Favorite Things Fabric Instagram Tour
When I design a fabric line, I have plans for it. Some of prints will go great in this pattern, other prints for another and sometimes a BOM (like Graphic Jam) for all of the prints! But, where the real fun begins is seeing what others make with the fabrics. Everyone interprets colors and prints differently and it is so much fun to see how the fabric takes different shapes and turns into things I never imagined!
So, here we are launching my third fabric line, Favorite Things, into the world and I can think of no better way than asking some of my favorite designers and makers to participate in a little tour! Come join us over on Instagram for endless inspiration and 7 opportunities to win a fat-quarter bundle of Favorite Things.

Elise’s EPP is so gorgeous it almost makes me want to give it a try! But for now I will just marvel at her impeccable stitching.

Each one of Sarah’s quilted postcards is more jaw-dropping than the last! In addition to the 100s of postcards, she makes the most beautiful modern quilts.
