The Maderia Tin Project

 

 

   The Madeira Tin and Sewing Set is designed to feature the lovely sampler fabric and tin from Moda’s Madeira collection by Blackbird Designs.  Motifs inspired by the sampler fabric are featured on the pinkeep/needlebook and biscornu.  The scissors fob and  ditty bag were originally designed to be sewn from the strips in the jelly roll of fabric that was sold with the tin when the fabric line was first released (a jelly roll will not be included in the tin for this class).  I will have scraps of my jelly roll available if you would like to make these items.& nbsp; A sewing machine is best to make these.  There is a color photo of the sampler that can be mounted in the window of the tin.  Lakeside 32 count linen is supplied in the kit as well as 3 colors of Gloriana silk floss and silk ribbon and the fabric to line the tin and the accessories.

A design for a tote bag is included in the instructions, but will not be covered in class.  You will need to purchase additional fabric from a quilt shop to make the bag.  (9 jelly roll strips (2 1/2” wide x width of fabric), 1 yard of sampler fabric and 1 yard of your favorite print for lining and handles, plus batting)  To make the bag you need machine sewing skills.
