HUGE NEWS! If you follow me on Instagram, where I gush all the time about the cool stuff happening in my studio, At Robert Kaufman and C&T Publishing, you know by now I am in the final stages of my book, OMBRÉ QUILTS and have printed designer samples of SKY COLLECTION (see all 30 here) which I used to make every quilt (and then some!) for the book. The perfect storm of getting fabric and book to market AT THE SAME TIME was a robust undertaking, one that took the whole team at both C&T and RKC, plus some super talented sewists to help me get it done and for that I am grateful. I’m thrilled and you all get to benefit too!

Here are the hard fast details and NEED TO KNOW:
Book & Fabric shipping to QUILTERS Worldwide OCT 2019. Sharpen your blades and rev up your machines!

These gorgeous pastels are what I used (Thanks to my dear friend and pastel teacher, Amanda Houston) to create the SKY design which is a celebration of all the glorious skies we witness overhead, 30 pieces to commemorate my 30 years of being a professional textile designer, and they are digitally printed which gives us limitless color options and a more green/sustainable approach to printed fabric which makes me very happy.

OMBRE QUILTS book highlights 6 gorgeous projects, talks about what is an ombre, which ones to buy, how to use them, cut them, and why you’ll fall in love with these versatile prints (if you already haven’t) so not only is it a HOW TO book, but also a process book as I discuss color, value, placement and design. You’ll learn a lot. I will show you all the projects in a later post and talks in more detail. For now, know that above is what the cover looks like!

Can you tell how happy I am?? I love all colors, I love all moods and textures of fabrics. It’s been a while since I have done this kind of intense color and it feels so good to be immersed and to get such “never before possible” colors digitally printed on one yard of fabric. You have to see it to believe it. It’s so yummy. More to come later. Please comment below if you have any questions, observations etc....These Ombres styles are trending up now and it’s time we dig in and have some more fun. Until next time, Keep creating, it does your soul good

I’m absolutely in love with this group of fabrics and can hardly wait to get my hands on it! I have a project in mind that would work beautifully and I’m also excited to see your book and all of the projects😊

Looking forward to your new fabric line and all those lovely colorways. I also love your bracelets - knotted? Embroidered? Did you make those too or can you share who did? They're beautiful.

Can't wait to make these quilts, but can't find the fabric to buy. Getting very frustrated. Please help.

Hi
Do you sell these beautiful fabrics in the UK? Thank you.

It’s so hard to buy your fabrics in the U.K. :( and so expensive to order from USA.
Is there somewhere in the U.K. that stocks all of your fabric ranges?

It’s very frustrating......I’m wondering if anyone else has ever asked you this :) and how other people overcome this in England.

Thanks Ali
