Annie at the Village Haberdashery has had the most special of deliveries with her new son arriving last Friday. Huge congrats to her and her family! I couldn't resist choosing baby suitable fabrics bundles in her shop for this month's post. All would make wonderful baby quilts, burp cloths and tiny booties to welcome a new baby!
A bright and vibrant selections of Monaluna's retro Cunban inspired 'Hava', in a' Boy' bundle. You will find a 'Girl' bundle here.
Sarah Watson's gorgeous new Indian Summer (Art Gallery)- imagine the silky feel of this collection in a baby quilt,
Everybody knows a 'cool' family- designers maybe? Trend setters? Fashionistas? WHat better than Comma! Great colours and graphic prints, perfect.
I couldn't resist a bit of forest cuteness with Scamper.
A Liberty Stile bundle, all ready to make an heirloom quilt!
Simpatico by Michelle Engel Bencsko, in the sale too so a definite bargain. I have some of this and it is the most wonderful quality, fine, light and strong.
Cloud 9 Maman and Nursery basics- a mix of sale and non sale and again amazing feel and quality. Many of these will mix with the other bundles, perfect with Simpatico (a Cloud 9 range) but I think these would work with Indian Summer too, the colours look like they would blend in beautifully.
Cot/crib sized batting can be found here. I used Quilter's Dream Cotton for the Baby Bear Paw quilt for the first time and I loved it.
A light low loft (thickness), lots of drape and very easy to machine through. I use spray basting for baby quilts and it worked a treat with this. I used warm and natural as my goto in the past but I will be buying Quilter's Dream instead. I found it really easy to handle when cutting out and layering the sandwich I am trying out a Quilter's Blend soon for a quilt that has waited a while for quilting, I might even try hand quilting which tends to be easier with a blend and I will report back. when I finally get round to it! Congrats again Annie xxx
