What Are Quilters Blogging About Today?

We have a fabulous new collection in the shop this week.

We received Zen Garden from Stephanie Brandenburg. Stephanie has been designing fabric for years, but recently partnered with Northcott Fabrics for the printing and distribution of her brand Frond Design Studios.

Stephanie is a painter first and all over her fabric collections are inspired by the boldly colored nature-scapes she creates first with paint and brush. Zen Garden is no exception to the bold beauty she is known for and it is a must add to your collection.

We also created new kits for our most popular bag pattern ...

We have the most adorable new modern fabrics to share with you this week.

And for something completely different we have Tutu Much Attitude ...

It’s been a minute since we did a new arrivals video, so we have A LOT to share with you today!

We have beautiful new fat quarter bundles from Anna Maria Horner and Tim Holtz. Anna Maria delivers beautiful color contrasts with bold color choices and large modern florals and does not disappoint.

Tim Holtz branches out a bit from his normal earth tones to create graffiti-like textures in some rich jewel tones. It still could work for a “man quilt” and I am just in love with his latest collection.

Then we’ve got three new kits for ...
