I had planned to make myself a needle book to keep these in.
A few years ago I enjoyed putting one together which I made out of a lovely piece of ribbon I had in my collection.
I cut a matching felt piece to sew on the backside of the ribbon (folding the ends of the ribbon in first), and then blind-stitched it to the back of the ribbon, being careful not to stitch through to the front.
I stitched them together with embroidery floss, and stitched these pages to the center of the ribbon section.
I also stitched a small pocket on the back cover, to keep a needle threader handy.
Now I can keep all of my different needles & special pins that I use for a variety of sewing & embroidery jobs, together in this 'sew pretty' book.
Happy Stitching!
