Shelley's Snippets
Hello!
We have some exciting new fabric collections arriving this month...
 
Buzzing Around the Garden from 3 Wishes.
Panel and coordinates
By Sharon Lee
After graduating from Syracuse University with a degree in Fine Arts, Sharon Lee began her journey working in New York city as a textile designer. From there, she went to a bedding manufacturer where she designed quilts, comforters and fabrics. Most recently, she has been working as a licensed and freelance designer. Her artwork has been sold for a variety of products from bedding, to tabletop, giftwrap, stationery and stickers. Inspired by nature, summers at the beach at the Jersey Shore and browsing through antique stores and vintage fabrics.
 
We will be offering this free pattern that goes with the collection.
From Henry Glass
Norweigian Forest
Panel and Coordinates
Step out into a calming Norwegian forest with this collection by Mary Jane Carey. Stunning butterflies flutter by as bunnies hop through flowering fields. Take a deep breath of the fresh air as you wander through this woodland scene. Forage for mushrooms and pick some flowers for a vase. The serenity of the forest will have your mind clear and ready to take on a new project using Norwegian Forest
 
We have some books that have patterns designed for Panels.
More fabric...
From Free Spirit
Jane Sassaman "Vegetable Patch"
As an art quilter, Jane’s designs are always recognizable for their bold color and graphic style. Today she is translating her unique vision into exuberant fabrics for FreeSpirit. Like her quilts, Jane's fabrics are nature-inspired, large scaled and colorfully enthusiastic. They have been lovingly referred to as "William Morris on anti-depressants".
 
Love her colors! 
We will have the whole line! These are a few of my favorites.  Can't wait to sew up some placemats and table runners.  Not to mention a "Tourist Tote" for your favorite gardener.
Also from Free Spirit...
"Colori"
 Esté is a South Africa born professional artist and designer based in England. She originally studied textile and fine art printmaking degrees followed by an MA in Jewellery Design in 2012. Her work is bold and colourful and characterised by use of stylised forms and painted layers. Esté draws inspiration from nature, seasons, travel, daily observations and her vivid imagination. All of her creations start off as paintings on canvas. Esté’s work leans Itself to be used on all kinds of applications from stationery, packaging to wallpaper and homeware.
