Stompy’s Simple Sewing Kits

Simple could describe the kit or the sewing of this kit.


Simply made up from a piece of Binca fabric (the cross stitch fabric for children) with a shape drawn on it, some wool or yarn, a needle and some little embellishments.
Or
Simply stitched, if you choose, just fill in the shape with running stitch.

A full colour instruction booklet is included, with descriptions of how to do the basic stitches. The booklet includes examples of completed kits done with running stitch or patterns of stitches. There is also a guide to help you design your stitch pattern before you begin.

The kit includes a metal tapestry needle, so it is not suitable for small children - adult supervision is recommended.
An adult is also needed to iron on a cotton patch to cover the back of the finished sewing.

The kit comes presented in a box with a shaped window and is ideal for a gift.

Introducing Stompy’s Canvas Collage Kits



This kit is all you need to make a wonderful fun collage. Whether it is to give as a gift to a child or for you to make and personalise for someone special.
The collage kit contains a variety of materials from fabrics, buttons, felt and paper. Once cut, some materials are then hand finished with pens, inks or paint.
All the kits are hand produced, picked and finished and therefore no two kits are the same.

Party Parcel
We can also box up themed kits with a few added extras for that special crafty session at birthday parties.

Personalised Kits
For a small amount extra, we also offer the option to add coordinating letters to the kit so that the recipient can personalise their art work.

Each kit contains:

* 20cmx20cm (8x8 inch) canvas board - with name plate on the back
* Enough collage materials to make the collage - e.g. combinations of paper, fabric, felt, buttons, sequins, wool, netting, petals, wooden shapes, gems, ribbon, beads, or googly eyes
* 40ml pot of children’s glue
* A full colour instruction booklet
* A length of fabric tape make a loop to hang the canvas



 

More Fabric fun with the Silhouette SD

Again the Silhouette SD came to my rescue when making a named toy bag for my youngest daughter.

 

As with the owl wall hanging I used cheap iron on adhesive to stabilise the fabric and then cut out quite intricate and small pieces for the letters and image applique patches.

I reused lots of old fabric for this make, including some old roman blinds for the main fabric ( I had to turn it inside out to hide the horrible pattern) the patches are demin from old jeans and the lining is a mixture of fun fabric left over from making a girls dress and an old bed sheet.

It’s not the best shaped bag in the world, but it does what I intended it to do, and that is holds lots of toys (it can also carry a 20 month old, as Chloe decided that she would climb in too!)


Thanks for looking
