Template stamps are rubber stamps that have both the cutting line and piecing line. Single stamps are great for charm quilts. It saves tracing templates over and over. The sets can be used for the enclosed patterns, or use your imagination and make several different blocks from the same set. Use the preinked fabric ink pads for best results. Brown can be seen on the back of most fabrics. White is available for dark fabrics. Reinkers are available for both pads. You can usually get at least one quilt out of a preinked pad.

Tiny Stitches 2
This book is designed to help everyone that wants to learn to hand quilt efficiently and ergonomically. The book is packed with diagrams and pictures to help everyone step by step to achieve tinier hand quilting stitches. Tools, battings and tips are scattered throughout the guide.

Tumbler Stamp
3" x 2 3/4"
This updated version of my old stamp is available for a limited time only. The stamp will fit on 5" charm squares and is PERFECT for a beginner. Easy to hand or machine piece, although you KNOW I hand pieced my new version! I used Jo Morton fabrics for my new sample.

Baby Block Stamp
2" x 1 3/4"
Wow! You will be making these cute blocks as quick as a wink with this stamp. Pattern is included.

Log Cabin Stamp
This new little stamp will revolutionize your "cabin" building. The stamp has all the lines to cut for the entire block, so one stamp does it all! The blocks have 3 "rounds" and finish to 4 3/4", which will match with the Carpenter's Star set of stamps. I loved hand piecing my sample. It was so easy that I could piece it in my sleep. But, it can be machine pieced as well. Remember to purchase a white ink pad if you are using very light lights as the brown ink will shadow through.

Tennessee Log Cabin (28" x 24")
This new pattern uses both the log cabin stamp and the large "add on" triangle. If you buy both, you get the pattern free. If you have both stamps, just request a copy of the pattern with your next order. Cindy made her quilt with Jo Morton fabric lines. Purchase both stamps and get a discount on the price.

Aunt Hattie's Hexagons
2" x 2 1/4"
This unique hexagon quilt was made with 40 - 10" reproduction civil war squares. Set with black, the hexagons really pop! Or use the stamp to make your own version of grandmother's flower garden. Pattern is included with the stamp.

Mini Hexagon
7/8" x 1"
This little 1" hexagon will make the cutest doll quilts and miniatures. This stamp is not recommended as your first stamp. The seam allowance is only 1/8". My stitching group didn't have problems testing it for me, but they are experienced hand piecers. The stamp includes the pattern for the 10" x 12" doll quilt.

Apple Core
2" x 3"
One of the most popular template stamps, this stamp features reference marks for ease in pinning. No more folding the fabric to find the centers! Yea! Pattern is included with the stamp.

Thimble Stamp
1" x 1 1/8"
Returning for a limited time, this little stamp will fit on 2" squares of fabric. Make a charm quilt with your tiny scraps!

Picket Fence
1 1/2" x 3"
This new stamp set with 2 stamps is sure to be one of your favorites. I made a charm quilt with 216 different Jo Morton fabrics. The arrangement is very unusual. My quilt was a wall hanging, but this quilt could grow on your easily! And to finish my example, I big stitched it with my Valdani perle cotton!

Honeycomb Stars
This quilt was featured in American Patchwork June 2010. The stamp set includes 2 stamps, a large hexagon (about 3 1/2" x 3 3/4") with a reference mark and a very small (1") 60° diamond. The instructions come with the pattern.

Seven Sisters (24" x 28")
This pattern is another version of the honeycomb stars. You MUST have the stamp set to make this quilt, as no sizes or templates are included. The pattern is FREE with the purchase of the stamp set. If you have already purchased the set and would like a copy of the pattern, I'd be glad to send it to you with your order. Just request it on the bottom of the order form and enclose postage.

Spool
2 3/4" block
This little set of stamps will have you keeping up with your European cousins. So adorable, this 3" block can be made up easily. The set consists of 2 stamps. A great portable project.

Churn Dash Stamp Set
3 3/4" block
So darn cute, who can resist making these blocks by the dozen? This 3 stamp set can be used in many ways, to make other blocks. These blocks will match up with the Mini Civil War Sampler blocks, but are NOT the same pieces as the sawtooth star set of stamps.

