Creative Sewing Tools

Start with the gifts that every maker secretly loves, clever tools that look beautiful and work brilliantly!

The Vario Pliers and Creative Tool sets are the kind of multifunctional gadgets that make sewing feel effortless. Available in pink, turquoise, and fresh mint, they come neatly packaged in coordinating cases with clamps for easy organisation.


An adorable sticking filler

Woven sewing labels make any handmade piece extra special. The new Greek and Bauhaus designs bring a modern twist, while the Rosy Cheeks collection offers sweet, playful styles — perfect as affordable stocking fillers.

Try a label bundle!

Keep growing collections tidy with the Label Stash Folder and Inserts, and never lose track of placement again with the Label Gauge, a small tool every sewist will wonder how they lived without.

Plan, Track & Store in Style

For makers who love planning their projects, the Garment Planner and Sewing Maker’s Workbook are wonderful gifts. Pair them with a Fabric Stash Folder for a coordinated system that keeps every project perfectly documented.

Finish the setup with Pattern Storage Envelopes, a Spool Pod, and a Needlestore to bring a cheerful sense of order to any creative workspace.

Perfect 'essential' stocking fillers

Add a few Prym Love essentials, the Needle Twister, Chalk Wheel, Corner & Edge Shaper, and Cartridge Pencil, and you’ve got the perfect stocking filler bundle. Each tool adds a pop of colour to the sewing table and makes everyday tasks smoother.

And don’t forget the Lint Shaver, a budget-friendly favourite that brings old knits and handmade garments back to life. It’s one of those small gifts that makes a surprisingly big difference.

Pins & Clips for Every Project

To keep things secure, the Love Heart Magnetic Pin Cushion and Cat Pin Magnet bring personality to the sewing table. For thicker fabrics or quick basting, Fabric Clips, available in multiple sizes and charming heart boxes — are practical, colourful, and endlessly handy.

The Gift of a Project

Looking for a gift that’s more than just a tool or a treat? Our Sewing Society Bag Kits make the perfect present for sewists who love a hands-on project.

They’re a brilliant way to learn new techniques, enjoy a satisfying make over the festive break, or gift someone the joy of sewing something stylish and useful.

Each kit comes beautifully packaged too, ready to wrap or slip straight under the tree.

Needleminders & Threading Tools

Needleminders are an essential gift for any stitcher, no more lost needles or panicked searching mid-project!

And if threading needles ever feels fiddly, the LED Needle Threader and Needle Birdy Threader (in pink or mint) are total game-changers. Compact, cute, and practical, they’re ideal for anyone who values tools that make sewing smoother and less stressful.

Measuring & Marking

The Flex Hemmer, Seam Guide, Seam Circles, and Curved Ruler make measuring and adjustments a breeze. Pair them with the Prym Love Hand Gauge (available in mint and pink) or the Sew & Knit Gauge for easy, accurate marking every time.

Perfectly Pressed...

When it’s time to press, the Tailor’s Ham, Sleeve Roll, and Clapper create crisp, professional-looking seams. For finer details, the Clover Mini Iron and Hot Hemmer range, available in Imperial and Metric sizes, help shape and fold fabric with absolute precision.

Cutting tool & Scissors

The Prym Love Rotary Cutter glides effortlessly through fabric, while the Tailor’s Shears (available in 21 cm, 23 cm, and 25 cm) are classic and reliable. For intricate work, the Xact and Stork Embroidery Scissors are perfect, and the Rose Gold Appliqué Scissors add a touch of luxury to any workspace.
