Fabric Eraser
The fabric eraser is useful for surface embroidery when you use a pencil to draw your design lines onto fabric.
If you by mistake draw the line in the incorrect position, use the fabric eraser to remove the pencil line.
The pencil line may not completely erase so still take care when drawing design lines on your fabric.
I find the eraser useful especially when drawing on the direction guide lines on my needle painting designs and sometimes draw the guide lines on at the wrong angle and need to remove them.

Gift Certificates
Gift Certificates make a great gift for the stitching enthusiast and are convenient as I can email the gift certificate on the day of purchase so the recipient receives the certificate quickly and at no mailing cost. I personalize your gift certificate by putting the name of the recipient and who it is from on the certificate. Please write who the certificate is for and who it is from, in the order notes at the bottom of the check out page.
The certificate will be emailed as a PDF file to the purchaser who can personally give the certificate to the recipient (the certificate prints of nicely using a inkjet or laser printer) or emailed to the recipient.
