I bought this as a Christmas gift for my 9-year-old niece and it was a hit. She had fun making pin art and showing off her skills.

FUN & EASY TO USE-HAVE A 9 YEAR OLD GIRL THAT LOVES CRAFTS & ANYTHING TO DO WITH AMERICAN GIRL
- NOEL LYNN WEBB
We ordered this item for my twin girls' birthday along with a few other American Girls craft items. Although the package is suprisingly small, the buttons actually come out bigger than I expected. The quality of the felt items is very good... no rips! The colors are awesome and there were enough pieces in the package that everyone was happy with what they got. My twins are 6 and they had a bit of a challenge working with the sewing, but my 8 year-old did pretty good. The only other challenge was that it only comes with one needle so there was alot of waiting for the other person to finish (not that easy when you're 6). I tried other needles around the house, but they either didn't have a big enough eye for the thread or they weren't sharp enough to go through the thicker felt pieces. Overall this was a fun craft and the buttons are very very cute.

This is a good quality, fun craft but needs more parent help than I anticipated. It is not one that you can set your child down with and walk away unless the child has some sewing knowledge. Still fun though.

This kit has everything you need to make 12 pins including cute embroidered pieces as the pin centers. The instruction manual is very clear and teaches the individual several hand sewing stitches including the french knot. This would be great activity for a party of older girls or fun for someone who enjoys crafting and basic hand stitching so she can give as gifts. If for some reason you or the child does not understand how to make a stitch from the directions, there are some wonderful videos online.

Nice designs. My 10 years old loved to do it with her friends. The only down side is that the pins does not stick very well.
