Basic Mixologie

A new arrival this month at The Quilt Department is the Basic Mixologie fabric collection
by the Moda in-house design team simply known as Studio M.


This contemporary fabric collection includes 38 bolts of geometric graphic elements
and is softened by an organic floral pattern in various colorways.



Colors are bold without being overwhelming with the addition of a neutral gray to round it all out.




Well done team Moda.

Have a wonderful day!

The Frivols are coming, the Frivols are coming!

What the heck are Frivols you say? Well let me tell you. It is another absolutely adorable product from the super creative minds at Moda.

Look how cute they are stacked in a neat pile!

Each month a new collectible tin will be introduced. Here is a peak at the first 2 beauties:
Frivols Tin No. 1
Frivols No. 1 includes the Kindred quilt pattern

Frivols No. 2
Frivols No. 2 includes the Faithful quilt pattern
The first four tins will contain a new, exclusive precut to the Frivols collection, it is a 7" square.

Also included in each Frivols tin will be a bonus designer block card. These bonus block cards can be collected from each of the first 12 Frivols tins to create yet another quilt, a sampler quilt. Note: Fabrics for the sampler quilt will not be included in the tins. This is where your creativity will come into play.

Be on the watch out, the first Frivols tin is set to roll out in August. I can't wait!

Enjoy your day,

Leslie

Ambleside and some Peas, yes please!

The Ambleside fabric collection has been out for a few months but I just finished hand quilting this comfy little lap quilt and wanted to share. The quilt design is from Kim Diehl’s Simple Comforts book called Peas in a Pod. 


Hey, how did he get in there! 
That's Teddy, one of my Yorkie's.

I pumped it up with a bright red backing. How fun is that!

Finished with a red backing fabric.

The fabrics are by Brenda Riddle for Moda Fabrics. I just love the mix of pretty floral contrasted with the geometric prints in this collection. And the colors are just scrumptious.

Enjoy your day!
