She gave me a little bin of plain stitch markers, then some more markers shaped like butterflies, Christmas trees, and a set of peppermints with 1 gingerbread man. She also gave me 2 sets of needle stoppers, or whatever you call the things to stick on the end of a needle to stop stitches from falling off. One set are shaped like pineapples, and the other are shaped like teacups, really cute. And then she added a notions box—a small box with several compartments to neatly hold all my stitch markers. Fun stuff, and very useful!<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Tracy<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
