I spent the last of my Christmas/birthday money a few days ago, and my lovely new fabrics from Hawthorne Threads came today! I love, love, LOVE Hawthorne Threads! They have amazing fabric, amazing prices, and amazing customer service! It's such a great shopping experience- there aren't any crowds :) And they get the WHOLE collection when they order fabric! My local shops usually only get bits and pieces.
I found some great oranges to add to my orange fabric stash! L-R: "Mendocino" by Heather Ross, "Hope Valley" by Denyse Schmidt, "Lotus" by Amy Butler and "Meadowsweet" by Sandi Henderson. I think I'm going to send these out for one of my bees- I send fabric in April for The Block Swap 2.
I also got some "Meadowsweet" fat quarters in the peach colorway. I'm thinking of making a flying geese quilt with these and some solid white.
And lastly I picked up some "Woodland Delight" by Paula Prass in the gray colorway. I don't know what I'm going to do with these yet. I just liked them :)
Now I'm just waiting for the new Joel Dewberry fabrics, "Modern Meadow", to get in over at Hawthorne Threads. They are AMAZING!! I really think I'm going to need all of the "Berry" and "Pond" colorways. And the oranges from the "Sunglow" colorway :)
It's terribly cold today, but the sun is shining for the first time in over a week! I have no reason to go outside, so I've been sitting in the sun working on some hand embroidery for the Hoop Up! Stitch and Send swap. I feel a bit like a cat! :)

ReplyDeleteWhy oh why did you have to show me that....those fabrics are amazing....colorful and just plain wonderful....I a drooling....
ReplyDeleteLooks like a great haul Jennie! I always wind up buying tons when I shop from them. Usually once a month. I love the fact that they have tiered pricing. The more you buy the lower the cost of the fabric. Yay charlie and lindsay!
ReplyDeleteWonderful fabrics! Love all those oranges!
ReplyDeleteI found my way over from Ryan's blog. I am a quilter, but have decided to learn to crochet this year. I love the cute squares from an earlier posting of yours. Hope to be able to make something even 1/2 as cute in the near future.
