Millefiori by Sarah Fielke

WOW! Where has the time gone? We’ve been a little absent from the blog but have been busy in the background developing some exciting fabric ranges for Summer.

First cab off the rank – Sarah Fielke’s second quilting range for us:  Millefiori.

 

‘Millefiori’ means ‘thousands of flowers’ and this collection is inspired by traditional Italian glasswork of the same name.

 

 

Check in with Sarah Fielke on Fridays at www.facebook.com/Spotlightstores for her ‘Mystery Quilt’ program. Quilt along with us over 12 weeks, launching 4th October 2013.

Learn new quilting techniques and a create a finished quilt.

Introducing: Belle & Boo

Think of this post as similar to the final scenes of "The Breakfast Club" - Brian pumping his fist in the air to the strains of Simple Minds' "Don't You Forget About Me".

That's me, pumping my fist in the air, because we're back! It's been a long an unexpected hiatus but we're sincerely hoping that you didnt forget about me (us)!

Okat that was messy but I can't get the song out of my head.

 We're very excited to be welcoming British lifestyle brand Belle & Boo to our shores! Belle & Boo was created by illustrator Mandy Sutcliffe and celebrates innocence, warmth and adventure through gorgeous, nostalgic storybook illustrations. Featuring Belle and her rabbit Boo, as well as a cast of their freinds, the brand has expanded to include clothing, books, homewares and stationary.

Cute kids aprons we made with some Belle & Boo fabric!

We've collaborated with the brand to develop some fabric ranges exclusively for us, as well as offering popular existing Belle & Boo fabric designs. Check out a preview of the range below:
