It's a very good price and the reviews seem pretty favourable too, Vicki. Can you go through Quidco too?
Talking of cute (over practicality maybe though ) look at these dinky babies.

great price too, just would be bothered that if I got the sewing bug again (not very likely), they wouldn't be up to what I needed. Reassuring to buy this kind of stuff from JL, although I don't think Argos are renowned for asking too many questions if you return an item are they!!0 -
Ooohh Bronnie that is adorable. Wonder if I'd be allowed one of those in hospital lol,
would keep me amused no end!0 -

Great idea, it certainly would be an entertaining, distracting and creative way to pass the time Daisy. Just up your street I reckon!!0 -
I think I might actually ask when I go for my ward visit on the 7th May, as I'll have some birthday money, so could treat myself
I have loads of little remnants of fabric that I bought when Mum and I got the material for my skirt (that I must nag her to make)
I'm kind of a hopeless sewer, but I can improve0 -
If only I wasn't scared of sewing machines0

Alex, I have a pretty awful track record with them from textiles at school...
we had to pay the school for a new one
But, I'm more grown up and patient now and have more interest in craft stuff!0 -

Step back Alex, this one bites your fingers!!!
Gotta go and show my face back in work, have been hiding away for ages as it's been so quiet. Catch up later0 -
In that instance, dropped it.
My main problem was snapping needles0 -
I very (and I mean very) nearly sewed my teacher's finger once
I'm good with a proper needle, I just can't cope very well with machinery.
Should have seen me the only and only time I drove a tractor at work :rotfl:0 -
I did sew my finger to the hoodie I was making at one point too0
