Customer Inspiration

One of my customers came in recently with her completed Flower Garden quilt.  She is the lady who inspired me to start the Kim McLean Flower Pots quilt that I showed you a photo of recently.  The background is a very soft grey linen which looks stunning as a backdrop to the Kaffe Fasset fabrics.  Not a great photo, I didn't have room to lay it out flat it is very big.

Out with the old .........

A few years ago I made an ironing board cover from Kaffe Fasset fabric and it sits in the shop and gets well used.  So much so that part of it had worn through unfortunately, so I have just made up a new one in the same design but using Liberty prints.  Love it.  Kits for both are still available.


Eclectic Elements

These new fabrics have also just arrived, funny how they all show up together.  Anyway, my original plan was to make up a simple quilt top and get Peter to upholster an old chair with it.  There is a link from the Jim Holtz blog with a great photo of a few ideas http://timholtz.com/eclectic-elements-fabric-is-here/ 

Will load them on the web soon and will have bundles available.

Tilda Lovers take note

We have just received an order of twenty new Tilda fabrics and they look so gorgeous sitting on the shelf I thought you might like to look too.  They are all loaded on the website if you want to have a look at them individually here is the link:  http://www.honeysucklepatchwork.com.au/index.php?act=viewCat&catId=152

So now of course I am thinking, thinking, what will I make with them...  Any suggestions?
