March Fabric Focus

 

Sweet Tweet by Mitzi Powers for Benartex P651/09

 

Last month we featured Timsbury Lane and spoke about Spring being just around the corner, this week we have just a month until Easter and we have great projects and fabrics for the season! The fabrics we are Just Hatched from Quilting Treasures, and Baby Talk  and Sweet Tweet by Benartex.

 

 

All of these fabrics are in bright fun colours such as yellows, purples, greens and blues. As you would expect the Just Hatched collection consists of Easter eggs, fluffy chicks and a few Easter bunnies for good measure. Baby Talk carries on the yellow chick theme but with a baby pink background. Sweet Tweet adds some Spring time birds to our Easter collection, the blue and yellow birds are decorated with intricate floral patterns to create a bold design.

Baby Talk 2481 by Benartex

So what projects can we suggest for Easter? As always there are loads of options. We think a wall hanging would be great fun to decorate a Child’s bedroom. For the dining room you could make a fun Easter table runner, try this table runner pattern that allows you to incorporate lots of different fabrics and colours. For the Easter egg hunt, you could make our simple Shopper bag pattern in the Just Hatched fabrics that can be used to collect all the Easter eggs.

 

All of these projects are easy to do but if you need some help or you have something a bit more challenging in mind then you can join Chris Hinchliff and Kate Frankland for their Quilt Escape class on Tuesday.

April Fabric Focus

Welcome back to our monthly Featured Fabrics! Last month we showed you the adorable Timeless Treasures Mini Safari collection, this month we are sticking with the nature theme with a bold explosion of floral prints. The Paradise collection from In the Beginning Fabrics takes you through a jungle of bright colours with a retro feel.

We have three fabrics in this collection; a herringbone tile in grey, a sharp explosion in burnt orange, and swirling green vines on black. They are stunning to look at, but what will you do with them? As always the possibilities are endless; with so much going on in the range you will make quick work of colour matching them to other fabrics in your stash, from there your next project won’t be far away.

You could make Henrietta’s Hobo Bag. It requires 3 different fabrics so the whole Paradise collection can be showcased in your new bag. Imagine this bag in those lovely cheerful fabrics!!