Churn Dash Sampler (26" x 26")
Use your churn dash stamps to make this adorable sampler of 13 different blocks (or use the enclosed templates). The embroidered border was made with the new Valdani "Handwork in the Smokies" collection. These 13 blocks will match up with the "Civil War Mini Sampler" blocks to add more blocks to your collection.

Mariner's Compass Set
11 1/4"
This is the same five stamp set of stamps but with a different pattern cover, similar to the "Wilderness Walk" pattern made at the 2011 Handwork in the Smokies. So accurate you will be able to machine or hand stitch your block with NO paper piecing!

Sunflower Set
4 3/4" block
The four stamps included in this set will make the cutest little sunflower. This stamp has small pieces, so it is not recommended as your first project. But if you love little, this set is for you! (Pattern is included with the stamps.)

Mountain Blossoms (40" x 40")
Using patchwork, hand embroidery and applique, make this heirloom quilt. The embroidery enhances the center design. Use the sunflower set of templates or trace the enclosed templates in the pattern. This embroidery design can also be used in the corners of the "Lone Star Blossoms" pattern.

Lone Star Blossoms (51" x 51")
Lone star quilts are wonderful. Add embroidery and you have a stunner! The pieced outer border is optional. All the fabrics except for the border and background are from the wonderful fabric lines by Jo Morton for Andover Fabrics. I hand pieced this quilt using the "Carpenter's Star" diamond and the "Little Sunflower" set of stamps for the background blocks, but templates are included for those of you that love to machine piece.

Stamp Basket Set
3 1/4" block
Based on the postage stamp that was issued in 1978, this cute four-stamp set will make you a "basket case". So adorable, you will want to make more than one. Individual blocks make wonderful Christmas ornaments. (Pattern is now included with the stamps.)

Eight Pointed Star Set (Carpenter's Wheel)
4 3/4" block
This three-stamp set can be used two ways! Make the most accurate star blocks you have ever made or make the larger 9 1/2" Carpenter's wheel block. (Pattern for the Carpenter's Star is included.)

Lone Star Blossoms (51" x 51")
Lone star quilts are wonderful. Add embroidery and you have a stunner! The pieced outer border is optional. All the fabrics except for the border and background are from the wonderful fabric lines by Jo Morton for Andover Fabrics. I hand pieced this quilt using the "Carpenter's Star" diamond and the "Little Sunflower" set of stamps for the background blocks, but templates are included for those of you that love to machine piece.

Sawtooth Star Set
This set will be your favorite! It contains 5 stamps: 2 triangles, 2 squares, and the sashing strip rectangle. You will be able to make the sawtooth star plus lots of other 4 patch designs (finish to 3 3/4") as well as 9 patch designs (finish to 5 3/4").

Civil War Mini Sampler (27" x 27")
Looking for a quilt to showcase those wonderful reproduction fabrics? This pattern is it! Each block is only 4" and can be machine or hand pieced. (It is a great portable project if you are hand piecing!) Instructions are included for all twenty-five blocks. To make marking the pieces easier, order the Sawtooth Star set of Template Stamps.

Nine Patch Civil War Sampler (37" x 37")
The long awaited sequel to the mini sampler is here! For those of you that wanted a larger block, this quilt boasts 5 3/4" blocks. Make the sampler with your civil war reproductions or any fabrics. I used the Sawtooth Star set of template stamps to make this quilt, but templates are included.

Bears and Berries
From the 2008 "Handwork in the Smokies" seminar, this quilt will have you looking at the classic bear paw block from a different angle. Each quilt is enhanced with hand embroidery. The pattern contains the full size embroidery designs. Both use the sawtooth star set of stamps. If you like the strippy version, don't forget the 3" triangle add on stamp. The strippy version measures 36" x 42". The block version measures 34" x 34". I used the Valdani Vintage Hues Sampler for my embroidery on this quilt.

3" Triangle Add On
This new side triangle stamp is used in conjunction with the "Sawtooth Star" set of stamps in the new "Bears and Berries" pattern. This stamp will save time when making the strippy version of the quilt.

