Block Print Patches Packs

Indian block prints!

There is a wonderful quality to a carved wooden block, whether it has been wrought by the finest artisan in great detail, or more boldly chiseled to create a strong rustic image. I love them all, and most of all I love that a real person's hands made them, perceived flaws and all.

Here are four different sets of block printed fabric patches I have made for you to use in your own work -

repair a tear in your clothes ~ stitch onto a pretty fabric to make a pincushion, a needle case, a page in a fabric story book ~ add to collage ~ stick them in your journal ~ attach to a card to send to a friend or as a tag for a gift ~ include them in your boro style stitching or patchwork ~ fill them with embroidery stitches and wear as a brooch...

Each set includes blocks printed in black, in soft blue and in a natural linen shade.

Most of the patches are of a soft vintage white cotton. After printing all patches have been heat set and are washable at 30*C.
