Hi and welcome to The Old Button Sews, where I sell beautiful gifts designed and sewn by me. Special commissions are welcome - just click the "contact" button above.
I also sell craft kits and fabric supplies - and am moving them across to my new shop The Old Button Supplies - search for me on Folksy.
I love the traditional old-gold colour stitching on the seam of blue jeans, and just had to do a themed bundle that picks it out

Full description
Blue denim with old gold - this rich collection of fabrics and trims is ideal for slow stitching projects, textile art or just to use in other sewing projects. A perfect gift for a teenager or just treat yourself.
Cut from a pre-loved pair of jeans, the denim base piece is a really firm foundation on which to stitch some of these beautiful vintage and salvaged remnants. There are over 30 pieces so you will have lots left over for another project.
There are no "instructions" for slow stitching as it's about your creativity, but my introduction to slow stitching and stitch guide has easy ideas and online links to get you started.
Available in 2 sizes - both have the same pieces, the larger box has a second foundation piece in a different colour denim, and even more trims and embellishments.
What's in the box:
- introduction to slow stitching and stitch guide
- blue denim foundation fabric
- scraps of fabrics from preloved clothes, including floral cotton prints, check flannel shirt and baby cord
- offcuts from craft projects including jndonesian batik dyed linen-cotton and sari silk ribbons
- snippets of vintage cotton crochet motif and laces
- salvaged upholstery braids, ribbon and ric-rac
- hand dyed linen yarn and fluffy knitting wools
- old buttons (will vary)
- embroidery threads in different colours
- reel or bobbin of of sewing thread
- sewing needle and pins, secured in a scrap of antique Welsh quilt
Designed by Sharon Lloyd in my attic sewing room in Bridgend, South Wales
