Clamshell Flower QAYG Quilt Kit in Sambramha

Enjoy the hand sewing technique of curved English paper-piecing together with quilt-as-you-go construction to make this gorgeous quilt - my full colour, easy-to-follow instructions will take you through every step.

This kit includes:

• Twelve fat quarters from Lewis & Irene's Sambramha collection, designed by John Scott
• Three half metres of Linen Textures Tomato, Azalea and Turquoise
• 2.7m of background fabric in Spectrum Solids Antique White
• 75cm of Spectrum Solid in Dark Blue (B08)
• Set of pre-cut EPP papers

You will also need:

• Temporary fabric glue pen available here
• Thread for hand-piecing – I recommend a 50wt Aurifil cotton, available here
• Optional - a set of acrylic templates, available here, to accompany this project which help with precise cutting and are also great for fussy-cutting - alternatively you can also use template plastic

• Gentle fabric starch – such as Mary Ellen’s Best Press available here
• Twelve 21” squares of wadding (1.6m of 90“ wide wadding)
• Twelve 21” squares for backing - I used 1.1m of three co-ordinating fabrics - if you would like to use the same Linen Textures as I did on the front, you can see the range here
• 50cm x wof of fabric for the joining strips for the back - I used the Spectrum Solid in Dark Blue (B08) here

• Basic sewing kit - fine long pins, a sewing needle (I recommend Sharps, but use a size you are comfortable with), fabric scissors, a thimble (optional) and a sewing machine with a ¼“ seam foot and a walking foot.
