Fabrics. YES!!
The list below is just what l saw and appealed to me. All these fabrics are coming soon, or later this year. Some may already be available.
Some l have pictures of, others you will need to check out the links.
Have a look on Blue Hills Fabrics. There are a few new lines l like lots.
Pomegranate, Cotton Crazy and Ohio Star.
All based on antique quilts from the Rocky Mountain Museum.
Some l like more than others. New Colonies is my fav.
Newcastle. Pam Weeks - Prussian Blue , Civil War Album 2,
Margo Krager - Divers 1863, Little Pink Stars.
Anna Barnes - Civil War miniatures.
Metropolitan Fair - 1862 battle Hymn - both by Barbara Brackman
BOOKS.
Civil War Legacies by Carol Hopkins.
These are repeats of past patterns, so if you have her patterns,
you probably don't need this book. But its nice to have them all together.
Small Pieces, Spectacular Quilts. A MUST!!
this book also has some antique quilt pictures.
l went to their school house and it was great, They had the antique quilts there.
Of course the Quilted Crows book. That goes without saying.
These 3 books are in my collection now.
Well, heading to Sorrento for some much needed sewing time,
and a chance to get re-acquainted with my machine after 6 weeks.
Will be back next week with more from Quilt market.
Of course, l have saved the best till last!!
Thanks for visiting.

My head is spinning from looking at all those amazing fabrics. I LOVE the pomegranate collection. And the book by Biz Storm looks like one that needs to live on my shelf. Have a great time sewing, you have lots of inspiration to keep you going for a while. Can't wait to "see the best"
