STONEHENGE HOLIDAY

 Here it is ... one of the prettiest Christmas collections of fabric I've ever seen. You may be familiear with the Stonehenge line of fabrics from Northcott. It is a stale in their fabrics and they are the most versatile luscious texture laden fabrics I've seen in a long time. Definitely good stuff t have in your stash for just about any quilt project you could think of working on. Lots of colors even across a single piece of yardage. And then when they start playing with the add-ons o the basic line you end up with a pallette of fabric that allows you to paint across your design wall in ways you've never imagined. So you can see why I was so excited to get this box of yardage in the mail from Northcott the other day. These weekend definitely has playtime set aside because look what else was in the box!



I have some definite ideas about how to use the collection to set off these beautiful panels and can hardly wait to get started with the cutting and piecing of the border blocks. Most people are thinking about or even getting started on their Spring gardening this weekend. Not the case here in the Northeast. If it is going to look like Christmas outside on the first of April then I think I'll just go with the flow and work on Christmas!

... know your craft ... practice your craft ...
... be innovative with your craft ...
