Look at all the colors and texture in this corn!  Aside from adding interest to any block, this Dutchess Country fabric would look great in a landscape quilt, or as a border.  It would also make a unique binding. 

 The scattered wheat in gentle curves adds motion to Harvest Home, a tone on tone gold that would pair nicely with the corn fabric.

Add Mixmaster Scribbles Red for the pop! There’s so much to like about this fabric… the waves of intensity, the squiggly lines and the warm color.

Another red, this one is a little deeper, Mixmasters Dot to Dot Cranberry has more subtle variations in color.

Adding a deep brown seems called for and Jo Morton’s Cocoa Express works.  The tan and red lines that create the diamond shapes remove the boredom of a solid brown, but still allow the fabric to be “read” as brown.

Finally, to brighten things up, Yellow Classic Yellow.  A tone on tone, there are little “v”s of red…. just a smattering.  It kind of reminds me of chicks and their beaks. 

What do you think of this color pallette?  What would you pair with the corn fabric?

Sunny Daisies on an orange background in American Jane Snippets clearly says ”Summer”.

Splish Splash Spots Orange is a double dose of happy… polka dots and orange all in the same fabric.

 Surf ‘N Safari is a bright, bold, must-be-noticed orange!  The background undulates from the lightest shade to a deep orange with an overlay of splatters in even darker orange.

 Happy yellow swirls are paired with small blue dots on an orange background in Play Date.  It’s  a litte heavy on the yellow, but  this one . . . .

 
 . . . . with yellow in the form of smallish stars on the same background (also in the Play Date line) gives a hint of yellow, and lets the orange take center stage.

Garden Party orange is very soft and underplayed.  It could be used in a project and wouldn’t shout orange, but a warm feeling would still result.

Getting back to my goldfish, I think Splash Papaya might be just right. It will really pop against the background of many different blues. 

Do you have any orange quilt fabric in your stash?

Modern Muddle Green from Print Concepts has a 70′s look and yet it looks totally modern.  The white stripes bring even more energy to the look.  

Add these Modern Muddle coordinating fabrics for a quilt that will liven up any space: college dorm room, family room, teen’s room. 

I love the white ribbon that winds around in little curlicues in the Riverwoods Collection.  This dotty fabric is available in four different colors: blue, red, cream, and green.    If you are tired of the same old shades of red and green for Christmas projects, these fabrics are a great alternative.  For coordinating fabrics there is a cream with snowflakes and a fun blue plaid.

Are you looking for bright and bold?Bright, colorful, friendly dinasours are scattered across an equally colorful background of different sized dots.  Though they are from different fabric lines, this One Bizillion BC goes nicely with the Pound Hound dotty fabrics.

Dr Suess fabric is another popular choice for baby quilts.  I even know a few adults that would love a quilt from this Cat In The Hat Collection. It’s true, I do. By hook or by crook, they would love to have a quilt. With a book, or a nook, they would snuggle with a quilt. 

Do you have a wanna-be cowboy in your life?  Or perhaps a real cowboy?  The Buckaroo Fabric Collection has 7 half yard cuts of fabric by ADORNit. 

Check out the rest of the collections and come back often because we’ll be adding more Fabric Collections!

Tulip Tonals Salmon

and Tulip Tonals Sky by Kona Cotton are soft, rich looking, tone on tone fabrics.  Beautiful colors with romantic tulips scattered about.

Fusions Spring by Robert Kaufman Fabrics is a multi colored background with white flowers.  This makes a great border fabric.  I’ve used it around the Periwinkle Lane blocks and it looks so pretty with them.

This is Maisy Green Flowers by Andover Fabrics.  There is a whole line of Maisy Fabrics and they are bright, colorful and fun.

Empress Bouquest Spring by Robert Kaufman is an explosion of spring flowers, bursting forth from the brown “dirt”.  They look like they just can’t contain their enthusiasm for spring!

Garden Party by Troy has a blue background with buds and flowers scattered all about.  This whimsical print also comes in a lilac background.

Sage Wildflower by Timeless Treasures has a light green marbled background and is bordered by basket weave stripes.  The flowers and leaves are delicately illustrated and are being visited by butterflies.

Most of these patterns would make great gifts either all sewn up and made for your non-crafty family and friends or the patterns themselves for any quilters you know.   Of course even quilters would love to recieve a project already finished – and they will truly appreciate the work and love that went into the making.

Any patterns that you really like, but know that you won’t have time to make before Christmas, you can add to your wish list. Maybe you’ll find them under the tree come Christmas morning.  Then while the rest of the family is dozing after all the festivities, or playing with their new “toys” you can “play” with your new patterns.   Or add a quilt jigsaw puzzle to your wish list.  That’s something you can enjoy with family and still get your “quilting fix”!
