Great Stuff for Quilters and Sewing Enthusiasts
Almost weekly, we highlight some of the newest arrivals in the store via our email newsletter E-Happenings and we summarize the products covered in a matching blog post. The following listing shows many of those newsletter highlights in reverse chronological order. Note: because our fabric inventory changes regularly, we take down some of the listings periodically to sure that we don’t display out-of-date information for products that are no longer available.

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 Jewelery Design in 2012.
Her work is bold and colorfu. It is characterised by the 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.
Her previous line, Alfie, was a big hit and we think everyone will love finding the birds.
There are just 5 pieces, and each one stands alone. This is some of the “want it and think what to do with it later” fabric.
