The Grove Creations
$31.00The Grove Creations PDF bundle is a set of 4 PDF patterns to make for the home. This project came about when we were renovating the Merchant & Mills house in Rye (The Grove) and wanted to use our fabrics but within a home setting. Your PDF includes:
Duvet Set
Instructions for making two duvet sets, one with concealed buttons and one with ties. Matching pillow slips, again either with buttons or ties. Included are options for single, double, king and super king. We recommend using an extra wide linen (280cm), but we have included a formula if you are using narrower fabric.
Pillowcase
Instructions for making a simple pillowcase with a deep envelope. Ideal as scatter cushions for the bed or sofa.
Quilt & Sofa/Bed Topper
Instructions for making a quilt or a topper for a bed or sofa. We designed this quilt as an ideal way to showcase our laundered linens, it’s very fun picking the combinations! The toppers are ideal for covering a sofa that your dog might want to keep jumping on, or toppers for wooden benches like we have in the pictures. The topper is made using self made fabric ties, and the quilt is made with lots of ties of linen thread. But these techniques can be interchangeable.
Relaxed Blind
Instructions for making a simple draped roman blind. This type of blind is a more modern take on a traditional roman blind and very much suits a laundered linen for an informal look. The PDF includes a link for where you can buy all of the little sundries for making this blind.

Skipper Top & Dress
$25.00 – $43.00The Skipper Top and Dress has a relaxed, breezy silhouette with a loose and boxy fit, but is not oversized. It features a scoop neck and slight dropped shoulders, giving a mini cap sleeve appearance. The back has a high yoke with a soft, gathered panel. View A is a slightly cropped top designed to hit between the belly button and high hip, View B is a mini dress with patch pockets and View C is a midi dress with inseam pockets and side slits. Both dress views create a flattering, column-like silhouette.
With all Matchy Matchy sewing patterns we’ve designed the Skipper Top + Dress with simple shapes in mind, making each project a joyful and creative experience that you will want to make over and over again.
