With all the holiday hubbub, this month's fabric and project were delayed, but we're squeaking in our post before the new year. It's still December for a few more hours!
This month's collection, Silkroad, is comprised of modern prints with an Asian flair. Art Gallery Fabrics describes the line as "Ancient Asian techniques of brushwork, ink making, and fiber knowledge are shared through the trading route that is Silkroad. Black, white, and red impactfully define the elegant florals and geometrics that will transport you to a world of delicate craftsmanship."
However you describe these fabrics, they're beautiful.
The colors and patterns in Silkroad are also very versatile. Art Gallery Fabric's image gallery helps us imagine, not only gorgeous quilts, but fun bags, stylish tops and dramatic home accessories. I would love to wear that top!
For our project we made a set of three petal pouches, with six of the fabrics from the collection. Aren't they cute?!
Petal Pouches are great for storing works in progress, organizing supplies, and even make a cute purse. They would also be the perfect way to wrap up a special gift. The pattern comes with instructions for all three sizes and is designed by Valori. You can purchase the pattern as a pdf download or sewing card.
You can find all the individual fabrics, and ten specially selected coordinating fabrics (pictured below), on our website.
What will you make?
Cheers,
Samantha
