My Woolie porch has an antique sewing machine adorned with a pretty topiary tree with a flag. National Sewing Day is in June each year. What better summer decor than a flag! The door has a cute little garden flag celebrating National Sewing Day! Don’t be intimidated- because you can stitch the flags with ease…just a few lazy Daisy flowers and stem stitch letters. (You could even print it on cotton if you want to do it quick and then just stitch the flowers.) If you change the words on the banner to USA or Celebrate 250 you have a little patriotic in this project!
The fabric kit will contain the homespun background and woolens used on the block. It also contains preprinted Transfer Eze for both the National Sewing Day writing and the iron decor over the door. This will make stitching these parts so easy. When the stitching is done, rinse the transfer paper off in cold water. Voila’! The fabric kit is priced at $24.99 and includes the printed pattern. Or you can order a fabric kit alone for $18.99 and print your own pattern. During my spotlight days the download pattern will be FREE! You can purchase a downloadable pattern by clicking HERE for $5 before and after my spotlight days or wait for the price to be changed to free on my spotlight days and download it at that time. Spotlight days for all blocks are being posted daily in the Wooly Block Adventure FB page. My patterns contain preprinted freezer paper templates ready for you to start cutting right away! If you prefer fusing, you can still use these templates- the fusible goes on the back, the freezer paper templates goes on the front! NO tracing needed! A thread kit containing Valdani and Sulky threads specially chosen to work with these beautiful woolens is available for $22.90 . And if you’d like, add a pack of cute sewing themed buttons for $7.95 while supplies last. Each pack is a different assortment of random sewing themed wooden buttons. If you purchase the Full Bundle including fabric kit with pattern and the thread kit you'll get a special DISCOUNTED price of $43.79! Of course you will have extra thread for future projects! **Would you like a different color for your door? We have lots of woolens available in fat 8ths or 16ths very reasonably priced in the Woolen section of the website. Be sure to check them out!
As an add on, we included finishing instructions for a small scalloped border. Notice the photo with the scalloped border added as well as the mock up quilt I've made using the tracing tool and the blocks released so far to make the scalloped background. Add a piece of teal wool from the list above to use for this border and backing should you choose to finish it this way.
