The Frog: Visible Mending Transfers
Frogs are masters of transition. They live between water and land, breathe through skin, and transform completely just to survive. In folklore, art, and cartoons, frogs have always carried a strange double meaning—both humble and magical—which is why we called this pack The Frog, a quiet nod to Kelso the Frog and the way symbols slip between seriousness and play. This kit draws on frog forms and movement to translate that in-between energy into stitches that feel curious, adaptable, and alive.
Each 4 transfer cutout measures 4.25" by 5.5"
How to Use Your Visible Mending Transfers
Prep Your Fabric: Make sure your fabric is clean and dry before starting.
Choose Your Design: Pick one of the three designs from the set.
Apply the Transfer: Place the transfer design with the printed side facing the fabric. Gently press to activate the adhesive.
Stitch: Use a needle and thread to stitch along the design, following the printed lines. Feel free to add your own flair or skip areas you don't like.
Rinse and Reveal: Once your stitching is complete, rinse the fabric to remove the stabilizer. Your design will stay in place, and the stabilizer will wash away!

Our Process
Purpose in Repurposing
Everything I make at m.a.b.e.l takes time. I find and like to work with pre-1950s quilts because of their natural fibers and their designs that are so old they’re modern again. I work slowly to appreciate all the handwork and decisions that once created them. Every quilt is beautifully unique, and I love making it shine.

Out with the old...
At m.a.b.e.l, everything old can be new again. Send me your used m.a.b.e.l coat or popover (it’ll be repurposed once again!) and I'll give you a discount on your next one!
UPCYCLE YOUR QUILT Send us your quilt, and we'll give it new life. Learn more.
