When Hubby and I returned from Quilt Market last weekend, this is what we found waiting on us. Yay! This stack of fabric makes me so happy I can hardly stand it. This is really a dream come true. And if you read my blog on a regular basis, you know how I feel about making dreams come true. This sweet stack of fabric has sat on my couch all week. Just sitting, all nice and neat. Folded all pretty. Just a tall stack of color, fun and happiness.

Alas, last night I finally decided to do something besides stare at it. I decided to pre-wash and start planning what I will make. I know I will make the free Farm Friends quilt I posted a few weeks ago. I am just about done with the embroidery panels so that should come together rather quickly. I also have an ambitious project planned for recovering the two little recliners we have for the boys. |

| Here are the four colorways of the hay bales print. Lemon yellow, pumpkin orange, primary blue and grass green. |
 |
| These are the cute little tossed animal prints. There are three colorways here. Barn red, pumpkin orange and sky blue. All the animals are hangin' around in this one; cow, pig, sheep, rooster and chicks. They are the 'Farm Friends'! |
 |
| And here are the three dot colorways. Sky blue, white, and barn red. |
 |
| Next up is the main print of the collection. This is the farm scene print. It is done in both an ocean blue and light green colorway. All of the characters are in this print along with the barn, tractor and apple tree. |
 |
| This final print is greatness! These dots are 4 inches around alternate between solid color and motif filled. I just love it. The colorways are sky blue, olive green and white. I think I will have the most fun using this print to create some new things for my boys. |
Farm Friends is now showing up in a fabric store near you and online. I set up a Flickr group so I can share my Farm Friends creations with you and you can show me all the fun stuff you create. I can't wait to see what all of you creative people come up with!
I was so excited when I finally saw it was for sale. I will be sure to share what we make. I am not a seamstress however, so don't expect much.
ReplyDeleteI love and must have this fabric! My little one year old is all about farming and his daddy is a farmer. I just love it! I'm your newest follower and I hope you'll follow me back!!
ReplyDeleteThis fabric is wonderful with such cheerful colors and patterns. I saw your post on Jolly Jabber. I'm so happy you are making some boyish prints. The market needs this. Thank you. I look forward to your future lines. In the meantime I will get some of this charming fabric.
