About this item
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. Stuffed full of little pieces of vintage or salvaged fabrics and embellishments that can be snipped and sewn onto a denim foundation piece, these kits are a great introduction to slow sewing and textile art, and I think they make great gifts for teenagers. 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. Your box will include needles and pins, and my introduction to slow stitching leaflet and stitching guide (you can swap this for an emailed copy plus extra textiles - see options). Textiles include: - 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 Indonesian batik dyed linen-cotton and sari silk ribbons - a scrap of antique Welsh quilt - 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 sewing thread (colours vary)

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

I absolutely love my vintage bookmark, the fabrics are gorgeous and my Christmas felt decoration is perfect for my fresh tree in December. Stitching is spot on. Thank you, Sharon. Prompt delivery, packaged beautifully in white tissue paper.
I was very pleased with my purchase. It was very well presented and came up to my expectations. Created to inspire! Lovely colour co-ordinations and quality materials,
Three gorgeous tags with vintage silk and lace. These are my favourite fabrics along with velvet. The fabrics on the tags are delightful. And the small buttons are so cute. Stitching is perfect. Absolutely love them. Thank you, Sharon.
