I can't believe the holidays are here already but . . .ready or not! Here they are!

If you're looking for the perfect stocking stuffer for the machine embroiderer in your life (who might just be yourself) here are 12 ideas to get the creative gift-giving juices flowing. ๐ŸŽ…

#1: Duckbill Scissors

Kimberbell Duckbill Scissors feature extra-sharp blades and large, double-loop rings for a comfortable fit. The duckbill blade gently lifts fabric, protecting the fabric while trimming around tack-down stitches!

#2: USB 3-Pack

Kimberbellโ€™s USB 3-Pack includes one white, one orange, and one mint USB drive. Download digital embroidery files to the blank USB, then use it to transfer the files to your embroidery machine!

Kimberbellโ€™s Enchanted Winter Needle Minder coordinates perfectly with the Enchanted Winter quilt. Featuring a darling penguin, this enamel needle minder has a super-strong magnetic pull!

#4: Double-Curved Applique Scissors

Double-Curved Applique Scissors are ideal for trimming in small spaces. With their curved design for cutting in-the-hoop, these scissors are a machine embroiderer's go-to! (They also come in a left-handed option.)

#5: Sharp Snips

Sharp Snips feature microserrated edges and curved, elongated blades for precise trimming. Lightweight and ergonomic, they're sharp to the tip and easily clip through thread and small pieces of fabric!

#6: Paper Tape

Paper Tape is a must-have for machine embroidery projects, providing a secure hold during stitching and applique and preventing fabric and embellishments from catching under the presser foot.

#7: Navy Floral Paper Tape Dispenser

Our new Navy Floral Paper Tape Dispenser is designed especially for Kimberbell Paper Tape! This weighted, collectible dispenser features a sharp serrated edge and a darling design.
