I thought I’d try something new – sharing the fabrics that I pick up to fill my stash. The intent isn’t to have you go buy them, but to tell you why I choose the fabrics I do. I love pre-cuts. Most of my art quilts are small so I don’t need large pieces of fabric. I tend to buy fat quarters or half yard cuts. If I love a fabric, I might buy a few yards to use in a bed or throw size quilt.

First up – Passport by 3 Sisters for Moda. I picked up a fat quarter bundle since there were so many good text and map prints that I could use as ‘skin’ on the girls and boys that are featured on my art quilts. Even the green and blue text prints might work too – green with envy or so cold she’s turning blue.

The ship fabrics are not likely to be in an art quilt, but who knows – they are pretty cool. They would definitely work in a boy themed kids quilt.

If case you want some yourself, I found my fat quarter bundle at Fat Quarter Shop.

I know I’ve been mentioning STITCHED 2015 a lot. I am so excited and I have to share. I do so hope you’ll join the fun. You can sign up today or after it starts on March 1st. It’s going be a great year of creativity and inspiration. I always get such great ideas when I see how others create. You can watch the video classes at your own pace, so there’s no pressure – only fun with STITCHED 2015.
