Michael Miller handed over the Halloween reins to Mark Hordyszynski (study the spelling of his last name, it’ll be on the test!). Ask him about carrying that giant bone through airport security! And MM also has a gingerbread-house-themed Christmas collection for 2012, designed by Michael Miller Studio:
Here are Robert Kaufman‘s collections for Halloween and Christmas 2012. Industry-wide, Holiday collections usually come out around May, but these may be slated for earlier. Pink Light Design takes over the ongoing Eerie Alley Halloween line this time around. Nordica Flannel is a cozy collection with with traditional Scandinavian winter motifs. Makes me want [...]
{ Lizzy in camouflage against a backdrop of Outfoxed } Clearly people can’t get enough Lizzy House, since she had not-one-not-two-but-three collections showing at Quilt Market! I’m so excited for them all: Outfoxed, already in stores; her Halloween collection (those ghosts! The candy corn triangles!); and Hello Pilgrim, which might not be out till the [...]

The first one is called Hocus Pocus: Then we have “Pumpkin Patched”: And “Cackle Jacks”: Apparently AH’s Halloween collections tend to outsell their Christmas collections. But I don’t know, Holiday Hoot is so awesome [...]
Alexander Henry did it up for Halloween this year! It was all to help promote next year’s Halloween collection, The Ghastlies — hands down the best Halloween fabrics I’ve ever seen. It was all hand drawn by Phillip (the brother half of the sibling pair that runs the company) and will come in two colorways, [...]
Bloom and Grow by My Mind’s Eye (top) and detail of coordinates (bottom) Riley Blake stormed onto the scene earlier this year and became an instant hit. I got to meet owner Cindy Cloward, who showed me all their new offerings. Many of their designers have roots in the scrapbooking and paper crafts industries. My [...]
Happy Halloween, folks! I’ll be back next week with more Quilt Market reports — I haven’t even touched Westminster/Freespirit yet, and I’ve also got a post about the process of buying fabrics at Market with Diane of Bee Square Fabrics. Above is a tiny peek at next year‘s Halloween fabrics from Alexander Henry. Below, Trick [...]
