Greetings!

Featured Designer ~ Stephanie Brandenburg!

Stephanie Brandenburg paints vibrant art, which is then transferred to fabric. Many of you were introduced to Stephanie's collections for Camelot Fabrics and Frond Designs.

Stephanie has now released her latest collection ~ Daydreamin' ~ in her new partnership with Northcott fabrics!

Isn't this Stunning!

I've Got a Notion!

I've Got A Notion, quilters and sewists alike are going to love this collection! This collection is ideal for any project from quilts to bags and everything in between. You will lose yourself in the focal print, in the multitude of vintage sewing notions in cheerful colors, while other prints focus on threads, scissors, measuring tapes, buttons and pins all printed on linen texture.
Sewing is My Happy Place!

Spools, buttons, fabric scissors and measuring tape assemble on fabric brushed with gray and black like charcoal on paper. A collection sure to add some volume to your next project!
