New King Tuts

I am excited to let you know that I have just taken delivery of 21 new King Tut colours, in addition to the four new colours that were released about 18 months ago.

This is a picture of the colours which as you can see are quite muted but fill a lot of gaps in the existing range.

I'm not sure if I will have time to get them up on the website before Quilts UK in Malvern in 10 days time......but they will be available for sale at the show.

The Willow collection by McKenna Ryan has also arrived in stock now.

Heavenly Hollyhocks!

After a busy couple of weeks I have now managed to upload these fabrics to the website. There are two colourways; coral and mauve.

I have also made a couple of quick quilts using fabrics from the collection. The first makes use of the full fabric width design and is VERY quick and simple to make.

The second quilt is the same pattern as the Spring Hill wall hanging. The large-scale hollyhock print lends itself to being used in the large piece that this quilt demands.

I hope these project ideas inspire you.

Coming soon..............Willow designed by McKenna Ryan for Hoffman.

Heavenly Hollyhocks!

This is a really heavenly new collection from Northcott and I'm really excited about it.......and its just arrived in stock! The main fabric is a full width pattern featuring tall hollyhocks.

and there are some great co-ordinating fabrics too. I can't wait to create some quilt patterns for you to download.

I should get the fabrics up on the website in a couple of weeks after I have been to Llangollen in Wales for the traders' day at Quiltfest and the Quilt Festival in Edinburgh the weekend after.

If you are going to either show you will get to see the fabrics first hand!

More New Fabrics

Well I almost managed to get the remaining new fabrics uploaded before getting Thomas from school but they are up on the site now; some fun bug fabrics, a couple of useful stripes and the cutest panda panel strips.

But oops...I got the price wrong on the Spring Hill wall hanging kit - it should have been £8.50 not £7.75 as I previously posted.

Hopefully, the next delivery will include Willow designed by McKenna Ryan for Hoffman fabrics and this should be arriving in the next month or so.

Spring Hill Pattern

Wow I am doing well.....I have just uploaded the free Spring Hill pattern that you can download and have also put the kits for sale in the online store. These are priced at £7.75. This project is a great simple quilt that is quick to make so if you know someone who is new to the world of quilting or want to make something at short notice for a friend then this is the quilt for you!

Now, I might just have time to get a handful of other fabrics online if I'm quick so.........ttfn!

Spring Hill Collection

I have just uploaded the fabrics that arrived last week. They were from the Spring Hill collection from Robert Kaufman and feature a fantastic poppy print. The fabric here is from the vintage colourway. The other colours available are the traditional red poppy

and the third colour way is called natural. There are three co-ordinating prints too. I have made a quick wall hanging in this natural colour and will be uploading a free pattern to make it in the next day or so. It was very quick and simple to make and I will also be putting some kits together.

October Swatch Sheet

I've just uploaded the swatch sheet for the fabrics that were delivered in October.....oops a few months late!.....so you can now download the fabric swatches from the Natures Palette collection and the Serendipity Butterflies collection both from Lyndhurst Studio.

I had a delivery of new fabrics last week so will hopefully get those ready to up on the website very shortly (fingers crossed)
