Anita's Stitching

I have begun stitching in 1978. For the last 10 years, my stitching has been with "smalls". I love to use beads and ribbons and always looking for new ways for finishing. My email addresses is anita@anitalittlestitches.com.

A few updates on buttons, charts, gadgets and Kelmscott scissors


A few new things here and there for a update...
I add a lot of new buttons. You can tell Christmas is coming very soon.

I have added 2 new gadgets:
http://www.anitalittlestitches.com/accessories.html

The first one is Thread Zap:

Trims, burns, or melts thread with one touch. No more frayed ends. Tip heats instantly with the push of a button. Extra-fine tip allows for precision application. Ideal for finishing beadweaving & stringing projects. Battery-operated.

Red Buzz for computer and sewing machine. It is very neat. Let take a closer picture to see how it works. One part you can clean your computer screen with and the brush will clean your computer key board and sewing machine. I love it. It is only $5.00.





2 new sewing patterns: "Annie Unrein On the Go" and "Hot Who! Hot Pads by Susie Shore Design"
