Gift for 7 year old beginning to sew  

post #1 of 5
Thread Starter 
Hello!

My niece will be getting her first sewing machine for Christmas. She is 7 years old. Does anyone have a great gift idea that I could get her to go along with her sewing machine?

Thanks so much!

I saw the cutest sewing baskets at my local sewing store. I picked one up for only 7 bucks for my sister. I bet a 7 year old would really like one. Maybe some remnants too so she can get started right away with little projects.Good luck it sounds like fun.

Maybe a quilting book and fat quarters...a good first project. Or a easy starter pattern...something for her room, like pillows or something.
If you live close by maybe you can give her homemade coupons for trips to the fabric store with you or sewing lessons. I loved fabric shopping with my aunts and my mom when I was younger and when they would show me how to do things.

A nice multi color pack of good quality thread.
A cute pincushion...those wrist ones might be fun!
Fun fabric depicting something she likes.

I remember getting a sewing basket with a multicolor thread pack, measuring tape, needles, etc. for Christmas the year I got my sewing machine. I still use it!
