Alexander Henry's WILLOW GROVE ~ Quilt Feature!

It's no secret....I love Alexander Henry Fabric! One of my favorites is Willow Grove in the red, pink, and orange colorstory. It has such flair. I was thrilled to see photos of a quilt made with many of the Willow Grove coordinates....Helen from Australia sent me these pictures of her A.M.A.Z.I.N.G. quilt:

Look how the colors POP!

and here is the back:

Helen made this quilt for her young daughter....I think she is one lucky girl!


If you'd like to have a bit of Willow Grove for your own stash, here is the main print:

CLICK HERE to see WILLOW GROVE!

A little story:   This print had been out of stock for quite awhile and we had heard it wasn't coming back....in fact, I called Alexander Henry and was told this design wasn't being sent back for re-print.     Disappointed, yes...but I knew more fab prints would be coming so I pretty much forgot all about those outstanding bolts on my order from August 2010.     Sooo....what a great surprise to have 2 more bolts of Willow Grove land on our doorstep about a month ago! That's some good luck for our customers....now ya'll can have Willow Grove in your stash if you missed it the first time! We also have a few of the coordinates, they are on the Alexander Henry page.

Thanks, Helen, for sharing your beautiful quilt with us! Keep up the great work!

They're Coming Back.......!!!!! The Ghastlies Are Coming Back!

Yes, they are....would you like to know when these little creepers will be arriving???  Due date for this hot line of fabric by Alexander Henry, that sold out super fast last year is June 2011. Look for this line available for pre-order under Alexander Henry in our shop. Be sure to check back, as we add some of the new designs for The Ghastlies for 2011.

Interesting fact about our "coming soon" section is we offer presales of all the newest and latest fabrics  before they ever arrive. You are able to reserve what you would like to have and not worry about it selling out before you can get what you want after it arrives. Your fabrics will be ready to be packaged and sent as soon as they hit our doors. And as always, you are never charged until after your super cute or super creepy fabrics ship.

I'd love to show you an amazing creative quilt made by Thimbleanna.  She graciously agreed to let us showcase her delightful quilts and wonderful craftsmanship. She not only made one of these quilts, she made three and gave them as gifts. What a delightful and creative quilts.

These Wonky log cabin blocks featuring the Ghastlies really pop against the solid gray fabric used for sashing the blocks.

All of a sudden, these creepy characters don't look so scary after all.....simply adorable.

I really wonder what this group of witches are brewing....the one on the left looks as if she is the "lookout" for the group.

And this little Hammer Girl is drawing a fine line between super cute and well.....lets just say a little extraordinary. The fun mix of fabrics make these blocks so cute and fun.

This is the back of the quilt. The main print was used as the backing and black bands of fabric as sashing. This really looks like these creepers are looking right at you from jail. Thimbleanna, this is an amazing quilt, we love the design and your creative touches. Thank you so much for letting us showcase your beautiful quilt.

The Ghastlies by Alexander Henry are sure to be a hit again this year and we are super excited to be carrying this line. The exciting news is there are some new prints being added to this collection for 2011. So, if you were lucky enough to get your hands on some of this fabric last year, you'll be glad to know there will be new designs to add to your Ghastlies stash this year!
