i purchased this for my daughter, who is only 6 years old. she really wanted a paint set that came with tubes instead of the cheap little kid pan versions, and i figured, if im going to get her some tube paints, then maybe i should get a little travel set to keep it all together so we can take it with us on trips and adventures. i like it so much, i want to get one for myself now :) the price was great, and the little set is perfect for us! it was a nice present under the tree this year!

I have several of these plastic Kanzashi flower maker forms, but this one makes my favorite style fabric flower. All of these forms have clear instructions and are very easy to use. The flowers look just the picture on the package.

I've ordered *several* of these kanzashi flower makers, so I'll be basically copy/pasting my reviews on them since I feel the same about all of theme.

I got these to use with fabric ordered from spoonflower.com and one thing to note is that all of these are VERY small, I'd say that your design needs to be micro levels of tiny in order to be noticeable on the petals. The large, however, is much larger than the small, and looks pretty nice with a small (not too busy) pattern on it.

The patterns are all very straightforward to use, the holes are numbered, and if you take your time to gather the fabric nicely when you're pulling the thread, they're lovely!

I made mine using cotton poplin fabric, but I also attempted some using a cotton with some stretch and a brocade fabric that also had some stretch. They come out best with the basic cotton poplin very little fraying and the fabric folds very well. The fabrics with stretch, though, were much less cooperative, and want to fray WAY more while being worked with.

I've also tried just hand-folding these, and it takes me significantly longer to do. Not to mention the results aren't nearly as uniform.

But, I make flowers using these templates, glue them with E6000 to a small (about 1" diameter) circle of felt, cover a button in the same or a coordinating fabric (3/4" buttons work nicely with the small, 5/8" for x-small, and 1" for large), sew that in the middle after the glue is dried, and then attach the finished flower to a brooch, headband, or necklace. Using strong adhesives and a high-strength hand quilting thread, I've yet to have any of my crafts come apart!

If you're thinking of picking these up, they're fairly cheap and fun to use. Generally, I prefer the 5 petal flowers to the 10, but you can mix petals for different looks as well.

Great product and very easy to use. I thought it would be a lot harder but wasn't. Great and speedy arrival,

I found that it is easier to fold my own flowers than to use these templates. I like to use grosgrain ribbon, and these templates only seem to work well for fabric.

Best Quilt Pounce Pad With Chalk Powder - 4 Ounces Deals

The product works the way it is supposed to, I guess. I even had the right kind of stencil. The problem is that the combination doesn't work the way it is supposed to. You can't connect the stencil to itself to make a long border and get it to connect in the right places. The pounce pad is so imprecise you don't know when you've succeeded in marking and when you haven't.

Three decades ago, when I made my first quilt, I made my own stencil and my own pounce out of talcum powder. This certainly is better and I expect the marking would last a lot longer than the talcum powder did, but still brush away when you no longer wanted it. So, as you can tell, I understand the system. But it just did not work for me.

easy to mark quilts with this pounce, but can get a little messy. no big deal, washes off with water.

Best Deals for Quilt Pounce Pad With Chalk Powder - 4 Ounces

I saw a video of how to use this product on Nancy's Notions website. She made it look so easy--just tamp the applicator in the tray that comes with it, rub it over the stencil and there is your sewing line all ready to be quilted. Unfortunately it didn't work that way for me. You have to tamp the pad a lot to get the powder to work its way though the pad and it did not come through evenly even though I tried to shake the powder around to make sure it covered the whole pad. Then after I swiped it over the stencil the line was not very distinct--it had a halo around the lines. The part that really bothered me though was that the line rubbed off before I had it quilted. Just with the movement necessary to move the piece around while stitching caused enough movement to rub the chalk marks off. I don't know if there is a way to make the powder stick to the fabric better. I would not buy this product again.

This is the most useful gadget I've ever owned. I ended up ordering about five of them so I can keep one with each project, one just 'lying around," and one in my weaving-shop. You can also go to their website and order all the accessories, in case you lose any of them.

All of the tools are in a nice compact case but i was a little disppointed about the quality of some of them. The scissors would not open easily and the clipper on the side is extremely difficult to use. The other tools work well and are good to have. I replaced the stitch markers with some more substantial ones I had. It is great that I can just pick it up and go when I want to take a project with me and I plan on using it often.

