great to have a bunch of different sizes available! sturdy safety pins	5
This is one of my favorite embossing folders!	5
Cuts small designs but not as stable and secure feeling when gripped as other Olfa cutters.	3
Have all the sizes when I need them Great	5
Since I began needing reading glasses, I appreciate inventions like big eye needles more and more. It certainly saves time when you need to thread them. These are nice needles and they are easy to work both threading and quilting.	5
I love watercolor and it is super popular right now so I knew I needed this set when I saw some of my favorite YouTubers using it. I am not disappointed The colors are creamy and really versatile. I find I can easily get from a wash to almost acrylic pretty easily. There is also a unique set of 'metallics' at the bottom, a pearlescent, which I use a lot, a gold, and a copper which I haven't used much. The pearlescent is very transparent and adds a nice touch on top or mixed with other colors. These are removeable little pots of color which is nice or terrible depending on your perspective. It is easy to knock them all out of the box, but they are labeled so it is easy to put them back in the right order. Also if you just need a couple colors you could pull just those out and not have to have the whole box out. The colors are labeled with numbers and in, I believe, Japanese. There is no name of yellow ochre or alizarin crimson. There is a swatch grid on the inside of the lid which helps to remember which color is which. There is no place to mix colors. Overall, I still love these creamy little pots of color.	4
Just what was needed and good product. For the price they are a very good product.	5
Not comfortable, slipped upwards on ring	1
I got this as my first face painting kit! I loved the cakes and the brushes, this really helped me to get started in face painting. The sponges are amazing. FYI instead of using them whole, take a sharp pair of scissors and cut them in half and they will go a lot longer. I love em. The book was a great addition too so that you can attempt different faces. I would however if you are first starting out do the ones that don't require intricate detail as you have to learn how to use the brush to get different looks. But for me it was nice to see what to aspire too. I would recommend this to a newbie and then once you've mastered this try other face painting products.	5
I have nothing to compare those two but from all the reviews Ive read and all the times Ive used it it has protecting my pages from watercolor scrubbing I do let my just so cure overnight and it works fantastically Ive also added marble dust to it and that is a new project Im using but I want to protect then pages from my watercolor in some of my color books that are not so thick papered and I have just begun using this product and it has not change the color of my pages so that is a plus and so far I haven't had a bleed through and it really is icy transparent. Its also archival in non-toxic. Attached is a WIP from the coloring book Romantuc Country and some Sennelier paints Im using from my own pallette. It wa a great outcome and my paints layered and dried quite nicely but I could lift and mix in the page as well!	5
These tiny beads were packaged for convenience and ease of use. I am enjoying using them.	5
excellent Singer...	5
Not quite as fine a tip as I anticipated, but better than others I tried.	4
Thrilled with the gridded plastic template. Should have bought more!!! Will reorder when I have the time and money. Great product	5
I received my buttons today - as quickly as they were promised. I happened to wander through the Craft department at Walmart later, and noticed the same buttons. They were cheaper through Amazon. Yay! I purchased them as an add on item for a little more than $1. I broke open the package immediately - because I have a weird addiction to buttons and couldn't stop myself. They seem to be of good quality plastic, and are about as thick as coin. I haven't counted them, but there's a bunch in the package. The reddish pink buttons are opaque, the others are not. All of the colors are vivid, and I think they're the perfect combination for Spring and Summer crafts. I have included a couple of photos. The first photo is of the package, as it arrived. In the second photo I placed the yellow (largest) button on a quarter, and the green (smallest) button on a dime - for reference as to sizes. There is a tiny variation between some of the colors, but not much. I also lined up the other colors, and placed the green (smallest) button on top of the yellow (largest) button. As you can see, the green button is smaller than the others, barely -so I guess they are assorted sizes. As I mentioned before, I am a bit of a button addict, but I'm really happy with my "bargain buttons". I can't wait to start working on some new crafts!	4
it is beautiful will use often	5
I use them every day.	5
The skeins are so small I don't know what you'd make with them unless you used all of them in a multi colored knit item. I like the yarn and the colors, but these are tiny!	3
Happy to have found just what I needed without driving here and there. A good product that makes quilting easier.	5
Nothing beats Gingher in my opinion and these don't disappoint!	5
I love these. I needed these small tips for detail work. I would purchase again if needed	5
This marking pen is handy: one side has ink that disappears with humidity, while the other side contains ink that removes with water. These pens never last long enough but are invaluable in the sewing room.	4
