It's back, and better than before!  Now with a thicker (5wt.) hand-dyed, colorfast perle cotton by Valdani, a perfect match for the slubby, handwoven bogolan (mudcloth).  Create a patchwork to form a unique backdrop for your own slow-stitching and hand embroidery. We've also added a piece of solid cream bogolan to use as background or add to the patchwork.  Lisa has curated the Valdani perle cotton colors  to complement the  warm, earthy colors of the fabrics.  The COMPLETE KIT INCLUDES:

 

  • 10 Bogolan Bits, each at least 6" long x strip width
  • 6 coordinating balls of Valdani 5 wt. perle cotton - Hand-Dyed and Colorfast solids and variegated
  • Solid cream bogolan to use as a background or mix into your patchwork
  • Cowrie shells
  • Instructions, tips and techniques
  • BONUS! Hand embroidery needles

 

NOTE:   While the 6 perle cotton colors are exactly as shown for all kits, the 10 bogolan fabrics will vary between kits. 

Order the full kit (fabrics, threads and instructions), or just the 10 bogolan pieces, or just the 6 hand-dyed Valdani thread balls.

 

Be inspired by various elements of global slow-stitch influences like Siddi patchwork of India (created by women of East African descent), kantha and kawandi styles of quilting from India, and Japanese boro stitching and sashiko.
