Fall Quilt Market 2011: Alexander Henry – Love, Luck, and Liberty

Alexander Henry will addresses some fabrically-underserved holidays in Spring 2012 with Love, Luck, and Liberty — Valentine’s Day, St. Patrick’s Day, and 4th of July, respectively. What does it say about me that the gray Valentine’s print below reminds me of Rear Window? And that wraps up the AH offerings for Fall and Spring 2012. Which [...]

Fall Quilt Market 2011: Michael Miller – Holiday 2012

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:

Fall Quilt Market 2011: Robert Kaufman – Holiday 2012

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 [...]

Fall Quilt Market 2010 – Robert Kaufman – Christmas 2011

… starring The Grinch! Robert Kaufman‘s Dr. Seuss collections this year were extremely popular, and the next group of prints will be a Christmas collection centering on The Grinch Who Stole Christmas. Who can resist Cindy Lou Who? This collection will include a panel print, a big (I think) border print (I’m seeing tree skirts). [...]

Fall Quilt Market 2010: Alexander Henry – Holidays 2011

It’ll be hard for Alexander Henry to beat their 2010 Halloween collection The Ghastlies, but next year’s collections are pretty fly. 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 [...]

Holiday Fabric Roundup and Show Us Your Stash Collide!

This dreamy Christmas color story is from Brooke, whose new blog Inchmark should be on your must-read list. When I asked for permission to post she not only said yes but offered to ID the fabrics for us! So this is a value-added post. All fabrics are from Purl Patchwork; not all are currently available. [...]

Holiday Fabrics Roundup, Part 1

Alexander Henry, Snowyville and Checking It Twice collections. I’m also liking this one, which I’ve only found at the Fat Quarter Shop — I don’t normally go for such things, but it’s got that Alexander Henry edge that gives it a wider appeal.
