How to use it

• In patchwork, use this pink to quilt a white or grey block: quilting becomes a pattern in itself.
• On a pencil case or pouch, topstitch the round with a slightly longer stitch (3 mm) for a bold decorative effect.

Combine it with an ecru or pearl grey cotton and a lime green ribbon. A fine patchwork needle will facilitate the stitching on several layers.
