NEW FABRIC CORTEZ

 

Nothing showcases all that is summer better than Maywood Studio's Red, White and Bloom! Fire up the grill and get ready to celebrate summer Kimberbell® style! Polka dot watering cans filled with bouquets, sweet picnic goodies, and a night sky lit up with fireworks.

Red, White, & Bloom is packed with everything we love about Kimberbell® from the clever sayings in her graffiti prints, to the decorative flag project panel.

Also coordinating with the Red, White & Bloom fabric collection is this cute wall-hanging and matching bench pillow. These patterns/kits are available for sewing or machine embroidery.

Farmington is fully stock with all this fun as well.

HAPPY SUMMER!

Fruit Stand by Anne Tavoletti showcases the juiciest produce of the season in clear, crisp colors! These delightful prints lend themselves well to all sorts of kitchen ideas...think curtains, aprons, market totes and more! The small block panel is perfect for making pot holders, centers of quilt blocks or pockets on a tote! This collection works just as well to decorate your front porch as to use at a picnic.

 

 

Check out our samples! You definitely need these placemats and the table runner for your home!
