Brenda's pieces

Brenda makes what she wants to make.

She collects fabrics she likes and combines them with beautiful coloured threads (she especially likes the Signature variegated threads).

This quilt weighs quite a lot - it is heavily embellished with decorative machine stitching.
















Thanks for showing us your work Brenda - we are all inspired.

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.



And I don't need to say what great borders they would make do I???



Now on sale for $19 per metre.


Get in fast - they are walking out the door - and why wouldn't they?

Pretty Penelope quilt kit

Lorraine loved these Lakehouse fabrics so much, it was easy to design a quilt to showcase the stunning prints.



Featuring metallic "champagne" (it's not quite silver, not quite gold) on the black rose blocks, and border print and also with French-inspired prints, this quilt will last a lifetime!




Make Pretty Penelope for a 12 year old, and she will love it until she is 112.



Timeless, dateless fabrics.



Designed for a single bed or to go across a queen bed under the pillows.





Stocks are strictly limited. $118 plus postage.

Betty's show and tell

Betty made this quilt for a wedding present. "I hope they like it" she said.



Of course they will like it Betty! You made it for them, and it's infused with love. You wouldn't give a quilt gift to someone that wouldn't appreciate it. I know.

We love to see your show and tell - it's wonderful to see the fabrics transform from the shelves into draping quilts. Ah, I think I need to go and sew. :)

Sharyn's quilt

Sharyn whips up quilts like she is in a frenzy! I wonder how many she had made!!





Those are her feet sticking out at the bottom of the quilt. :)


This is made using the techniques Sharyn learnt in our 12 fat quarter quilt class.


See our class list for more details. Thank you for show and tell!!

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?