Best Deals for The Knit Kit Essential Knitting Tools Accessories Travel Set Pink

I asked for this Knit Kit as a holiday gift and was excited to receive it. I like to knit/crochet on the go, and thought this would be perfect, as I am constantly forgetting the little things like stitch markers or tapestry needles. I like the idea of having everything in one little kit, but I have to say, the quality of these tools is REALLY low. The stitch counter constantly sticks and messes up the count, the crochet hook is really difficult to use, as it's angled to snap into the case, and the measuring tape does not pull out or retract easily. I expected a much higher quality product, especially for the price. I do like the folding scissors, but will probably just take those out and put them into a kit I make myself.

Honest reviews on The Knit Kit Essential Knitting Tools Accessories Travel Set Pink

I ordered this because I thought it was a cute novelty. It is now within my reach every time I'm knitting! I have used each item often. The only problem is that I can't get the little blade to open up but the scissors are great for clipping. I highly recomend this to knitters and crocheters alike.

I have been a knitter for many years and have nearly every accessory imaginable, but this kit is a great find. I never have to hunt for any little parts I might need while knitting everything is right there, ready to grab and go. You can size a needle, measure your work, cut yarn, stitch markers are right there with your row counter, etc. Very handy for travel, but I use it all the time at home as well. The little folding scissors worked well in my kit; I would not cut out fabric for a dress with them, but that is not their intended purpose. It is fun to see how neatly everything is so compactly integrated in one palm size unit. Get one for all your knitter friends, they will love it!

I use these for clear acrylic and mounted rubber stamps. They're fun to use because I can color different parts of the stamps in different colors, like red flower with green leaves. Do a couple of practice stamps before placing them on your project to make sure it's right. Once I stamp, I can then use as regular markers to fill in any parts that didn't stamp well or to darken the color some more. Cleans easily from stamp.

Everything that comes with this kit is nice and perfectly usable except the wire cutters and snips. The tips of the wire cutters are nicked and dull after ONE DAY of use on thin jewelry wire, and I have yet to successfully cut anything with the snips.

Pros: Nice case. I'll probably keep using the case as I replace tools that wear out. Good for travel. The 2 pairs of pliers are fine, mid-to-low-quality pliers. You don't really need much more from round-nose pliers, so I imagine they'll last the longest. The little drawer things are nice, and pretty convenient.

Cons: Tools are made of soft metal, so cutting surfaces wear extremely quickly. It would have been nice if a metal file were included. There's even an extra hoop for one.

The rounding tool is the best quality. The pliers are a rough finish so they will mar your metal. The wire cutter doesn't cut that great. I actually use an angled nail clipper to cut the wire. So, personally, I would purchase more quality tools separately and in stainless steel. If you do buy the set, coat your pliers with tool magic or just put electrical tape on the inside surface so it doesn't dig into your metal. Good luck.

When I bought The Beadalon 7 peice tool kit no where in the description did it say that I was buying a used kit...When I opened my kit the first time I was disappointed to see that all of the tools were dirty and had strange smudges and finger prints all over them. Their were even a few random hairs stuck on the tools. Who ever previously owned this kit tried to re wrap the pliers in plastic. Inside of the plastic was an smelly oily mess and the wire cutting pliers shows signs of HARD use. I am never one to write a bad review but I really thought anyone thinking of purchasing one of these kits should know what they are in for. Even the insignia on the outside is dirty...

I received 22 ml tubes which is equivalent to .744 US fluid ounces. Not even close to the 2 fl oz claimed. Their description claims 2 Fl. oz. tubes and if you look at the picture it says their are 6 x 59 ml, 2 U.S. Fl. Oz. I am requesting my money back.

Do not believe the photo or the description. The tubes in this kit are 27ml, not 2oz, and they are not the Heavy Body acrylic as advertised, but rather Liquitex's Basic paint. You are paying more for smaller amounts of cheaper quality paint. Buyer beware.

The paint is really good but please note these are really small tubes of paint not the normal size you see on most shelves.

Honest reviews on Liquitex Basics Acrylic Paint Tubes - 6 Colors

Considering the size of the tubes (22ml) one would imagine that they would be full. I was quite disappointed to find that they were not as advertised in that they were semi full, and do not in fact hold 22ml of paint. The color quality was good and rich, but they are not air sealed as most paints are with a thin foil-like seal. The tops of mine seem to have been exposed to air during production and are semi dry on the surface. Also, it is NOT Heavy Body acrylic as they advertise it, but is part of the Liquitex's Basic paint 'family.'

The size discrepancy in terms of what the seller posted them to be and what they actually are is quite significant. Buyer beware.
