Delivers to shops September 2011.
Amy Barickman of Indygo Junction and The Vintage Workshop has based her new fabric collection on the style and images from her popular book, Vintage Notions. Just as Amy wrote the book to reintroduce the wisdom and clever inspiration of Mary Brooks Pickens, these fabrics will serve to reacquaint sewers with the beautiful textiles of those days gone by. The 24" panel features four rectangular images of ladies involved with various stages of their sewing projects. Each one could easily be set into a quilt design or framed to hang on the wall of your sewing room! The panel is bordered with an assortment of labels to that can be used not only on the backs of quilt but to sew inside a bag or garment. Fuse them with a coordinating fabric to make gift labels to tie onto any hand-sewn item that you make. You can also incorporate these labels into a friendship quilt and have each participant sign their names. Period colors are used throughout this collection – gray, peach, turquoise, lettuce green, cream and black. Unleash your imagination with ideas for using this special, fabric collection! Create sewing totes and organizers, ironing board covers, curtains for a sewing room or to cover the fronts of open shelving in a sewing room, sewing baskets (braided or gathered), pincushions, aprons and more! 8 patterns/19 skus.
