Lori Holt of Bee in My Bonnet created the cutest and most convenient way to store needles! Drop those bandages, your finger-pricking days are gone. Now, you’ll be taking your needles for quilting, sewing, and cross stitch on-the-go safely in your handmade, DIY Needle Book. Lori has an easy video tutorial for you and we have all the supplies!

Lori used the Lori Holt Sew Simple Shapes to make these cute embellishments. This star applique holds all the needles in one place securely. You might say this detail is really the star of the project!

We just love the details. This applique in particular stole our hearts! Lori used her Sew Simple Shapes C8 from Fruit Salad to cut the perfect heart!
