Twelve Spring Flowers in Toile Toile is especially right for this time of year when you want to sew on lighter fabrics. And, when many spring activities compete for your time, these designs sew almost effortlessly. The one-color designs won't demand your attention for a thread color change, once you have set the machine in motion. And, the low-stitch-count designs sew up in a jiffy. Yet, as simple as toile is to sew, its art is still complex. Stitch density, plus the use of negative space, gives depth and dimension to each lovely design.
Paisley Dragonfly Pack Playful dragonflies on the wing, race, hover, and dart among garden flowers and water lilies. Paisley wisps hint of water and air currents, the two realms of this ancient flier. A Japanese symbol for light and joy, the dragonfly is also an emblem for the creative imagination. These coordinating designs in many shapes will brighten up the cloudiest day, and bring the illusion of light and texture to quilts, bed linens, and curtains, as well as beautifully embellish scarves, sweaters, totes, and all things imaginable. The samples have been sewn in a couple of different color schemes. Let your imagination run wild with color!
