QuiltInk Challenge Jun24

Summer is coming, and for the June QuiltInk Challenge, I want to showcase a new fabric collection perfect for this season by Libs Elliott. You can’t miss it!

 

But before we dive in, let’s give a big congratulations to Pixie for being the winner of the May Challenge, which featured the Winged Garden Fabric collection by Alexandra Bordallo!

 

June marks the launch of the Birdie Fabric Collection by Libs Elliott, a pattern designer in QuiltInk and also a fabric designer for Andover Fabrics.

The Birdie collection takes inspiration from the vibrant and bold designs of that era. With its playful patterns and nostalgic feel, it encourages us to embrace our inner child and revel in the joy of creativity. It builds on some of Libs’ favourite colours from the Atomic collection and will bring a sense of warmth and authenticity to anything you sew. So let your imagination run wild, embrace the retro vibes, and let Birdie take you on a journey back in time. The possibilities are endless, and the memories you’ll create will be timeless.

Start planning your upcoming quilting projects with this incredible fabric collection as you participate in our monthly challenge!

QuiltInk Challenge Apr24

What a fun it’s been the Mar24 QuiltInk Challenge with a palette set up by Binded with Love Fabric Shop in QuiltInk, and 120 incredible mock-ups published in the QuiltInk Wall.  Let’s give a big congratulations to prettification for being the winner of this month!
For the April QuiltInk Challenge, I want to introduce you to a palette source of inspiration that I love and find incredibly useful for selecting your quilt color choices. It’s Colours Cafe, an Instagram account where Giga, a super creative individual, posts a different 5-color palette almost daily, and I must say, I love nearly them all!
For the April palette, I’ve decided to blend two palettes from Colour Cafe because I felt that five colors might not suffice for most of the quilts featured on QuiltInk, and to provide you with a little more flexibility. Therefore, I’ve combined palettes 1062 and 1068 from Colours Cafe to create the Spring palette for the #QuiltInkChallengeApr24. I hope you like it! It’s composed of the following Kona Cotton solids from the Kona Cottons palette in QuiltInk: Cernise, Valentine, Candy Pink, Natural, Acid Lime, Chartreuse, Clover, and Nightfall.”