This is a lovely and soft variegated yarn in colors for a girl. I like it for teenage and younger though I would use it myself in a scarf or hat. I just think that the colors would be really appealing for a younger girl. The yarn is softer than a lot of Red Heart yarns and you get considerably less than you do with the Super Saver skeins. That is to be expected due to the difference in the quality of the yarn. While the yarn is noted as a 4 worsted, I found it to be a little on the thin side. Not so much as a 3, just a tad lighter than most of the worsted than I have worked with from Red Heart. This is true of all of the types of Gumdrop yarn that I have worked with. I just make sure and do a test square to make sure my stitches and tension are dead on. I like to crochet with this yarn and enjoy the bright splashes of color as I go along my project.	5
They dull too quickly and the eyes are minuscule.	2
Decent quality newsprint paper, lighter than I expected in color. However, it is very good for the price. The binding is a bit shabby after you use it very often but that is to be expected. All in all it is a good buy.	4
I make mini-albums and need quality cardstock. Prima is the best and the designs are really hard to resist.	5
Great, been waiting for these. Thank you , Linda	5
Well made, would order again. they have a little curve in them due to packaging but it doesn't affect the way they hang when worn.	5
Love the Cricut brand adhesive mats! They truly are the best I have found to work with. They last longer and firmly hold the paper in place without tearing it.	5
I do love Canson, however, this is not the best watercolor paper. I used it for color studies and my swatches. It is great for that. I would not use this for a masterpiece.	4
Perfect addition to my 'crafting horde'! So much fun I've done little else for 2 weeks. Might call out sick next week so I can keep playing. I've barely scratched the surface on what amazing things this cutter can do. Bored? GET ONE! And for the love of God...read the manual first!	5
I wanted these to add to my handmade items which I give as gifts. They were exactly what I expected and I am very pleased with my purchase.	5
Bought these for my crafting grandchildren. They love using them/	5
I love the shape and size of this hoop, which can be used for both hand and machine embroidery. I am using it for freehand machine embroidery. The fabric hoops up easily with no problem sliding under the presser foot. This hoop glides on the bed of my machine and I do not use anything special on the machine bed. I am going to order another one for hand embroidery. Nice quality hardwood so this was worth the investment for me.	5
Just what I needed. It is roomy. Has extra pockets. Fits all my yarn I need for a project, Easy handle for carrying.	5
You cant go wrong with KamSnaps! The BEST!	5
hello, we needed to make some repairs to some nylon material. this tube of stitch adhesive did the job, but required drying overnight. it seemed to us that this item looks, feels, and smells like white glue. it was not instant and took awhile to dry. following the instructions, a similar nylon material was used as a backing. that dried, but the original material needed another spot of glue and having pushed it back down to the backing material, it stayed glued. one thing is noticeable, regular white glue dries hard. this glue makes the material still somewhat flexible. so, it does work on nylon material. but, yrmv... great product and delivery.	4
This would wind my thread in a conical shape which my brother did not like so back it went, pronto.	1
I would not order these again. They are so,so cheap. They bend easily. I come out better making my own. The only thing good I can say about these head pins is they were delivered on time.	2
Exactly as described. My children and I enjoyed melting them down to create sun catchers as a home school craft during the summer months.	5
need more thanks	5
Wonderful kraft paper for decorating. We used it for the walls for VBS, cut out nicely, overall great product.	5
Exactly what I needed! Not too small and the price was definitely right! I used these in college for small paintings and now I'm trying to discover my love of painting again (along with other arting). They also came super-fast!	5
My daughter really loves these! She hasn't complained about any of them and when I see her writing with them they seem to write very smoothly and there are so many colors! She uses them to color and also for writing things which is nice because it gets boring for a kid writing in a plain pen! I got these on a sale just before Christmas, there were a few other brands that were similar and for around the same price and I picked these ones based on the reviews!	5
This is basically the same machine as the Brother 540D with the main exception being that it lacks the built-in Disney patterns. If those patterns are not of interest, this is a better buy since, at the time of this review, the 525 model is priced about $80 less than the 540D. Its not necessary to know how to use a sewing machine to use this, but some basic comfort with sewing machine operation is a plus, especially with regard to setup and threading. The manual is OK, but could would greatly benefit from more diagrams/pictures (or, ideally, a video guide). Its not horribly difficult I certainly don't want to scare off any newcomers to embroidery, but don't expect it to be a take it out of the box and push a button type of product. You do need to invest some time and effort into learning how to use it. As with the 540D, the 525 cannot be used as a sewing machine. It is only for embroidery work. The screen is touch sensitive, and is a big help in smoothing out the learning curve. Its not the best resolution, but its usable. The overall build quality of the 525 seems to be identical to that of the 540D. It has