I just recently started sewing again, and thought this would be a nice little item to have, it has all the things you would need for sewing. There are plenty of threads, in lots of different colors. It does have several storage areas, and all the basics. Some of the items are small, but for the beginner they are very good. I ended up taking out what I would use, and putting the box up on the cupboard. It would be very handy if you were going to attend a class for sewing, you could have everything in one spot. There is even a pocket to hold the patterns. So after looking at it, for me, its not exactly what I was looking for, but for some one just starting out, it would be perfect. It would be a great gift for the beginner seamstress.

Save your money, and do not buy this! My wife started up sewing, so I bought this for her thinking it had everything she needed to get started (less a sewing machine of course). I thought this was a perfect gift. Well I was wrong. She's making me return it. Where do I begin? The threads are of poor quality. It's weak & cheap. The needles and the pins are as if they are made of aluminum because they bend easy. The pin cushion is a joke. It's smaller than a golf ball. Useless! Thimbles are crushable. Scissors are feel like they won't last very long. The kit itself is cheaply made. First of all, the spools of thread keeps falling out of the holders every time it's opened or your about to close it. The kit is made of flimsy, cheap plastic. I doubt it would last a year of usage. The button to open the kit is impossible to open. My wife struggled and fought with it every time she needed to open it up. This is really a piece of junk! My wife is planning to buy a caboodle makeup holder or a fishing tackle box with the refund money.

Honest reviews on Singer Sew Essentials Storage System, 165 Pieces

Low quality thread, low quality tools, low quality case. On three days of light use one of the arms broke off. After a few weeks one of the large sides broke off.

The spools are always falling out no matter how well I stick them on. This didn't end up being worth the money. Maybe for a young starting newbie. I was getting back into sewing and had managed to misplace a lot of my tools in a move. Wanted to kick-start my new set and ended up buying all new tools on top of this.

My wife has this storage system and we hate it. The button/latch mechanism that holds the box shut is positioned poorly. 90% of the time when you pick it by the handle the button/latch to open the box fails and dumps your stuff on the ground below. If we got this out more than once a year it would be in the trash by now but the usage vs cost of a new one doesn't seem worth it. Avoid this product, unless you enjoy re-sorting your supplies on a regular basis.

It is as advertised. However, the plastic case it comes in cracked because it didn't come in the safest packaging. Luckily, none of the storage jars themselves cracked but I would be wary about buying from this store again. The containers do as advertised--I used them mainly to store my lotions and such and nothing has happened. I do not store them in direct sunlight though to prevent the products inside from going bad.

It is not acrylic the whole thing is polystyrene (PS) plastic.

Acrylics are known for their durability. The item sold under "acrylic" is made out of the most common type of plastic.I am absolutely shocked that somebody could misrepresent their product to this degree.

I just recently took up sewing and have gotten hooked! I love creating all sorts of new things, and have spent a lot of time searching out the best tools to help me do so. I purchased this pen and pencil set and was disappointed with the product. The marking pen seemed almost dried out when I got it and after just a few uses the line was almost too faint to see. I still use it occasionally but only for small projects because if the pen is uncovered for too long it stops working. I don't mind the pencil but I feel like if that was all I wanted I could have got just that for a lot cheaper. Overall I was pretty disappointed with the purchase. To make matters worse the next week I was at the local craft store and the same product was $2 cheaper and then on sale. Keep your money and find another Pen.

I really love this pen. I haven't used the pencil much, but the pen is great. It writes very easily and I just spray it with water and it disappears. My favorite pen for sewing so far!

pencil works well, marker seems to be just about dried out, so i went to the store and purchased another one and it seems to have the same problem just not as bad. not sure if all the markers are like that or if its just my luck

Honest reviews on Singer Fabric Marking Pen and Pencil Set

Really it couldn't be any better as it does just as described. Marker washes away with no problem. Would definitely purchase this again.

I own multiple marking tools and among the pens I use, this one is the worst. While the tip is fine, the color is a VERY light blue-I expected a blue as dark as the cap, but it is more a light turquoise, which really renders the pen useless, unless you mark very light fabric.

