NEW! Quick Stitch Kit from Erin Lincoln: Sewing Staples

For the last few years, Erin Lincoln has been known in the industry as an innovator and a trendsetter when it comes to her popular line of stitching dies.  She is now taking that talent to a whole new level with the development of specialized stitching kits!   Erin will be releasing kits periodiclaly throughout the year, alternating with the regular Make It Market Kit releases.  There is no set schedule, but when they are released it will be on the 1st of the month.  You will see an announcment and sneak peeks of a new kit coming on the 15th of the release prior, so today I get to announce her first kit!

Here are a few general details about the Quick Stitch Kits...

• They will be released periodically throughout the year, alternating with Betsy's Make It Market Kits.  If a kit is coming soon, the announcement will be made on the 15th and then the kit actually released on the following 1st of the month.
• These kits will contain both limited edition products and products that will be available for sale separately in the store two months after the kit is released.  However, the kit as a whole will be limited edition.
• If a kit sells out of it's original inventory within the first 24 hours, we will make additional kits available as pre-order items for a publicized length of time.  Customers should know that pre-ordered kits could potentially have small product substitutions of equal value.  Also, shipping times for the pre-ordered kits can vary greatly depending on the number of pre-orders received and how much inventory vendors have on hand. It can range anywhere from 4-10 weeks.  You will be notified via email when your pre-ordered kit has shipped.
• These kits will debut new stitching dies along with accessories and other products to help you create unique stitched projects and gifts.
• The prices will vary depending on the kit, $75-$120.  They are shipped separately in their own box, free U.S. shipping is included.  (You may contact Customer Service about any specific kit and the applicable international shipping charges that may apply)
• Promotional team members will showcase sneak peeks of the kit on the 15th of the month prior to a kit being released.  They will post their full projects on the last day of the month, with the projects highlighted in the newsletter on the 1st of the month.
• During the months that a kit is being released, they will be available for sale at 10pm EST on the night of the 1st.

The first Quick Stitch Kit will be released on March 1st and it is entitled "Sewing Staples".  Erin has really outdone herself with this one! The stitching dies included help you to make a few different sewing accessories that are not only beautiful, but also super functional.  You will have all of your sewing supplies in order just in time for the new stitching products coming out over the next year!  Not only will this kit help YOU to get organized, but also make wonderful handmade gifts for friends and family.  The team even has a few unconventional uses for these stitching dies that will allow you to take everything in a completely different direction and get more value for your investment in these tools!

Erin says, "I've told people in the past to "hold on to your hats" when it comes to product releases. This year? I'm holding on to mine!

I never in a million years thought I'd be stepping down from the design team. Now that I have, you know it had to be something really BIG to lure me away. With more time to let my product design ideas run rampant and the extra space that a "kit" gives me to play, you'll be in for a treat this next year if you are a fan of my stitching dies. And if you haven't tried them yet, now might be the time. They are fun, crafty, and so very easy to use.

 

First up, something just for you with an assortment of sewing staples to keep you organized for all that is coming ahead. Here's to lots of fun and creativity over the next twelve months. See you on March 1st!"

Hilary says, "These"Quick Stitch" kits are simply amazing!  I have always loved hand stitching felts with floss, but used to worry about perfect stitches, and now that these dies punch the sewing holes for you, it's literally a dream come true.  Not only can you stitch and layer the smallest of felt flowers together, but your result is stunning and professional.  Create beautifully handmade felted gifts truly from the heart, though I think I'll keep this sweet little set for myself."

Rebecca says, "Oh my goodness, my notions-loving-heart fell head over heels for the Sewing Staples kit!  The dies make me want to create pouches and pockets and packaging for all of the sewing treasures I've collected from my dear grandmother's collection over the past few years.  In fact, I could consider making pouches for just about everything, sewing-related or not!"
