Are your firends quilters/sewers? A thread catcher would be nice. I don't know where the pattern is anymore, but they are quick and easy and you could Google the pattern. Have fun at the retreat.

The Pincushions are nice....and cute ones out there. The sewing bag to catch threads/etc. is great....How about Quilted Kitchen Pot Holders? Or, a fun magnet; Lapel pins; Stork Embroidery Scissors....lots of choices. Good Luck....

Happy Quilting.....Kathy
