Designed by Caroline Alfreds for 3 Wishes, this new quality fabric is a must for making beautiful quilts and home décor accessories. Featuring a whimsical patchwork of folk fabrics with flowers and butterflies in deep greens and vibrant pinks it is just perfect for patchwork and quilting, tops and t-shirts requiring some structure, accessories and home decor.
Plus you can download a FREE quilt pattern using this collection on the 3 Wishes website!
We have a wide selection of fabrics suitable for Military Remembrance projects. Whether you prefer poppies or planes, take a look at some of our collection.
We have a wide selection of cotton poppies material, ranging from wonderfully colourful to the more traditional red on black. These are great for making structured tops for remembrance services, or fussy cutting and layering to make individual poppies.
A Field of Memories by local designer The Crafty Lass can be viewed here
Plus we have a small amount left of Poppy Fields from the Craft Cotton Co. here
If you’re looking to make some themed items for the gentleman in your life, or perhaps would just like a striking bag or cushion, then these vintage planes from the Remembering collection from Nutex may be more to your taste.
The oranges of dawn and sunset are so eye-catching, and a wonderful way to honour anyone you love who is associated with the RAF, or who loves historic airplanes.
We love Bev Mayo’s handy cutting mat bag, and so do our customers! The log cabin design is easy to master with Bev’s helpful YouTube tutorials, and the padding ensures your cutting mat travels well and is protected. Why not get prepared for when both you and your craft supplies can hit the road again!
The bag will fit a 24” x 18” cutting mat with the actual size of the bag being 20” x 24” (51cm x 60cm). There is room to spare for your cutting ruler and other items so creating patchwork on the move is made a little easier, and you can easily store all your tools together. The log cabin pattern (and the rest of the bag) is made from four light tone and four dark tone fabrics. You can use your favourite colour scheme – purple and teal are very popular choices. This is also the perfect project to use up your scraps.
Here’s what you’ll need:
25cm of three light tone fabrics
1m of another light tone fabric
25cm of two dark toned fabrics
50cm of two more dark toned fabrics
2 pieces of calico (25″ x 21″)
2 pieces of wadding (25″ x 21″)
2 small pieces of wadding (2″ x 37″)
These are some of our collections that have been used to create this bag by our customers –
plus our range of Jospehine Wall fabrics would work look amazing 😀
Don’t forget to watch the three tutorial videos that accompany this pattern, especially if there are any techniques that you haven’t practised before. You can find all three below. Happy Crafting!
The weather here has been so dreary that we can’t help thinking of Noah’s Ark. Nutex’s Little Noah collection of fabric and patterns has been very popular over the last few weeks, so we can’t be the only ones! As the drizzle continues, we’ve decided to take 10% off the whole collection, and we’ve thrown in a few other animal themed goodies too.
There are some delightful quilt patterns from Kid’s Quilts designed especially for this fabric – also with 10% off.
Plus we’ve also taken 10% off Kerry Lord’s amazing Edward’s Menagerie. Crochet your own Noah’s Ark with 40 unique animal patterns.
And we’ve also discounted Stylecraft’s Wondersoft Merry Go Round. 100% premium self-striping acrylic available in both brights and pastels. Only £3.60 per 100g and just perfect for baby and toddler knitting patterns.

How about gathering up all those leftover landscapes and trying one of the free table runner patterns designed especially for this collection from the Elizabeth’s Studio extensive project gallery?

Purple Boots has been busy at her sewing machine this month making a gift for her cousin.
A quilt was requested in shades of grey to match their baby decor. Take a look at the quirky foxes and cuddly bunnies Purple Boots created using applique and the repeating theme of a cheeky bird popping up in each square. She has gone though her scrap box looking for coordinating fabric to make the scrappy borders.
All those tiny little morsels work really well against the plainer borders. Because the family want a play mat rather than an heirloom quilt, the quilt has been backed with our supersoft dove grey dimple fleece. A little bit of embroidery brings each if the animals to life. All ready for new arrival!
Check out our range of neutrals on our website. Purple Boots has effectively used a combination of greys and whites. Look especially for Lewis & Irene Bumbleberries, Nutex Moko, Michael Miller Marbles and Sevenberry Marbles, all of which can be seen somewhere in this quilt!