a solid heft to it despite a lot of plastic, but remains pretty easy to deal with weight-wise, so stowing it when its not in use is not a chore. The motor has a nice, solid hum to it that suggests its not cheaply made on the inside. The really impressive feature is the ability to download new designs via the ibrodery website. The website is nicely organized for browsing and getting ideas. The prices are mostly reasonable ($4 to $7 is typical), and theres a free design of the month that is sometimes worthwhile. There are also trademarked designs so, should you want to add some Disney, Nickelodeon, etc. designs to the 525, you can purchase them. Its worth signing up for their newsletter since they have decent sales and bundle deals. At this price point, this is a solid 5-star machine. It allows me to turn out work that is of a quality thats far above my actual embroidery skill set. Well worth considering if you're interested in embroidery work but don't have the hands to do it the old fashioned way.	5
These feathers are nice and just the size I wanted, but I wish the colors would have been a bit more brighter!	4
Beautiful beads! I used them right away!	5
fantastic vinyl. works as expected.	5
Chrysocolla is expensive. So, these slightly rough-cut beads will work as textural accents.	3
Love my sewing machine	5
Finally found these! I have been looking for this exact leather thimble for months, finally found it on AMAZON!!! Thrilled. Thank you.	5
This sewing machine is just awful. As a recent college grad, I was excited to start using some free time to make nice gifts for my family and friends. This machine was middle of the line (not too cheap, not too expensive) with some extra features and the Singer name. I thought purchasing a Singer on sale was a steal but this machine has been the worst thing I've ever purchased. It worked fine for the first project but then something inside must have come loose and the thread will get completely knotted and stuck in the presser foot and in the bobbin, bobbin case, and all over and around the inside parts. When this happens, the material has to be cut out from the machine since the machine literally sews the material to itself. I've taken the machine apart several times and re-aligned it, but this only helps for about 1 seam length. Then the machine starts clunking and making weird noises and catching material again. DO NOT BUY THIS MACHINE!!! Spend the extra money and get a good machine. It'll be worth all of the frustration, wasted time, wasted fabric, wasted thread, and rushing to purchase last minute gifts because the beautiful gift you were almost done making has been ruined by your machine. I am not a complete novice, I've been sewing on my mom's machine since about 3rd grade so this is definately not operator error. My mom has had the same machine since before I was born (almost 30 years) and it's never needed more than routine maintenance. This machine is a load of junk not worth the price to fix it. I am just going to disassemble and recycle.	1
I just recieved my new Cricut Air for my birthday and was so excited to get started with making masterpieces that I had to go searching for all of my supplies. Of course I went to amazon first for the 2 day shipping and I found this product. I have to say that I love it. It cuts so well. It is definitely a great product for the money. I just love all of the possibilities. I would definitely recommend this product and I will be buying again.	4
Not as much varierty as I had hoped for.	3
I use these for craft and scrapbook projects. Fun and easy to use for cutting shapes or whatever your imagination wants. No complaints.	5
Alot heavier than thought great item	5
Came sooner than expected. I would buy from this seller again. TIP: I read this from one of the reviews, Oil your Serger before using. I'm not sure why they state this at the end of the manual, page 57, Oiling, under REMARKS! It should be on the first page under a heading that reads "Before Using". That being said "I love this machine". I read all the reviews and did a couple of months of research, and for an entry level Serger, this is a wonderful product. Serge's well and I had no problems rethreading the whole machine from scratch! One of the white spools (upper looper) ran out and I panicked (lol) sat frozen for a moment and thought about all the reviews I had read and decided this machine was not going into a closet, never to be used again, so I bucked up and got brave and proceeded to start threading the machine. Wahla! I could not believe how easy it was and was relived that my wonderful little Serger could stay on my desk and continue to be used :-) Thank you to everyone for submitting a review on this product, the reviews were helpful in making my decision to purchase this Serger and I'm very happy with it.	5
Works great on my ten year old Euro pro machine! And free motions nicely without the expense of high end machinery.	5
Great supplier and product	5
Really loved all the feet and am enjoying how to use them. Am using the Sewing Machine Accessory Bible to help explain them and other great sewing information. So much cheaper than buying in the store or one by one.	5
Like the case but now wish I have brought the size up.	5
My daughter loves this brand. It's her favorite.	5
While these embossing folders are smaller than other ones on the market they do have some great designs. The only problem that I have found is if you use thinner paper, then the embossing can tear it apart. How to fix that I haven't figured out yet. But the embossing folders will look great also when you ink them before running them through your die cutting machine. Just try it out on a scrap piece of paper first so that you will know if it will tear your paper or not. This way you can save your more expensive paper from being ruined!	4
