Jeanette Douglas has designed a few small kits and let me just say they are awesome! I ordered a few of them a few weeks ago and below is the first one that I stitched.
The kit included the floss for the cording, the buttons, the linen, and the felt backing fabric. All of this for just $15 CDN at Traditional Stitches. I think that's a pretty good deal. I only ordered the scissor fob from this series, but I think I'll have to get the other two because I loved stitching it and putting it together so much.
Below is a close-up of the front: (sorry for the blurriness. I used the macro function on my camera, but it didn't seem to work.)
After I stitched the cute little Quaker design, I knew I would have to finish it right away... I want to finish everything lately. This was only my second time making twisted cording and I still can't believe I have put off making this stuff for so long. Jeanette includes complete finishing instructions with the kit too.
Well, there you have it. A cute little scissor fob and it only took a day or so to make. If you haven't seen Jeanette Douglas' little kits, you should check out her site. I've been enjoying kits a lot lately and I will probably get a few more of these. They are such cute quick little projects.

That's very pretty, and excellent value too!
I just love Jeannette's stuff and that is so cool and beautifully finished!
Such a cute finish!!! I love the way it looks like a flower :) And your cording turned out so pretty, with the two colours like that! I've never tried a two-tone one, but now I think I'm going to have to do so ;) It's so nice when kits come with everything you need, as it's so fun to final-finish something fast and just have it *done*!
