As some of you already know, my DH is very creative. I just wanted to share with you some of the things he has made for me to help with my quilting, crafts and embroidery.
#1 - This was made with a 14" embroidery hoop. I padded the bottom so I could put pins and needles in it like a pin cushion. I also attach my small scissors with a ribbon so they are always there when I need them.
#2 - This was made with an 8" embroidery hoop. The long post fits between my legs to hold it secure and lets both of my hands free. It has two positions - one is on top and is straight the other one is slanted.
#3 - I do a lot of crafts that involve ribbon. So, this is the ribbon rack he make for me. I just love it.
He is a keeper