I have a Pandora bracelet and wanted more of the Murano glass bead charms, but the Pandora brand ones are about $50 each. I decided to try these, figuring I couldn't go wrong with that price. The beads are pretty! Of course there were some I didn't care for, but there are some I really like, too! They fit my Pandora bracelet fine. Can't beat these for the price!	5
Bought this and a "Spike" fur piece from the same company, to compare and see what we liked best. We are keeping both! Different look and feel between the two, but seriously the softest faux fur I have (almost) ever felt, especially at this price. A bit shed-y which I am hoping will stop once we've vacuumed it and lint rolled.	5
I have two - the smaller and this one. Excellent product. I love the self healing. Protects my counter and table when I'm cutting a multitude of mediums. Would purchase again.	5
Makes ironing easier	5
11 Different border stamps. Each measuring just under 5.75". I purchased these border stamps mainly because of the bold stitched dash lines. When I received this set I was glad I purchased it because of the other designs. The bold stitched dash lines look great for heat embossing on black card stock with white embossing powder.	4
Works great, makes quick work of pom poms. Seems a little flimsy but it does what its supposed to, also WAY cheaper than the local craft store that wanted $10 just for ONE!	4
Just as I expected heavy consistency and peaks a little if needed	5
Described as the picture perfect. Excellent shipping before the date.	5
This came with so many brushes I haven't even used them all. Great buy.	5
Haven't used them yet, but made well and look forward to trying them out.	5
Good product performing as advertised	5
Nice items	4
Excellent light stabilizer.	5
OMG, it is SO SMALL. Fits to the second knuckle of my pinky finger. It's about a half an inch across.	3
Two of the scissors don't work properly. You can only cut small pieces of paper. If you try to cut a full sheet, the ends of the scissors rip and smash the paper.	1
Looks same as image	4
Great glue for my projects. Thank you.	5
weeds easily and looks great	5
Just what we were looking for and good quality to boot.	5
The thread keeps breaking, the plastic spool has pieces of plastic sticking out and causing the thread to get caught and break.	3
Saved my waist pack! My waistpack buckle broke and I used this to fix it. I'm an avid hiker and it save a perfectly good waistpack. It holds tight and was easy to use.	5
Pretty useless. Wobbly construction makes it impossible to achieve perfectly straight lines. Makes me crazy.	1
Not what I expected. Not a swivel lock and much thinner. My mistake probably didn't read description correctly.	2
The bobbin quality is good but I have had a problem with many of them. I have a model 66 and a model 15 treadle machine that use these bobbins. So far I've found about 1/3 of the bobbins I got will not fit on the bobbin spindles.....the bobbin holes just are too tight. Either they are flawed....the bobbins were not manufactured a consistent size or someone has accidentally mixed the wrong size bobbins together. For the price though, I sure will not complain. They have worked well for me otherwise and I've been happy with them....I'm glad to have all the extra bobbins on hand and I still wouldn't mind buying more of them. I just used another sewing machine I own to wind some of the tight bobbins for me. However, if someone owns only one machine, they might have a problem winding thread on some of these bobbins!	3
This is amazing, Love It	5
Really good, but overpriced and too small. I thought I was buying the larger size. The larger size is definitely to expensive to try to see if it is big enought	3
It's more orange than red but, I really like. I would ordered it again.	5
I have not had a chance to try it. I hope that it will work well	3
This is a great cutter. I like that you just squeeze to use, and when you let go, the blade retracts. It is easy to squeeze, and comfortable to hold.	5
What a great package. Instructions are good and the variety of colors has contributed to quality projects! W ould Recommend	5
I use these needles for hand piecing and quilting. They are a bit longer than a between and easier for me to handle. They are strong and can take my not very delicate touch.	5
A little hard to use but I am still learning how to use it. I think it will get better.	3
excellent, low price	5
I was afraid that the sticks would come broken from being tossed about during shipping. Thankfully all of them are in one piece. I have never used water soluble oil pastel before therefore I did not know what to expect. However, the result from my first try is not shabby at all. I use the 3 shades of yellow (pale to orange) to fill out the blank area from a coloring page I was working on using US Art Supply's water brush. The result was satisfying. The pastel touched the paper between waxed crayon and regular oil pastel. If I used too much force, bits would crumble. However, the color is opaque enough that even at a light touch it adhered to the paper nicely. I like the result and will definitely use it more in color blending. (the rest of the coloring mediums are metallic markers, metallic pencils, and metallic water color paint; only the big block of yellow area is done with water soluble oil pastel)	4
Been using all this year as a BOM for our quilting guild. Love the patterns and ideas by Lori Holt.	5
It really does not slip on any surface and it saves the heel of your shoe also	5
This works very well on my towel projects. So much more affordable and seemingly better product than joanns	5

