SHOUTING!!! Hoffman Indah Modern

I'm sorry

but I may just keep going on about these fabrics, and then when I get them in the shop just cuddle them.

I am in love

With a fabric collection

Why - because I will be excited not just to make a couple of quilts but pieces of clothing!!!!

There are 24 in this release

I am splitting them into 4 collections of 6 (the 4 elements)

Earth, Water, Fire & Air

Earth

Water

Fire

Air

These are not Batiks as you know them, they are modern batiks.

Hand Dyed.

Designed by Me+You for the Indah collection

the collection already had solids and a stitch and dot fabric

I may have to go back and collect those too….. as having trouble tracking down sellers in the UK, 

or rather NO online sellers in the UK!

 I don't think they have a name yet,

If you can think of better names or know the names let me know
but my names are;

Arrow head

Rain dance

Star Flower

Due out in USA I think January and here in February

so I will spilt the lot into February delivery for earth & water,

March delivery for Fire and air set.

Liberty Like Classics

I like most of you love liberty fabrics.

I'm thinking most of us have a small stash amongst the others!

Problem I always had and I guess, the same for most is the cost when sewing something big!

When you are looking at a minimum of £5 per fat quarter for the cheapest I have seen but averages £5.60 - £6.00.

So sewing a king size quilt - Liberty Style is going to cost a fortune!!

Getting the Blues

I have been checking different makes and classics not necessary the latest limited design out there, as want to be able, like the liberty fabrics supply them as all rounder long term classics.

Pink Flush

But as well as using them for large patchwork, even floaty floral dresses, think about classic garden setting table cloth, napkins accents against white, curtains, bunting & blinds - the list is endless.

Rosey Red

So for me now I can sew that king size classic quilt throw I always wanted with scalloped edges!!

Heavily quilted.

So these fabrics I have put together are smooth 100% cotton poplin.

which will be priced at £1.50 fat Quarter or £6.00 a metre

And I will do mini sample packs as well, to check them out.
