@sherylsiu If you are looking for a magnifying lamp or a magnifier for projects, I would check with the fabric stores. Joann dot com has some in store and online.

@CAcableGirl2 I think she may be looking for a kit from which to make an eyeglass case.

@sherylsiu There are several needlepoint eyeglass case kits on Amazon if that is what you are looking for.

@sherylsiu @Kachina624 Oh, that makes more sense! I would try ETSY, since there are some completed and some in kit form available. Also, needlepoint dot com may have some (but those look expensive to me).

Or stitch and zip kits dot com.

@sherylsiu try Stitchery dot com. They usually have them.

I think what you are looking for are called "Stitch and Zip" kits - they are preassembled and fun to make - I must have made at least 25 - I love "stitch and zip" kits, I complete them and give the finished products as gifts.

Not sure if I can post a website here - search for "Stitch and Zip kits" and find the official (company) website which will show what designs are available.

Also, keep an eye out on Ebay - often you can pick up the kits for around $12.00.

Hope this helps!

Sorry. I was trying to post a picture from my iPhone of my glasses case from Stitch & Zip.
I have had very good luck with these kits.
I bought mine if Amazon.
