THREADS
Since this collection is all about the
instruments and the music they create,
we based our threads off of the color
of the instruments featured. Then we
supplemented them with a few pops of
classic colors such as red, green, and gold.
FABRIC
To keep with the classical theme, we used
an assortment of silks and satins for our
appliqués. Try matching your fabrics to
your thread colors and the colors of actual
instruments.
NOTIONS
To stitch this collection, you’ll just need a
