Fall Quilt Market 2009: Robert Kaufman (With Giveaways!)
Robert Kaufman‘s hottie marketing department (Kyle, Emmie, and Ally) showed me nearly the entire year’s worth of upcoming releases. Some of the most exciting things I saw were Josephine Kimberling‘s next line, scheduled for mid-late 2010; and Amy Schimler‘s On a Whim II (January 2010 release). Keep an eye on the designers’ blogs for the big unveilings!
Here are other lovelies that you can expect in the near future from RK. You’ll notice a lot of designers from the scrapbooking world, which seems to be a big trend lately.

Giveaway Time!
I have sample packs of three brand new Robert Kaufman collections up for grabs in this, our final Quilt Market giveaway. See the end of the post for details.
Guatemalan Flora by Priscilla Bianchi – seven 10″ squares
Charm pack of Darlene Zimmerman‘s not-yet-released Three Bears Collection (35 5″ squares) plus a large-scale panel print (not shown). Ms. Zimmerman is another designer/textile historian I’d love to meet someday …
Charm pack of the entire Chirp collection by Katie Hennagir (23 5″ squares). Katie is the manager/creative director of Bay Window Quilt Shop in Perham, Minnesota and this is her first collection, filled with birds, hearts, and retro coordinates. It comes in three colorways: boy, girl, and neutral. Like the Three Bears collection, Chirp also includes a large-scale panel print, but unlike Three Bears, this print is not included in the giveaway.
To enter this giveaway, just leave a comment on this post naming which of these sample packs you like the most. I’ll draw winners Wednesday, November 4, 2009, around 2pm Central U.S. time. Note the shorter-than-usual time frame! Please leave only one comment per person. Readers worldwide are welcome to enter.

Without a doubt, the Chirp collection. /swoon
Oh, to choose between fabrics!! I think I would have to say Chirp on this one! Too cute!
wow, just found this via ‘detail’. i think here in the uk we don’t hear of many lovely fabrics… but now i have your site, i can keep informed. the bianchi flora squares look really bold. they are my faves. xx
Oh my gosh – I’m already dreaming up things to make with the Chirp collection! Super cute!
Chirp looks awesome. I’m looking forward to the “On a Whim” fabrics in January.
These are all great! but I think I would like The Three Bears – Darlene Zimmerman’s other ’30s prints are such fun that I think these would be fun too!
I love that Three Bears collection!
I’d love to have The Three Bears pack! My first ever quilt was a 30′s print one, so those kinds of fabrics hold a special place in my heart!
Lovin’ the chirp collection.
The rich, bright colors of Guatemalan Flora scream “me!”

Hi, What great fabric! It’s hard to make a choice, but I think the most irresistable off them all for me is Chirp! Those birds are so cute. I hope I win. It would be a great birthday prize for me. My birthday is the 5th!
Oh for sure, the Guatemalan Floral. I love splashy prints and this fills the bill. And thanks for all the insight into Quilt Market for those of us who can’t go. Your pictures and descriptions make it seem as if we had shared the time together. Just us girls.

I love the Guatemala Flora. But the little birds are sweet too. I’ll have to find some of them somewhere.

All three collections are wonderful, but the birdies in the Chirp pack are fantastic. Wonder if either of my local shops will be getting some of this…
