Scribbles Petite Tear-Away Quilting Paper by Urban Elementz

Meander past straight-line quilting with the Tear-Away Quilting Paper from Urban Elementz! Designed to help quilters add flair to their finished quilts with printed pantographs at home, this paper can be modified to any size by following the instructions. The Scribbles Petite design is their most popular edge-to-edge design, and basting spray and a shortened stitch length is recommended to quilt with this paper.

1.5″ Square Ruler by Creative Grids

The smallest things are oftentimes the sweetest! The 1.5″ square ruler from Creative Grids is tiny but mighty on your cutting mat. Use it to fussy cut mini motifs, square up tiny half-square triangles, and trim down little scraps.

Harbor Mettler 100% Cotton Silk Finish Thread

Rest easy with this Mettler 50wt thread spool in the hue of Harbor. Deep blue blends well with darker prints and backgrounds. With 109 yards on each spool, these threads will keep your sewing machine happily humming along.

Sunray Quilt Pattern by Fat Quarter Shop
Sew Sampler exclusive!

The Sunray quilt pattern is good as gold! This exclusive fat-quarter friendly quilt design easily shines in any fabric palette, but it sparkles when combined with the Day in the Life fat quarter bundle included in this month’s box! The 1.5″ Square Ruler also comes in handy for this pattern for a solid-gold sewing experience.

Finishing Kit available at Fat Quarter Shop.

  1. I love this month’s box, the colors in the fabric bundle are gorgeous, and the ruler is the cuties thing I’ve ever seen.

    1. You can’t purchase it through Fat Quarter Shop as it’s exclusive to the box. If you’re on Facebook there’s a Sew Sampler swap group you can see if anyone wants to trade or something, other than that you can try eBay or Etsy if anyone is selling theirs.

  2. NOT one of my favorite sampler boxes. Gave away everything but the Mettler thread which I love ❤️ and the “cute” teeny, tiny ruler. Yes, it’s “cute” but not useful or practical – for me. Way too small. I had my hubby drill a hole in it so I could put it on my key chain. Quilt pattern had lots of teeny, tiny squares so me & my old, arthritic hands were not a fan. I use my embroidery unit to quilt with Edge to Edge software so I wouldn’t use the scribbles paper for free-motion quilting. This box made a couple of my sewing buddies happy! Maybe next box will be better for me. Always nice to receive the Sampler box; there’s always something I can use.

  3. I used to look forward to these boxes. It seems like my past 2 boxes, july and august have been shorted items. I did not receive the any thread or tear away quilt paper in august box nor the June tayler quilt bag kit from July Very disappointing to read the blog reveal only to find I have been shorted.

    1. Barb – did you call the Fat Quarter Shop and let them know? Their customer service is the best! Sorry you did not receive some of your items. I’m sure they will make it right if you talk to them.

    2. Hi Barb! I’m sorry to hear this!
