Lotus fabrics in store

You'll want to sew this fabric from the Lotus range as soon as you take it home!!
This is the Lotus panel.

These co-ordinates are also available.

The fabrics feature striking colours, and convey depth and dimension.
So, what could you make? This is a sample whipped up overnight by Lorraine - featuring the Lotus panel surrounded by green borders, blossom borders and large peonies. A green binding will follow.

Please let us know if you would like a kit.

Miniatures 1860-1890

Warm reds, browns, pinks and creams combine in miniature-sized prints to complement all the "special" prints in your 1800s fabric stash that you couldn't resist buying, but you don't know what goes with them!!

(What a long sentence that was!!)

Presenting Miniatures 1860- 1890. Essential co-ordinates in small scale prints.

Also available in fat quarter and fat eighth packs.

I've made a few quilts in this colour range - Courthouse Steps, Tumbling Blocks and Log Cabin.

I think it might be time to try another one.... or maybe I'll just collect these prints - add them to my stash??

All on special at only $19 per metre, while stocks last.

Baltimore Album ca 1847 fabric

Do you love the look of Baltimore Album quilts, and want to create your own?Or perhaps you would like to use the "cheater" prints in this fabric range to create an authentic looking reproduction without hours of appliqueing??You could easily piece blocks then use the flower designs as borders or feature fabrics. (Can you tell the original quilt was photographed to provide the fabric design?? The "fake applique" is quite realistic.)The ombre fabrics in this range (those are the ones that vary from light to dark across the bolt) are seriously accurate reproductions. Especially, for the Prussian blue print - the original Prussian blue fabrics were not colourfast. They looked fantastic, until they were washed. The ancient dyeing techniques cannot be replicated for safety reasons, so we cannot duplicate the bright blue that they obtained in the 1840s. However, our blues are colourfast, and more modern techniques are developed each year. I believe we are reaping the benefits in this fabric range.
Also available in fat quarter packs.

Folk Art Village fabrics

Folk Art Village fabrics are now in store.

These prints would be perfect to separate rows of blocks in a strippy-quilt formation.

Tuxedo - a stunning range

Stunning, striking, modern, classic, unique..... Your next project will pack the punch when you use these Tuxedo prints by Colour Concept.

We have taken these images from the artists original artwork designs. The top image is a photo of the actual fabrics.

The Tuxedo fabrics are reduced to the low price of $19 per metre.
Also available in fat quarter and fat eighth packs.

I can't decide if this colour is an antique gold or limey green... perhaps it works as either colour.

I can't wait to cut up these prints. Won't you join me?

Aboriginal fabrics

We are pleased to announce that the first bolts of fabric in the Aboriginal artwork collection have arrived in store! Real paintings by authentic Aboriginal artists have been printed onto fabric in a variety of colourways.

Not all Aboriginal fabrics are orange and black - these prints (and many more) reflect the colours in the natural landscapes all over Australia (deserts, rocks, coasts, forests).

We love combining these fabrics with Kaffe Fasset prints as well as solid quilter's muslins.

Also available in fat quarter and fat eighth packs.

We will add to our in-store collection each month. By years end, we will have 50 different prints in stock!! Wow!!

Camelot by Jason Yenter

Oh yes, Jason Yenter. We are not worthy!!

(Well, of course we are!).

These fabrics are from the Camelot range.

These prints have depth, highlights and detail we have come to love from this fabric designer.

I can just imagine these fabrics and colours in castle wallhangings at Camelot.

Loads of batik fabrics in store

We love batik fabrics.

They can look soft, warm, bright, subtle.... but they always add depth and interest to your projects.

We keep a large range in store at all times (currently we have about 40 bolts in store) - these are not all on our website.

Generally, batiks are one-off fabrics (they are hand-produced) and can rarely be re-ordered.

Seeing a good batik fabric is like seeing a pair of shoes you like. You HAVE to buy it when you see it, it just won't be around when you are looking for it.

Enjoy your browsing. Click here to see our current range of batiks available online.

Or pop in to see more prints in store.
