What to say? Because I’m a bit flabbergasted. Well, every little book is marvelous, each cover is fabulous, the insides are ingenious. I’ve never seen so many books in one video. I was bombarded with lovely ideas for covers, closures and puffy, lacy pages. I’m boggled by the clever use of vintage ephemera and stamps. I’m going to watch this video again! Thanks!
What a precious selection of books. There are some well-loved sewing enthusiasts in our history that will hopefully inspire future generations. Thank you for sharing this. The music is the icing on the cake for the filming presentation.
I don't know why, but I'm sitting here watching this and tears are streaming down my face. I have to go to work and I just wanna stay home and sew......these are so beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing these beautiful treasures. I'm going to try making one for a young, single mom I know. She has a beautiful 8 yr old boy and I bet she'd love a neeedlebook made by me. Wish me luck! You are amazing!
You MADE all these? Beautiful! These are works of love that strongly refer to a time when life was not lived on the fast lane. I think that is what drew me to stitching. It is a mindful craft, not to be hurried. Thank you for sharing!! 💞
What can I say - I am literally in tears watching this! These lovely books bring up such poignant memories and are flooding me with ideas for how to capture my special places, people, notions and fabrics into a meaningful collection. Thank you so much for sharing this.
I'm absolutely speechless at the beauty, grace, taste and design of these lovely needlebooks! Such clever ideas as well -- Thank you so very much for sharing!😍
I hope to hold classes this year, but online tutorial....I'm not so sure. It's possible but I won't commit. So many irons in the fire. Thanks for asking. Follow me on instagram for future class info. @catheholden
I’ve been combing YT for needle books….never quite feeling I found what I’m looking for, but unable to name what I was seeking…and then this! Thank you! These are fabulous! ❤️
This is the most beautiful video I’ve ever seen !!! All of these needle books are amazingly beautiful & all would be a treasure to own ! Your work is flawless & just so, so amazing ! Thank you for sharing !!!!!! 🪡🧵🪡🧵🪡🧵🪡🧵🪡🧵🪡🧵🪡🧵🪡🧵🪡🧵🪡
Love how you have used buttons to anchor the scissors - and the hundreds of other beautiful ideas you have shared through this video. Thanks so much Cathe! Cheers, Christine
Absolutely gorgeous! I love each and every one and the clever bits inside! I’m going to keep my eyes open at flea markets and antique stores for little bits of treasures! Thank you for sharing your lovely collection!
Absolutely beautiful Cathe! You are a true artist. I especially like the way you made pockets out of the vintage satin award ribbons - so clever! I love functional art.
Those are all so adorable and brings back memories of by gone days when women used to sew things by hand. They all are so cleverly made and crafted. Thank you for sharing!
Your sew and tell made me cry…it embodies all my sewing ancestors who have past on, back to my great grandmother. I am currently gathering supplies to make my daughter a needle book. She is a purple girl. I will include my inspiration from your needle book/sewing kit. 💜
My Granddaughter has expressed an interest in learning how to sew. I have been looking at needle books so that I can make her one for Christmas. She can raid my fabric stash. I saw your video and I was seriously in awe. They are so very beautiful, ingenious and I loved every one of them. Thank you so much for showing them to us. That is a mountain of work and so well done. ❤️
Wow. Each one is so unique and beautiful. I especially love the use of old clothing labels, the blue ribbon from a swim meet (used as a pocket in book 5), the use of stamps from old letters, the abandoned center of a crocheted granny square in book 6, the old playing cards and post cards, & even a boy scout troop number badge. This is truly up-cycling at its finest. Thank you so much for sharing these.
Aww!! These Are So Beautiful ❤️ I Love Each And Everyone Of Them.. Sweet 🎵 🎶 Music... It's So Fascinating To See Each Of Them And How Each One Is Different... 😁💜❤️🧷🧵🪡☺️💜 Thank You Ma'am For Showing These... ❤️💜
YOU’RE LITTLE NEEDLE BOOKS are FABULOUS…WORKS OF AMAZING ART..SO BEAUTIFUL..I MAKE THREADED NEEDLE BOOKS…IF I WERE to make a Gift Needle Book I think I’d add..a needle threader a tiny pair of scissors a card of buttons etc…like Yours ,,,Yours are so very BEAUTIFUL❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Just. WOW! I will watch this over and over. So many sweet details to take in. I can’t figure out how you attached the pages. They are each very special.
Your work is absolutely beautiful. I could sit and watch your video over and over. I have made a needlebook for my daughter for Xmas, using old doilies hand embroidered by her grandmother. Your work is so inspiring. Thankyou for sharing. You have given me so many more ideas. I made a lace pocket in the back of mine and filled 5 bobbins of different colours. Your postcard with cotton would have sufficed, however, you live and learn.
Oh my goodness....those are the most darling little sewing books I've ever seen. It would be a privilege to have any of these little cuties. I love how each one has different ideas with different ephemera. Just cant put into words how much I love them... Do you have a video on how you made them?
My goodness you and your sister are talented beyond words. I can’t decide which is my favourite! Maybe it’s time to stop hoarding your fabric I’ve purchased and make a needy book at least in honour of this video. Just astounding ❤
Every detail is wonderful - the fabrics, the labels, the buttons to hold scissors, the ribbons, the little thread cards! They're all beautiful, but #10 makes my heart sing! So lovely! Wishing you a Happy New Year filled with good health and lots of creating!
Amazing, as usual. I have been putting off making me one of these for so long. You have just gave me the kick in the pants that I needed. You have gave me so many beautiful ideas. I love the button to hold the scissors. Wishing you and your family a very Merry Christmas, and a Healthy and Happy New Year....... you Beautiful Soul !!! Deb. aka Abby Normal

I'm absolutely speechless at the beauty, grace, taste and design of these lovely needlebooks! Such clever ideas as well -- Thank you so very much for sharing!😍
I love your work and wondered if you would consider making a tutorial of how you construct them.
I hope to hold classes this year, but online tutorial....I'm not so sure. It's possible but I won't commit. So many irons in the fire. Thanks for asking. Follow me on instagram for future class info. @catheholden

Beautiful. Your stitching is very neat.
I love each and every one of these. Your ideas for holding the scissors are wonderful!
Lovely. Very clever use of a button to keep the scissors from falling out.
Beautiful collection of needle books, loved how you secured the scissors with the button. Such great ideas.
Wow. Each one is so unique and beautiful. I especially love the use of old clothing labels, the blue ribbon from a swim meet (used as a pocket in book 5), the use of stamps from old letters, the abandoned center of a crocheted granny square in book 6, the old playing cards and post cards, & even a boy scout troop number badge.
