Sewing Craft Kits: gift ideas for sewists

While there are a million and one things you can buy someone who sews, it’s hard to know what they want. Sending them to the craft store with a list can be intimidating to the non-sewer. Sewing craft kits make a great gift idea for sewists. A little package with the fabric and pattern for a project takes out all the stress and is a gift they’re sure to love.

Now, craft kits may bring to mind two pieces of cut out felt, some yarn and a plastic needle, but there are sewing kits designed for adults too. With Mother’s Day is right around the corner, here are some adorable sewing craft kits:
