Summer Kitchen Embroidery BOM by Crabapple Hill
We have something really special for all our embroidery lovers! It's a step back in time to a vintage kitchen! We've packaged the kits in colors and fabrics similar to those shown on the pattern cover.
 
The monthly kit includes the patterns and fabrics. If you want an optional Cosmo floss kit in the colors listed in the pattern, please let us know as it is not included in the kits. (We know many of you already have a lot of floss colors so we're making the floss kit optional). Our sample will be shaded with colored pencils (colored by Carol) and hand embroidered (by Barb). It's up to you if you want plain embroidery, without shading the designs, or to use colored pencils or crayons. (Pencils and/or crayons are not included in the pricing.) Limited to 7 participants.
Finished size: 56" x 56"
Starting in early 2021(Jan or Feb)
11 Months
$25.99/month

New notions!
Clapper!
Handcrafted right here in Northern CA, use this clapper in conjunction with your wool pressing mat for really flat seams! Perfectly sized, with a groove for your fingers, the wood has been sanded smooth. Shop here for the clapper.
Binding Eaze - it's like an extra hand at the ironing board!
Thread your binding through the loops, then rest your iron on the heat resistant surface and pull the binding through, folding and pressing it in one pass. We have been manually folding and pressing our bindings for ages and can't believe how much we love this new gadget! Click here to shop.
Thread Cutterz Ring - designed to cut fishing line!
 
Thread Cutterz have a super sharp ceramic blade leaving a clean cut on the end of your thread. Designed to wear as a thumb ring, the adjustable velcro strap will also wrap around a spool of thread for hand sewing. The ring keeps your thread from uncoiling and the blade is right where you need it when you want to cut a new piece of thread. Carol loves it for hand sewing bindings. Barb loves it for applique. Click on the pictures above to shop for black bling or pink bling.
