Those of you that are still looking for a small gift to make for a friend or family member, we have
Primke Scissor Fob Kits on special during November, these Fobs look lovely on your scissors or keys.
Some of our customers have also turned them into Christmas decorations.

October Specials
For those people still working on a wool embroidery project this month we have Mogear mohair threads on special. Also check out the
Needle Necessities over dyed stranded cottons that we still have in stock. These beautiful hand dyed threads have been re branded to
Threadworx, the names and numbers have been changed but the colours are supposed to be the same. That said we have found that they vary
slightly from the original, so here is your chance to get some of the original, at a reduced price.
Finally we have decided to reduce our stock of Maria George Delica beads this month. We thought that it would be an ideal time for those
of you working on your Christmas project, or just to add a little bling to whatever you are working on. Remember Christmas is fast approaching,
there are only 2 and a half months to go.
Well on that cheerful note I will call it quits for today.

Our Royal Show starts next week, there is always a lot to see, just have to hope that the weather will be good.
Well this shall be all for today, the weeds in the garden are waiting for me.

We are Updating our Web Site
Hi to everyone, we seem to be getting some much needed rain in the Adelaide metropolitan area and it finally feels like winter has arrived.
As I have given up dressmaking, I have a book that is no longer required. The title is
The Cutter's Guide
A Manual of Dress-cutting and Ladies Tailoring
By M. E. ROBERTS
Printed in 1929
If anyone is interested I'm asking $20.00 for it, plus postage. It can also be viewed on Gumtree, search for "Book The Cutter's Guide".

We are updating our WEB site so it will be easier to find things, we have started with Gumnut Yarns Colour Card and also the DMC Colour Card.
We eventuraly plan to do all of the Colour Cards so have a look and tell us what you think.
That's all for today, happy stitching from all of us at Christina's Craft and Gifts
