Title: Fun Craft
Review: I bought this as an adult who has been wanting to get into more hobbies. The kit comes with everything you need and is an excellent value for the cost. It will keep me entertained for many hours to come. The instructions were generally easy to understand, and the lil sweets come out so cute and tiny! Itâs fun to see my sewing skills improving with each one I make.

Title: Excellent; needs another edition!
Review: Absolutely wonderful!! The instructions are easy to follow and the materials are great.Pros:- Super cute!- Easy to make; just cutting and sewing. The book tells you how to do the stitches needed for the projects, and if you’re anything like me you’ll get the hang of it quickly.- Clear instructions; even when I was a bit delirious from the heat I was able to sew a little piece of toast properly.- Gives you something fun to do when you’re bored.- Quality materials; no cheapness here.Issues:- I wish there were more sheets of several colours of felt; trying to make a green apple proved not possible because of just how much felt is needed for other projects.- I think there should be an extra sheet of eyes and cheek blushes; with how many extras I made of some items there just wasn’t enough cute lil blushes to go around!- The needles need to be significantly sharper. Even my sharp needles had a little bit of trouble going through the felt occasionally, and when that happened I knew that the needles that were given to me in this package wouldn’t have a chance of piercing the felt. If you buy this, I recommend that you have your own needles handy.- There should be reminders on pages with patterns that need to be flipped to flip them. I’ve, more than once, accidentally traced a pattern twice the same way that needed to be flipped, because I was just so focused and eager to sew. Not a huge issue, but it’d be very helpful.Aside from all that, if I were able to say anything to Klutz, it’d be “make another edition of this!” I absolutely love making tiny little foods and the instructions in this were so clear, and I also love their method of making the patterns as a cardboard piece instead of just paper like I’ve seen many other patterns. It ensures that the patterns last and I’m sure that even after I create everything in this kit I’ll still be making more little foods using these patterns (I’m even planning to buy more felt specifically to make more!). I did buy this for myself, so I’m not entirely sure how a child would fare with this, but I’d probably recommend them to be at least eight years old or so, and to definitely have some supervision.All in all a worthwhile purchase. Absolutely adorable and gives me something to do when I’m really bored. Extremely eager to see a new edition of tiny food come out from this company! I’d buy it in a heartbeat. (maybe with a cute little hamburger and fries or a sandwich?)

Title: Great buy and so fun but not for beginners as advertised
Review: Iâve been sewing for a very, very long time. My oldest daughter (almost 12) became extremely interested in learning how so I taught her some things previously and sheâs taking home-ec in school. I purchased this as something to further her education and for something fun for us to do together. Especially since my 10 month old daughter takes up a lot of my attention. I wanted something special for just her and I to do during my little ones naps. It comes with absolutely everything you need and is so fantastic! The instruction book (which we only needed for photos to line up the felt pieces) is very informative with great photos.I already know how to sew everything together so I explained it to her myself and she did so wonderfully!! Our first two projects turned out great!! And we had such a blast. Theyâre adorable! Definitely a fabulous deal.However if youâre not already skilled or at least somewhat in sewing than it may be harder than they describe on the box. Not a complete beginner kit in my opinion.It does take some previous knowledge to complete the projects more easily. They are quite small as well so sewing something so small will be harder regardless. Especially since the instructions can make steps sound confusing when theyâre actually not. So some previous skill is probably required.All in all a great deal though!My oldest daughter did the âtoaster pastryâ and I did the dippy egg. I showed a penny beside mine for size reference. We had so much fun and canât wait to make the next couple!

Title: Cute starter kit for kids
Review: My 7 year old daughter wanted her own âmini sewing kitâ in spite of the fact that (or maybe because) I have a whole sewing room full of fabric, felt, embroidery floss, and huge quantities of stuffing – and Iâd be thrilled to let her use some of it. Iâm an advanced crafter/Sewist and I have made costumes, quilts, and some years ago little toys such as these without patterns. But my kid is very independent and likes working things out on her own, she doesnât want to do these things with me telling her what to do. So I liked that this came with a well-written and well illustrated how-to book that really walked her through the steps and explained the basics. It also provides lots of inspiration as the projects are very cute. She was able to read the instructions and has learned to thread her own needle and do (and undo) a few basic stitches. She made the first project with some help and is inspired to make more, so I am optimistic that I will now have a little craft buddy. Embroidery is still hard, it takes a lot of practice to get even stitches, but I think these patterns could be fun up through the teens and they teach the basics of 3D fabric constructions. The little foods are very giftable as ornaments for family and friends. The materials are of good quality and this is a good self-contained starter kit. I did not find the needles to be dull as another reviewer stated. Overall Iâm impressed with this kit.

Title: Super cute!
Review: My daughter loved this so much we have purchased several times to give as gifts! You can make the individual crafts as gifts or keep them all and add string and use as ornaments to decorate a small tree for Christmas or make a garland for kids room. Easy to get the hang of.
