"Baby wearing" has long been practiced in many cultures around the world, and research has shown that "worn" babies are happier and learn more quickly than their counterparts. The Mei Tai is a traditional Asian baby carrier that allows you to carry your baby in the front, on the back, or on the hip. Its wide straps and even distribution of weight across the back make it very comfortable. |

A variation of the classic Amish Puzzle Ball pattern, this cuddly patchwork ball has lots of places for little hands to grab on to. It tumbles softly but won't roll away from baby!

|||||||
The perfect tool for hiding or removing stray threads. Easily slips through the top fabric, leaving no marks or punctures. Ideal for long-arm quilters and machine embroidery. |
|||||||
A set of two sizes of semi-hoops that control the fabric during free-motion quilting on a standard home sewing machine. Easy to use and extremely light weight. Relaxed hand positioning prevents hand, wrist and shoulder fatigue normally experienced when attempting to control the fabric. |
