New kit, with 20% off with the code 20KIT, and with free UK postage too, for a limited introductory period, making it just £35.20 including UK postage. This is a bumper kit with lots of gorgeous fabrics and vintage fabrics.
Calling all fans of vintage French fashion! This kit includes a printed photo from a French fashion magazine dating from 1911.
This is number three in a series of three vintage embroidery and appliqué kits, there are two very similar kits with photos from the same year, and they are all very elegant.
The kit includes a large pure linen panel in a soft beige colour, which provides the perfect backdrop to appliqué the patterned fabric swatches onto. Lace, buttons and trims are also provided in the pack. The whole pack would make a very glamorous cushion front, which would be perfect for a lounge or bedroom chair, especially if teamed with a vintage throw. Or, it could be set within a quilt to make a gorgeous throw.
The fabric layout that you can see is just a suggestion, there are many fabric swatches, and it would be possible to lay them out in a way that there would be sufficient for another project.
