When I ran a set of workshops on traditional textile crafts they were so popular it surprised me! It was fun share the technique of this simple craft, so I have put together some small packs of my treasured vintage Laura Ashley fabric with my lesson booklet for a really special introduction to this craft. Although I treasure them it seems a shame to keep them hidden in storage. (I doubt I will be making any more patchwork quilts from them!)
This is a custom-made item and cannot be returned unless faulty.

Full description
Everything you need to get started in my beginner kit for “English Paper Piecing” traditional patchwork; a little craft treat! This "African Gold" kit is in warm retro colours as shown in the first two images.
Included are 30 hexagonal pieces of hand“fussy cut” vintage 1976 Laura Ashley fabric (4 sets of 6 and 6 different single ones. This is enough for a rectangle (approx 20x30 cm-maybe a cushion front) or a hoop art piece or for any project, as you wish. It will also make into 2 larger or 4 smaller pincushions or flower appliques with photo instructions for these included.
The kit comes in a strong reusable box for project storage (or for gift giving)and includes includes my workshop lesson booklet with full photo instructions for the technique and both pincushions, including some background information about this lovely pastime. The pincushions are a traditional hexagon flower shape and /or a mini hexi shape.
Also included are 30 die cut card templates (with punched holes for easy pinning and easier removing once finished) and a window template. Plus white tacking cotton, coloured sewing thread, a needle and pins in a replica vintage packet and filling.
I have a limited amount of this fabric-but blues/greens, greys and mauves are also available-just ask.
I hope you enjoy this pastime as much as I do and I am happy to help with any queries you may have.
