Sewing Kit for Kids

I made these sewing kits for our two nieces (ages 5 and 7) for Christmas this year. I wanted to come up something different and special for them that was craft related. I stumbled upon these on Etsy and knew I had a winner.

These bags were the perfect size to fit all their sewing goodies in. Including a big bag of stuffing to complete their projects with.

I made 7 different sewing projects for each kiddo using felt. Each project was put into a baggie along with any additional items like buttons. The projects included: bird, flower, circle, butterfly, star, heart and cupcake.

I also included this little note in each one:

Sewing Kit

Supplies:

• 2 dull tip needles
• 2 spools of thread
• Various colors of needle point thread
• 7 projects
• Large bag of stuffing
• Measuring tape
• Scissors

Each project bag has a cut out felt item to make. Some have buttons to sew on and some have additional felt pieces to attach.

Instructions:

1. Use either a backstitch or a whipstitch to sew your items.
2. Sew on buttons on additional felt pieces first.
3. Then sew most of the felt piece together, leaving room to add the stuffing.
4. Finally, sew up the last hole from where you put the stuffing in.

Yay!!! You are learning how to sew!!!

I hope the girls have a blast with their very own sewing kits!!!
