Hi and welcome to The Old Button Supplies, where I sell stunning vintage, preloved and new fabrics and haberdashery.
I also have another shop on Folksy - The Old Button Sews - selling beautiful gifts designed and sewn by me, together with some lovely sew it yourself craft kits.
Welsh quilts and blankets coming in a huge variety of colours and styles, varying from beautifully crafted heirloom pieces through to rough and ready utility pieces. Over the years I have found and bought many different examples, and use them in my home on our beds or to snuggle under on the sofa, repairing and darning as needed.
When they are just too damaged to use for their original purpose, I upcycle the fabric to make cushions or use in patchwork or applique projects. But I invariably end up with little snippets and scraps - far more than I can use........

Full description
Gorgeous bundle of rare or iconic Welsh wool blanket and quilt scraps, sourced from across Wales. A piece of history, each set includes fabric fragments of antique hand stitched quilts, and snippets from woven wool blankets from vintage to retro to modern. Plus a traditional red and black Welsh ladies shawl of course!
These little pieces would make lovely cards for St David's Day, but are perfect for all sorts of crafting, including applique, slow stitching and textile art. Or just mount in a frames and display.
Your bundle contains 14 different wool or quilt pieces - sizes will vary slightly in each bundle, but range from 4x3 inches to 1x1 inch (approx). I will also add a skein of vintage tapestry wool and an information sheet I've written giving some of the background to these fabrics.