I got these on a sale just before Christmas, there were a few other brands that were similar and for around the same price and I picked these ones based on the reviews!

This is basically the same machine as the Brother 540D with the main exception being that it lacks the built-in Disney patterns. If those patterns are not of interest, this is a better buy since, at the time of this review, the 525 model is priced about $80 less than the 540D. Its not necessary to know how to use a sewing machine to use this, but some basic comfort with sewing machine operation is a plus, especially with regard to setup and threading. The manual is OK, but could would greatly benefit from more diagrams/pictures (or, ideally, a video guide). Its not horribly difficult I certainly don't want to scare off any newcomers to embroidery, but don't expect it to be a take it out of the box and push a button type of product. You do need to invest some time and effort into learning how to use it. As with the 540D, the 525 cannot be used as a sewing machine. It is only for embroidery work. The screen is touch sensitive, and is a big help in smoothing out the learning curve. Its not the best resolution, but its usable. The overall build quality of the 525 seems to be identical to that of the 540D. It has a solid heft to it despite a lot of plastic, but remains pretty easy to deal with weight-wise, so stowing it when its not in use is not a chore. The motor has a nice, solid hum to it that suggests its not cheaply made on the inside. The really impressive feature is the ability to download new designs via the ibrodery website. The website is nicely organized for browsing and getting ideas. The prices are mostly reasonable ($4 to $7 is typical), and theres a free design of the month that is sometimes worthwhile. There are also trademarked designs so, should you want to add some Disney, Nickelodeon, etc. designs to the 525, you can purchase them. Its worth signing up for their newsletter since they have decent sales and bundle deals. At this price point, this is a solid 5-star machine. It allows me to turn out work that is of a quality thats far above my actual embroidery skill set. Well worth considering if you're interested in embroidery work but don't have the hands to do it the old fashioned way.

