trims or embellishments

· *If you are wanting more needle pages or additional add-ons than what is shown in the pattern, you will need to bring extra fabric/fleece/felt.

Note: If you desire to include embroidered elements in the book, I recommend you complete all hand embroidery work prior to class. Please let me know if you have any questions or need assistance.
