Sweetwoods Needlecase, Single Cherry

A well-known hardwood of beloved tradition, American cherry of earthy brown is paired with pale maple. Curious ripple-grained maple (photos do not do this justice!) is selected to marry to warm cherry … this bit of fussiness occasionally puts this variation out of stock until suitable wood is found for a new run of Cherry/Maple needlecases. Although the images have more than one needlecase to show the variability of the finished pieces, the price is for one only. Let us choose one for you!

A sweet combination of pieced woods for a luxury needle keep ... each is assembled from two to three woods with a thin line of deep black veneer to mark the division plus a hand-rubbed finish of sealer and paste wax for a silky touch. The single needlecase will keep track of sharp quilting or beading needles or even the blunt tapestry needles for canvas needleworkers. Without question, it is a sweet treat for the devoted needleartist. Splendid gift for a secret pal or as a stocking stuffer! Use several needlecases in different woods for various sizes or types of needles.

The average dimension of a single needlecase is 5/8 x 1 x 2-7/8 inches; since each piece is individually fashioned, dimensions will vary slightly. Depth of storage is about 2-1/2 inches with comfortable room for up to 2-inch length needles to give allowance for the cork stopper. By the way, did you know that cork is a type of oak and is one of the most renewable of commercial woods?