These feathers are nice and just the size I wanted, but I wish the colors would have been a bit more brighter!

4

Beautiful beads! I used them right away!

5

fantastic vinyl. works as expected.

5

Chrysocolla is expensive. So, these slightly rough-cut beads will work as textural accents.

Love my sewing machine

Finally found these! I have been looking for this exact leather thimble for months, finally found it on AMAZON!!! Thrilled. Thank you.

This sewing machine is just awful. As a recent college grad, I was excited to start using some free time to make nice gifts for my family and friends. This machine was middle of the line (not too cheap, not too expensive) with some extra features and the Singer name. I thought purchasing a Singer on sale was a steal but this machine has been the worst thing I've ever purchased. It worked fine for the first project but then something inside must have come loose and the thread will get completely knotted and stuck in the presser foot and in the bobbin, bobbin case, and all over and around the inside parts. When this happens, the material has to be cut out from the machine since the machine literally sews the material to itself. I've taken the machine apart several times and re-aligned it, but this only helps for about 1 seam length. Then the machine starts clunking and making weird noises and catching material again. DO NOT BUY THIS MACHINE!!! Spend the extra money and get a good machine. It'll be worth all of the frustration, wasted time, wasted fabric, wasted thread, and rushing to purchase last minute gifts because the beautiful gift you were almost done making has been ruined by your machine. I am not a complete novice, I've been sewing on my mom's machine since about 3rd grade so this is definately not operator error. My mom has had the same machine since before I was born (almost 30 years) and it's never needed more than routine maintenance. This machine is a load of junk not worth the price to fix it. I am just going to disassemble and recycle.

I just recieved my new Cricut Air for my birthday and was so excited to get started with making masterpieces that I had to go searching for all of my supplies. Of course I went to amazon first for the 2 day shipping and I found this product. I have to say that I love it. It cuts so well. It is definitely a great product for the money. I just love all of the possibilities. I would definitely recommend this product and I will be buying again.

4

Not as much varierty as I had hoped for.

3

I use these for craft and scrapbook projects. Fun and easy to use for cutting shapes or whatever your imagination wants. No complaints.

5

Alot heavier than thought great item

5

Came sooner than expected. I would buy from this seller again. TIP: I read this from one of the reviews, Oil your Serger before using. I'm not sure why they state this at the end of the manual, page 57, Oiling, under REMARKS! It should be on the first page under a heading that reads "Before Using". That being said "I love this machine". I read all the reviews and did a couple of months of research, and for an entry level Serger, this is a wonderful product. Serge's well and I had no problems rethreading the whole machine from scratch! One of the white spools (upper looper) ran out and I panicked (lol) sat frozen for a moment and thought about all the reviews I had read and decided this machine was not going into a closet, never to be used again, so I bucked up and got brave and proceeded to start threading the machine. Wahla! I could not believe how easy it was and was relived that my wonderful little Serger could stay on my desk and continue to be used :-) Thank you to everyone for submitting a review on this product, the reviews were helpful in making my decision to purchase this Serger and I'm very happy with it.

Works great on my ten year old Euro pro machine! And free motions nicely without the expense of high end machinery.

5

Great supplier and product

5

Really loved all the feet and am enjoying how to use them. Am using the Sewing Machine Accessory Bible to help explain them and other great sewing information. So much cheaper than buying in the store or one by one.

5

Like the case but now wish I have brought the size up.

5

My daughter loves this brand. It's her favorite.

5

While these embossing folders are smaller than other ones on the market they do have some great designs. The only problem that I have found is if you use thinner paper, then the embossing can tear it apart. How to fix that I haven't figured out yet. But the embossing folders will look great also when you ink them before running them through your die cutting machine. Just try it out on a scrap piece of paper first so that you will know if it will tear your paper or not. This way you can save your more expensive paper from being ruined!

I have a Pandora bracelet and wanted more of the Murano glass bead charms, but the Pandora brand ones are about $50 each. I decided to try these, figuring I couldn't go wrong with that price. The beads are pretty! Of course there were some I didn't care for, but there are some I really like, too! They fit my Pandora bracelet fine. Can't beat these for the price!

5

Bought this and a "Spike" fur piece from the same company, to compare and see what we liked best. We are keeping both! Different look and feel between the two, but seriously the softest faux fur I have (almost) ever felt, especially at this price. A bit shed-y which I am hoping will stop once we've vacuumed it and lint rolled.

