This one started when a friend gave me some of the prettiest hankie I had ever seen -- green in the middle with some beautiful blue edges. Then a trip to the yarn store revealed some coordinating famous maker wool yarn. I was hooked! And here they are for you -- now each kit has 6 colors of fabric,  more roving and these beautiful yarns and hankies. Available on either a marine blue or olive green prefelt, specify when you order! Enjoy!

A sample piece made from a similar kit.

This one got some oohs and ahs at a recent class I taught. Very warm and inviting pinks, red purples and warm golds. Includes matching roving, yarns and custom hankie. Now on a red purple or pink background. (Please specify)

Check out this beautiful piece made by Jane LaFazio with this kit! See her blog entry at http://janeville.blogspot.com/2010/06/1.html   She added some sari yarn and embroidery threads to complete this amazing work!

 Soft corals and pinks, beautiful pale gold and olive green. This one is on a green background, or if you prefer, I can substitute a natural white background. Here is the inspiration for this kit:

 
This one has warm oranges, reds, pinks, and lime green -- on a paprika or dark brown background. (please specify) Speak out about this issue with your art! 

 
Purples, marine, turquoise and navy blues. Also looks good on the marine blue prefelt (please specify when ordering).

There are some pretty pieces of fabric in here with strong crystaline patterns. Here is a picture of the fabrics before they were cut:

 Leatrice Eiseman calls these the colors of Spirit in her Book Color -- Messages and Meanings. These blues and purples are beautiful together. This would also make a nice landscape picture. The kit has some pale yellow like the morning sky.

This kit is on a black prefelt with jewel tones including lots of copper, blue greens and red purples. 

Here is a cuff I made from similar colors:

This is a discontinued color and is on clearance. Good to use as a starter kit if you are learning! There is not enough silk in these older kits to completely cover the prefelt, but you might be able to add some from your stash!

Here is an art quilt that Lu made from this kit. (Note -- we added some white prefelt -- available to purchase for $1.25 for a small sheet -- just email me! The black background, fabric for bindings, beads and thread for stitching are not included!)

This kit has my favorite rusted fabrics. I've made several purses and pouches and my friend Lu made the cutest journal out of one. This kit was very popular in Asheville!

separately for $15) made from this kit     Picture of a little purse made from this kit

Here are some things I have done with a similar piece:  

There is enough material here to make two cuffs. (No snaps included). The finished piece the way I felted it looks like this (note -- this piece was on a white background, this kit now contains a green background)

I sell the dupioni covered journals for $15 -- email me if you would like a journal or just some of the matching dupioni fabric to make what you would like!

Your reward for reading all the way down the page! By request: I am going to try this -- everyone has colors they love, so tell me what yours are! Pick 6 colors of fabric and a prefelt color from the ones you see above. Let me know if you have a preference for gauze (chiffon) or habotai.  I will add silk hankie, velvet, dupioni and wool roving to coordinate. No yarns included.
