Wild Blossoms from Robin Pickens

, ,

It must be Spring. We have received our Moda bluebonnet prints. This year they were designed by Robin Pickens in her new collection, Wild Blossoms. I guess there is more than one way to look at a bluebonnet. Know you will enjoy these great fabrics.

The focus print of the collection is
an ombre background running parallel
to the selvedge.

The overprint is full of bluebonnets,
flowers and bees. Not sure how to use it, but gotta
have it!

If you are a fan of pre-cuts, we have the charm squares and the 2 1/2″ strips from the Wild Blossoms collection.

If you are looking for bluebonnet fabrics, you might check out the ones we have continued to carry over the years.

Not sure what you want, but you must “need” some bluebonnet fabrics in your stash. We have bundled half yards and fat quarters into two collections of bluebonnet fabrics and coordinates. One group is on the lighter backgrounds and the other is on the darker and black backgrounds.

Longhorns from Quilting Treasures

This panel features the artwork of Kathleen McElwaine, a Texas watercolor artist. We love her style and are excited to offer this panel and the coordinates.

There are 14 different portraits of longhorns in each panel. Six of the portraits are approximately 10″ x 12″ and 8 are approximately 7″ x 7″.

It’s hard to see how great these pieces are so we have included a few close ups below.

Here are just three of the images on the panel. Aren’t they great!
