New Kristen Doran Fabric

We've just uploaded some great new Kristen Doran prints to the store! The top two red on white are on light weight cotton and the bottom two are on medium weight cotton. The gorgeous owls are perfect for kids clothing and bedroom accessories. Use the lily pad print to whip up an original cushion or tote bag, or get in early for summer and sew a skirt or top.

Amy Butler - Nigella

"Nigella"...as in the fabric collection, not as in "let me show you my aromatics"! Ordered and due in 3 or 4 weeks...a selection of Amy Butler's Nigella collection. Some of the Petal colourways are shown above. We also have some of the other colourways ordered and they're due to arrive August/September.

The fabric is extra wide (150cm) soft, medium weight cotton. A good all-rounder, it is suitable for home decorating but also soft enough for craft, quilting and clothing.
