Betsy Ross Sewing Kit ePattern

A patriotic-themed sewing basket includes three designs. What could be more inspiring than a sewing kit that honors Betsy Ross, the cherished seamstress often credited with sewing the first American flag? A tiny doll anchors a ribbon chatelaine for keeping your sewing scissors handy. Star-print fabric makes a sweet heart-shaped pincushion. And fabrics in red, white, and blue prints provide a spirited lining for a basket to hold all your sewing tools and thread. For an antique look, sponge the designs with tea. The approximate sizes for each design are as follows: Betsy Ross Chatelaine 4.25"h x 2.25"w; Pincushion 2.5"w x 2.5"h; Lined Sewing Basket 9"w x 4"h. The original publication was Celebrations to Cross Stitch and Craft magazine, Winter/Spring 1990 issue.
