This project is a sampler of techniques and is a terrific
introduction to goldwork. It is a contemporary design featuring

17 cm x 15 cm. Unfortunately, the background fabric displayed
is no longer available so you now have a choice of either a dark
olive green silk dupion or a natural coloured linen/cotton mix
fabric. (Both have been used in classes and still keep the natural
feel of the piece.) The kit contains background fabric, gold kid,
metal purls, Madeira silk, couching threads, beads, needles and
instructions and costs $65.00.
