Arts and Crafts Sampler Block of the Month

Starting April 2012, the Arts and Crafts Sampler Block of the Month offers you an opportunity to bring Australian designer Michele Hill's fabric collection, Morris Meadows, to your quilting table. Inspired by the work of legendary artist and textile designer William Morris, the  collection features gorgeous floral and border prints with rich tonals that accentuate the floral applique blocks in Michele's quilt designs. The collection is brought to us by In the Beginning Fabrics.

Whether you enjoy machine or hand applique techniques the Arts and Crafts Sampler is sure to become a family heirloom. What's more, if you or your family decorated your home with Morris's wallpaper or furnishings, this quilt will certainly add to your lovely collection. 


During this 10-month Block of the Month program, you will receive all the patterns and fabrics needed to complete the quilt top including binding. The finished quilt measures 60 1/2" x 72 1/2".

Black and White from Loralie & Pansies

We got a terrific assortment of black and white prints from Loralie Designs today. My favourites are the sewing themed prints ... there are sewing machines (that look like featherweights), scissors and Mannequins!

Also a stunning group of English Fabrics from Fabric Freedom UK. The first collection is a small one...but it is stunning: Pansy. There are also some gorgeous tone on tones and blenders, and a William Morris grouping. I'll scan and post more of them later!
