The Flat-fold ™   $19.50

(This is the "original" Flat-fold...all others you may see around are a spin off of this original design) 

The stitch designs pictured above are Mill Hill designs

Just what the heck is a Flat-fold?  I have been asked this question over and over again.  I have always answered that it is a finishing technique that I designed as an alternative to stuffed stand-ups and framing.  I kept telling stitchers that one day I would write a little instruction book showing exactly what a Flat-fold is and how to assemble one...and, here it is!

This is just one of the center color pictures featured in the Flat-fold book.  Is this great or what?  Now you can see just one of the reasons I love these Flat-folds.  Stitch, display, stack and change.  Imagine the possibilities!

Below are a few Flat-folds for you to enjoy. You might even get some new ideas for your flat-fold.  

  Chris Lorian stitched these two very "not so scary guys".  I believe these are designs from Heart In Hand.  I know you will all correct me if I am wrong, please.  :)