5

I have two - the smaller and this one. Excellent product. I love the self healing. Protects my counter and table when I'm cutting a multitude of mediums. Would purchase again.

5

Makes ironing easier

5

11 Different border stamps. Each measuring just under 5.75". I purchased these border stamps mainly because of the bold stitched dash lines. When I received this set I was glad I purchased it because of the other designs. The bold stitched dash lines look great for heat embossing on black card stock with white embossing powder.

4

Works great, makes quick work of pom poms. Seems a little flimsy but it does what its supposed to, also WAY cheaper than the local craft store that wanted $10 just for ONE!

4

Just as I expected heavy consistency and peaks a little if needed

5

Described as the picture perfect. Excellent shipping before the date.

5

This came with so many brushes I haven't even used them all. Great buy.

5

Haven't used them yet, but made well and look forward to trying them out.

5

Good product performing as advertised

5

Nice items

4

Excellent light stabilizer.

5

OMG, it is SO SMALL. Fits to the second knuckle of my pinky finger. It's about a half an inch across.

3

Two of the scissors don't work properly. You can only cut small pieces of paper. If you try to cut a full sheet, the ends of the scissors rip and smash the paper.

1

Looks same as image

4

Great glue for my projects. Thank you.

5

weeds easily and looks great

5

Just what we were looking for and good quality to boot.

5

The thread keeps breaking, the plastic spool has pieces of plastic sticking out and causing the thread to get caught and break.

3

Saved my waist pack! My waistpack buckle broke and I used this to fix it. I'm an avid hiker and it save a perfectly good waistpack. It holds tight and was easy to use.

5

Pretty useless. Wobbly construction makes it impossible to achieve perfectly straight lines. Makes me crazy.

1

Not what I expected. Not a swivel lock and much thinner. My mistake probably didn't read description correctly.

2

The bobbin quality is good but I have had a problem with many of them. I have a model 66 and a model 15 treadle machine that use these bobbins. So far I've found about 1/3 of the bobbins I got will not fit on the bobbin spindles.....the bobbin holes just are too tight. Either they are flawed....the bobbins were not manufactured a consistent size or someone has accidentally mixed the wrong size bobbins together. For the price though, I sure will not complain. They have worked well for me otherwise and I've been happy with them....I'm glad to have all the extra bobbins on hand and I still wouldn't mind buying more of them. I just used another sewing machine I own to wind some of the tight bobbins for me. However, if someone owns only one machine, they might have a problem winding thread on some of these bobbins!

3

This is amazing, Love It

5

Really good, but overpriced and too small. I thought I was buying the larger size. The larger size is definitely to expensive to try to see if it is big enought

3

It's more orange than red but, I really like. I would ordered it again.

5

I have not had a chance to try it. I hope that it will work well

3

This is a great cutter. I like that you just squeeze to use, and when you let go, the blade retracts. It is easy to squeeze, and comfortable to hold.

5

What a great package. Instructions are good and the variety of colors has contributed to quality projects! W ould Recommend

5

I use these needles for hand piecing and quilting. They are a bit longer than a between and easier for me to handle. They are strong and can take my not very delicate touch.

5

A little hard to use but I am still learning how to use it. I think it will get better.

3

excellent, low price

5

I was afraid that the sticks would come broken from being tossed about during shipping. Thankfully all of them are in one piece. I have never used water soluble oil pastel before therefore I did not know what to expect. However, the result from my first try is not shabby at all. I use the 3 shades of yellow (pale to orange) to fill out the blank area from a coloring page I was working on using US Art Supply's water brush. The result was satisfying. The pastel touched the paper between waxed crayon and regular oil pastel. If I used too much force, bits would crumble. However, the color is opaque enough that even at a light touch it adhered to the paper nicely. I like the result and will definitely use it more in color blending. (the rest of the coloring mediums are metallic markers, metallic pencils, and metallic water color paint; only the big block of yellow area is done with water soluble oil pastel)

Been using all this year as a BOM for our quilting guild. Love the patterns and ideas by Lori Holt.

5

It really does not slip on any surface and it saves the heel of your shoe also

5

This works very well on my towel projects. So much more affordable and seemingly better product than joanns
