The Seed acrylic template ...

You may find that an orange peel pattern is addictive and I can promise you that using my Blue Seed template really speeds up the process!

It also makes using novelty fabrics very easy and effective! 

See also the Summer Seed pattern in the "patterns" section of the website.

The  Acrylic Summer Seed template is excellent for tracing and marking your Seed positions BUT...

the Setting Square completes the set. 

No more guessing if your Seed is positioned correctly. Its perfect everytime!

You can also use the square to cut your fabric squares.

Create a modern,yet silghty vintage look to your Seed (Orange Peel) quilt.

I offer 15 mm Ric Rack, in 6 yummy colours, for you to sew under your Seed shape...or anywhere else!

Mettler 60Wt fine cotton thread

I use 60 wt thread for piecing, fine machine quilting, hand applique and as a

perfect bobbin thread with Monofiliment, Metallic and Rayon threads.  

It is strong but gentle.

Available in 800 metre spools 

Cream and soft grey are my favourite colours for piecing.

YLI Monofilament is my favourite "invisible" thread! I began using it in the mid 1980's when I developed my Invisible Machine Applique technique. It is a soft nylon that breaks as easily as a cotton thread and it is safe to press.

I recommend using a 60 weight cotton in the bobbin and a 70/10 Microtex Needle.

Great for Invisible Machine Applique and machine quilting where you don't want the thread to show!
