Creativity isn't just an innate talent. It's something we can learn, practise and develop. Our Improvisation Cards & Dice are a completely new way to approach abstract art, encouraging you to think differently, relinquish control and discover compositions you might never have imagined.

The set includes 36 beautifully illustrated cards, each featuring a creative prompt on one side and an inspiring quote about creativity on the other, alongside a dice to guide your decisions.

By rolling the dice and following the prompts, you'll gradually build your own abstract compositions, allowing chance to make decisions you might otherwise never consider. It's a wonderfully freeing way to break out of familiar habits, overcome the fear of a blank canvas and experiment with colour, shape and arrangement.

Originally developed to accompany our Improvisations appliqué collection, these cards can be used with our fabric bundles to create your own textile artwork. But they're equally suited to painting, collage, drawing or almost any other form of abstract art.

Whether you're a complete beginner or an experienced artist looking for a fresh perspective, these cards are an invitation to let go of the rules, embrace the unexpected and see where a little improvisation takes you.

Inspired by the playful abstraction of Joan Miró, the geometry of Piet Mondrian, the textiles of Anni Albers and the vibrant compositions of Paul Klee and Sonia Delaunay, The Improvisations are our first collection of abstract appliqué designs.

This fabric bundle includes 6 colours of fabric and fabric bondaweb. All you need are scissors and an iron.

The process is much like a fabric jigsaw - the bigger designs have more pieces so take longer to arrange. Even the largest design can be completed in 3 hours. The perfect activity for an afternoon.

This bundle contains three colours from our proprietary range of paints. These colours are chosen to all work well in combination, for use painting frames, decorations or anything else. Each jar contains 50mls of a specially mixed paint intended for decoration. The paint has high opacity so gives great coverage; it's water-based for easy cleaning; it's  quick-drying so you can easily paint a frame in one session; as well as being low odor and low VOC.