Washout Graphite Pencils
Cindy searched everywhere and finally found these fabulous wash out pencils for marking light fabrics. The best part is that they can be sharpened in an electric pencil sharpener.

Lady Finger Thimbles
I love good working thimbles and have been searching for one that will hold the base of the needle in place as I quilt and hand piece. The "lady finger" open top is the first thimble I have found that can replace the sometimes shallow dimples of my old open top thimbles and at a good price. And good news, there are only 3 sizes to fit! A small is the same as a 5/6. The medium is a 7/8. The large is a 9/10. These thimbles are rubber coated to keep the needle lodged on the side where it belongs. Try one and you'll be coming back for more.

Valdani "Handwork in the Smokies Collection"
This brand new set of colors is like the paint box you got in school. You won't know which color to choose first. Cindy chose these colors to reflect her home in TN. The grape and cranberry colors are new Valdani colors. They blend beautifully with the red/purple and bright blue purple. The other colors are burnt orange, gold, brown, red and 2 greens. You will love using them. Cindy uses one color for stem stitch and then chooses another color to stem stitch just above the first color. The look is GREAT! Try it!

Clover Embroidery Threader
You'll wonder what you did without this little gadget! My sister found it for me and I have been using it now for all threading of that lovely Valdani thread. The metal flat threading end fits nicely in the Chenille 24 needles that I love to use for embroidery. No more biting of the end of the thread or tearing your hair out trying to thread your embroidery thread. Order two of them, they are that wonderful!

Wool Needle Keeper
You have loved these little keepers since my sister, Gayle, has started making them for me. Now you can purchase one finished by my sister. They are made from real wool, not wool felt, and are hand stitched by Gayle, not made in China! :) They will hold your package of needles, thread, thimble and pins. I use mine all the time when traveling with my hand piecing. You'll want more than one! Please let us decide the color.

Wool Block Keeper
For those of you that LOVE the needle keepers that my sister, Gayle, makes for me, you will LOVE the block keeper! Gayle and I designed a larger format to be able to tie in 2 spools of quilting thread, a pocket for your scissors and needles, and a fold out piece of wool that you can lay out on your lap when traveling to accommodate your small handwork pieces. There is even a pocket that if formed under the fold out piece to put your pieces! Made by Gayle with REAL wool, not wool felt.

Embroidery Guide
Leisure Arts has reissued one of my favorite products, a laminated folded pocket guide with 50 different embroidery stitches. It is a favorite of my students, too!

5" No Slip Emboridery Hoop
I have used many different hoops to secure my work and think this is the best on the market.

Richard Hemming Needles
These are the wonderful size 10 sharps that Cindy recommends and uses for all her hand piecing. You won't use any other brand, once you try these!

Clover Gold Eye Quilting Needles
As recommended in her book, Tiny Stitches, these are the only quilting needles Cindy uses. Size 12 is the only size we carry. They are gold eye for easier threading.

Clover Patchwork Pins
These pins are Cindy's favorite for any of her hand piecing projects. They are long, very thin with a glass head.

Clover size 24 Gold Eye Chenille Needles
These needles are fabulous for Big Stitch and doing stitching with the perle cotton that Cindy recommends for her embroidered medallion quilts. They don't drag like other brands and will thread easier with their big gold eyes.

Coats & Clark Dogwood Quilting Thread
This is a fabulous color of thread to piece your scrappy quilts! (Yes, Cindy uses Quilting Thread to hand piece those beautiful quilts!) This color blends so wonderfully with so many fabrics. Cindy uses this thread to piece almost all her hand pieced quilts.

Coats & Clark Chona Brown Quilting Thread
This is my second most favorite color for stitching my pieces together. With my new block keeper, I can put both my dogwood and chona brown, so both are in easy reach of my piecing. This is reformulated thread and is slick and strong.

Preinked Fabric Stamp Pads
These stamp pads are to be used in conjunction with the template stamps. A permanent ink that can be used on the back side of the fabric. Will not bleed or show through. Pads are available in brown (for most of your stamping needs) and white (for darker fabrics).

Refill Ink
The preinked stamp pads last a very long time. But for those of you that LOVE to stamp and use your pads all the time, you can purchase fabric ink to replenish your pads. Refill ink comes in white and brown.
