This is my design for the Designing Ladies 2007 Needle Casket.  I call it Sampler Garden.  It includes a needle casket  (with rabbits, birds and even a worm for the early bird), needle cushion (with snail), needle roll (with cat and snail) and a needle custodian which holds a little packet of emery. 

 

What better way to hold your needles while working, store your needles while you sleep, and clean your needles when you wake.  Tuck everything away in the needle casket when you are not showing off your work to friends.
