All Zweigart. We pre cut fat quarters but call us to order off the bolt for half metres or more!
7.5ct soft cotton fabric for punch needle work.
7ct, so easy to see and stitch and an excellent stable structure so it will try its hardest not to distort as you sew.. It has a lovely raw linen look weave, giving a vintage or rustic look to the finished work
We have 3 different sizes for you to choose from. Each pack has 2 sheets.
Flexible but sturdy plastic canvas, use for 3 dimensional projects, bags, book covers, decorations, key fobs, etc. It doesn't fray, is easy to cut and to handle.
Also great for young children learning to stitch as it keeps its shape.
We stock Zweigart canvas on rolls and cut to sell by the metre . If you are looking for bigger quantities or for something more obscure ! , please ask .
Again these colours are our pick .All from Zweigart . Lovely weight and drape and clear holes .if you are doing cross stitch ,work over two threads to give the equivalent of a 16 count holes per inch The linen works well for embroidery and all other counted thread work . We offer 32 count here as this is our particular favourite to work on - even though we do find a magnifier helps now !
These linen bands are made in Germany . The waft and weft are very clearly defined .They are either self edged or are patterned so as to provide a vertical border . Great for band samplers and great for small projects . We stock them on the roll and sell by the metre so please ring if you are wanting larger quantities .
We offer this in ivory in 23 or 40 count . that is the number of holes to the inch .
We hold it by the metre but cut it to smaller more workable pieces to sell. So if you would like a larger quantity ,please ask
we do also have some green and some black !.
