About this item
Sew it yourself - make this fun Viking-themed memory game with 8 pairs of colourful felt and fabric tiles, with a matching drawstring bag. Pairs is a traditional game that develops short-term memory skills and observation and attention skills. This kit has images of Vikings, long boats, sea dragons, longhouses, and wooded islands - and is designed to appeal to pre-schoolers as well as offer enough complexity for older children. Presented in a sturdy cardboard box, this kit uses natural materials that are soft and fabulously tactile, as well as good for the environment. The finished tiles are approximately 3.5-inch squares, and store safely away in the fully lined little pouch, measuring 7 by 5 inches (18 by 13 cm). What's in the kit: - Wool felt (2 plain colours and 1 marled) - Precut fabric motifs backed with fusible web (8 pairs plus 2) - Quilting cotton (co-ordinating fabrics for the bag) - Cotton cord - Safety pin for threading - Quick how-to guide (printed instructions) - More detailed step-by-step instructions with colour photos will be emailed after purchase You will need your sewing machine, sewing thread, sharp scissors, pins, a tape measure or ruler, and a pencil. An iron and rotary blade with a cutting mat are useful, but not essential. OPTION: I can precut the felt into squares for you. NOTE: The exact motif images vary slightly in each kit. CARE: gentle hand washing and natural flat drying are recommended to prevent the wool felt from shrinking.

I absolutely love my vintage bookmark, the fabrics are gorgeous and my Christmas felt decoration is perfect for my fresh tree in December. Stitching is spot on. Thank you, Sharon. Prompt delivery, packaged beautifully in white tissue paper.
I was very pleased with my purchase. It was very well presented and came up to my expectations. Created to inspire! Lovely colour co-ordinations and quality materials,
Three gorgeous tags with vintage silk and lace. These are my favourite fabrics along with velvet. The fabrics on the tags are delightful. And the small buttons are so cute. Stitching is perfect. Absolutely love them. Thank you, Sharon.
