Corliss Trousseau 1870 Part 1 Hexagon Center Kit and Part 2 Border Frame – Blue

Description

This kit includes all of the fabric you need to create the hexagons for the Corliss Trousseau 1870 Hexagon Center – Part 1 and the Part 2 BLUE border fabric with additional red for the border hexagons. The Part 1 kit includes approximately 53 hand picked and hand cut quilt quality fabrics measuring 3″ x 40″. Each fabric is inspired by what was likely available to Corliss in her 1870 scrap bag and local General Store. My goal was to give you a representative sample of fabrics from the period and includes out of print reproduction fabric designs. The strips are wide enough to accommodate any size seam allowance you want to cut for your English Paper Pieced Hexagons. Fabrics may vary from the photo.

The Part 2 fabric includes hand cut BLUE border strips and additional red fabric to make the hexagons needed to complete this section of the quilt.

Limited number available.
