Thangles Candlemats

 

Throwback Thursday

We love the whole Thangles programme  – no maths ; sew on the dotted line and cut on the solid line – and it was a great success at the West Country Quilt Show with lots of ladies going home inspired to sew after Valerie’s demo. Watch Now+

We have a couple of great little candlemat kits in the shop which take no time at all to make – and if you are really hooked – how about the Flurry Sampler quilt  – the pattern is available on its own so you can use up your stash, or you can make one just like the workshop by purchasing the kit.
