You don't choose fabrics or work out yardage, and most of the cutting is done. It isn't a fully precut kit, though: the pattern still has its own cuts. In Cherry Blossom there's one: each white square is trimmed to 5\" x 4 1\/2\" before you sew.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat's included\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4 packs of Blossom Breeze 2.5\" x 10\" mini strips, 40 to a pack (160 strips).

Forty prints and one white to let them breathe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBlossom Breeze is a garden in early summer, caught at the hour when the light is still soft. Pink and coral, aqua and turquoise, deep navy and true red, with lavender, sage and cream in between. Put forty of those side by side with nothing between them and the eye has nowhere to rest. A plain white does the opposite job. It gives every print a clean edge and a bit of space around it, which is why so many scrappy quilts lean on a light background to hold the whole thing together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy the prints and the white belong together\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth cuts sit on the same 2.5\" grid. Cut a 5\" white square in half and you get two pieces measuring 2.5\" x 5\". Cut a 2.5\" x 10\" Blossom Breeze strip in half and you get exactly the same size. So a print piece and a white piece swap in and out of a block without any extra math: prints where you want color, white where you want space, and whole 5\" squares when you want a quiet setting square between busier blocks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne note before you plan around them. The strips are short 10\" cuts, not full width-of-fabric jelly roll strips. That shorter cut is what keeps 244 precut pieces in one box, and it suits blocks, strip patchwork, and small makes rather than full-length borders or long strip sets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures \u0026amp; Benefits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e100% Cotton\u003c\/strong\u003e so that every piece is easy to press and simple to sew.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLightweight Weave, 120 GSM\u003c\/strong\u003e so that the fabric is easy to handle and forgiving for everyday makes (it is on the thinner, slightly sheer side, so worth keeping in mind for projects where coverage matters).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrints and a Solid in One Box\u003c\/strong\u003e so that you have your background ready the day you start, instead of hunting for a matching white.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e40 Coordinated Blossom Breeze Prints\u003c\/strong\u003e so that the strips work together across the whole project, with 4 strips of every print.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e84 White 5\" Squares\u003c\/strong\u003e so that you can use them whole as setting squares or cut them down to 2.5\" pieces for your blocks.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOne Shared 2.5\" Grid\u003c\/strong\u003e so that print pieces and white pieces line up without recalculating anything.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePre-cut and Ready to Sew\u003c\/strong\u003e so that you can skip the measuring and the cutting and go straight to the machine.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGreat For\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eScrappy blocks with a light background, rail fence and strip piecing, checkerboard and nine patch designs, table runners, placemats, mug rugs, cushions, mini quilts, and batches of handmade gifts.
