Orchard House by Windham... Beautiful Fabric

This absolutely gorgeous 38 bolt fabric collection arrived at the shop today... From Windham Fabrics designed by Jeanne Horton, I absolutely love Orchard House!

From the Windham web site: "Orchard House" is home to the writer Louisa May Alcott who wrote the beloved novel "Little Women" in 1868. Jeanne Horton always admired the Alcott / March family women and their story. The Orchard House collection was the perfect opportunity to create a line of fabric honoring these independent minded women. The fabric selections are all taken from textiles collected and dating back to this time period. Orchard House presents pattern designs that quilters admire and that blend well with other fabrics that Jeanne has created in the past. Her love of this period of time shows through in this collection and honors the characters and seasons at Orchard House."

$10.99 per yard... See YOU at the shop ;-)
Here is one of the 38 beautiful fabrics that comprise the collection Orchard House by Windham...

Chateau Rouge...

The NEW fabric collection ‘Chateau Rouge’ designed by French General for Moda has arrived at the shop!!! We received the twenty bolt assortment of this fabulous fabric line (Pictured is a sampling of the collection)… It’s available NOW at the shop and we will have it available on our shopping web site http://www.fqqs.biz/  soon :) 

“The Chateau Rouge collection was inspired by an old brick chateau we stayed in one summer in a small town, just north of Aix-en-Provence, called St. Remy. The chateau was built in 1789 and throughout the house were armoires that were brimming with old French textiles. I spent days looking through each of the 
armoires and sketching ideas and color combinations. Outside each window was a field of sunflowers - their brightness seemed to light up the house. The subtle mustard yellows mixed with the old reds - reminds me of the colors at the chateau and my summer in France.”
Kaari Meng, designer of French General fabrics for Moda
