10 No-Sew Gifts for Sewing Friends

Looking for that perfect gift to give a sewing buddy, guild friend or quilting group? Look no more! We’ve got loads of great no-sew gifts that not only make great presents for others, but you’ll also want them on your wish list!

SEWING MACHINE NECKLACE

Nothing says “I Love to Sew” better than a statement necklace! This classic coin pendant necklace features a laser cut sewing machine with a CZ accent. Coin is approximately 1″ width. Necklace length is 20″ plus a 2″ extender chain so the total length can go up to 22″.

SCISSOR EARRINGS

These rose gold plated drop earrings feature a pair of scissors with a simple rhinestone. Gift a pair to a sewing friend for Christmas or Hanukkah and make sure to grab a matching pair for yourself.

ENAMEL PIN

This enamel pin is a replica of a popular quilt pattern by Kelli Fannin Quilt Designs, Stitch Happens. It’s a generously sized 2″ pin with two clasps on the back for stability. Sure to make a wonderful gift or keepsake for your quilty friends and guild mates, or just a fun addition to your collection!

WOOL PRESSING MAT

This 100% New Zealand Wool Ironing Mat retains heat, so when you iron your fabric it’s like ironing from both sides at the same time! This thick wool pad will keep your fabric stable while ironing to minimize stretching. Projects including yarn and embroidery can be pinned into the wool for easy blocking. The 1/2″ density provides extra protection for any ironing surface.

GOOD SCISSORS

Often overlooked as no-sew gifts, a good pair of scissors, snips or shears will make any sewist or quilter’s dreams come true! It’s even better if the scissors come with a nice case for gifting.

GOOD THREAD

Nice thread is a great gift, especially if a sewing buddy is always using older spools from her stash. Better yet, gift a thread pack that also comes with a project or pattern! Camping phrases are super cute, done in cross-stitch with Sulky 12 wt. Cotton Petites™!
