inspired Sunday Stash

17 April 2016

This week I realised I have very little text fabric and even less that's neutral in colour. I got these lovely prints and another cone of Aurifil #2021 from Fluffy Sheep Quilting. I haven't finished my current cone quite yet but it's nice to have back up ready and waiting.


Newsprint, Modern Background Paper by Zen Chic and The End Slate, Reel Time by Zen Chic.

I really wanted that Newsprint fabric after seeing how Kim Niedzwiecki @gogokim used Modern Background Paper in this beautiful block on her instagram:


All the prints in the collection are gorgeous but I really wanted the text one! You can get Modern Background Paper here.


There are some beautiful Stitchy Pie needle cases being made...

I love this fabric and the gorgeous thread colours in this picture by @pinitandstitch:


Two beautiful versions, including some pretty embroidery by Caroline @lalinsocal:


And Hadley @mrsflyingblind made this gorgeous one with Priory Square and a brilliant dotty binding:

It is so exciting to see people using my pattern and I am so grateful for all the incredibly positive feedback ♡

The older kids are back at school tomorrow so I'm about to relax with some epp before another busy week!

Modern Background - Paper ~~ Green Fairy Quilts Giveaway!

27 August 2015
**GIVEAWAY NOW CLOSED** 

Let's have a little back to school giveaway! I feel like September is always a great time for planning and deciding what projects to work on for the upcoming months. I was one of those kids at school that loved having timetables and using highlighters, I covered all my exercise books and stationery is still one of my favourite things. 


The newly released Modern Background - Paper by Zen Chic for Moda is perfect for paper lovers and the low volume prints are gorgeous. All of the prints are versatile backgrounds and blenders. It's not often I see a range where I know I can easily separate prints to use in different projects. I think Zen Chic have done a fabulous job building a usable and beautiful collection.

There are some great subtle text and graphic prints, though I think these two bolder prints are my favourites:


And as if these aren't gorgeous enough, Zen Chic will also be releasing Modern Background - Ink in September and you can pre-order bundles and precuts from Green Fairy Quilts at great prices!