The pencil cannot make up what the pen is lacking either. The tip wears off quickly and sharpening it is a pain. Mine will not sharpen evenly, so I am always stuck with one side having the wood come all the way up to the lead. Makes it literally useless.

I have a twin marking pen in purple from Dritz and it is much much better than this product.

The markers show up great on the chalkboard. However, my chalkboard is painted with chalkboard paint. The markers stain the chalkboard unless it is wiped off with a wet towel right away.

I bought these to write on my glass spice & storage jars. Even after several days the marker will still come off on your fingers when its touched. I also tried Crayola window markers they came off also but were less than half the price of these. They may work for your purposes... just don't use them on anything that will be touched.

Grace Frame Start-Right Leader Cloth Quilt Pattern/ Grided Cloth Reviews

Grace Frame Start-Right Leader Cloth Quilt Pattern/ Grided Cloth Leaders / Majestic Leader Cloth / Frame Cotton Cloth - 112 Inches
Customer Ratings: 4 stars

Quality of fabic is very sturdy. I give it 5 stars. However, they are sewn completely crooked.

I measured from the top to bottom in several incriments down the length of the fabric.

The 9 inch one ranges from 8 3/4 inch to alittle over 9 inches.

The 19 inch one ranges from 19 to 19 1/2 from one side to the other but the sew line is a scant forth inch from bottom of the fabic. Making it little over 1/4 inch off.

The 26 inch one measures from 26 1/8 to 26 7/8ths

They were measured laying on a flat surface off the frame.

If I go by the sew line I will Never get them to roll correctly. I am using the velco fasten (the velcro on frame is completly Straight. I have tried multiple times to roll fabric straight but it keeps rolling crooked because of the length changes in the cloth. I do not feel I should have to make adjustments in the pinning and placement of the quilt top and bottom. I spent alot of money on these so I would have a straight pin line.

I have informed the Grace Co about the problem and will update my review when I hear back from them. They have a wonderful reputation so I really hope they make this right.

I love these cloth leaders. There are three of them for the take up rail, the rail for the top and the rail for the quilt bottom. They attach to the poles with Velcro that is included with the leader cloths. It is very easy to use and makes quilting on a frame easier to attach the quilt top and bottom. Using the leader cloths make is possible to quilt very close to the bottom and top edge. They come in king size but can be cut down for a queen or smaller. I use mine on the Gracie King but used them on the Gracie Queen before upgrading to a king extension.

Nice addition to my watercolor collection and hobby. They are fabulous colors, easy to use, practically fool prove need to watch few demos on YT.

One only thing, that caused one star there is no blue color, which is kind of upsetting...primary color is not included and you can't make it from mixing other colors. So I have to use regular watercolor.

Buy 4.5" (11.5cm) Knitter's Pride Cubics Interchangeable Long Tip

Knitter's Pride Cubics Interchangeable 4.5-inch Long Tip Knitting Needles; Size US 9
Customer Ratings: 4 stars

I got these when one of my needles in the set snapped near the metal/wood join. I was able to finish that project and half of a pair of mittens with these (so far).

The issue, of course, is that I DID have one of these break on me. The other needle hasn't broken nor has the replacement. So it is possible I was just unlucky. But do be aware that there has been some issues with breakage the wood narrows a LOT where it joins the metal and that clearly creates a potential weakness.

I have also had a little bit of an issue with one of the two needles I was using occasionally starting to unscrew. You feel it in the yarn before it comes fully undone, but it was still a bit frustrating. This happened even after tightening with their tool.

With all that, you might question my 4 star rating. But the fact is, the cubics really, really, really work great aside from those issues. They are light and warm to the touch with the perfect amount of stickiness and slide for me. The points are sharp enough without the harsh feel of metal in your fingertips (this is based on how I knit). The square shape gives you a little nicer grip with less force, something that folks with arthritis or carpal tunnel should appreciate.
