March has arrived, bringing with it a fresh QuiltInk Challenge that draws inspiration from the beauty of nature. This month, we’re excited to feature the Meadow Walk fabric collection by Alexandra Bordallo for Andover Fabrics. Inspired by the serenity of a stroll through a peaceful meadow, this collection showcases whimsical florals, delicate foliage, and playful motifs in a versatile palette of deep plums, warm mustards, soft pinks, and serene greens.
Before we delve into the details of this month’s challenge, let’s take a moment to celebrate the success of our February Challenge. With an impressive 181 entries, participants showcased their creativity using the Denim palette. We are thrilled to announce that AHaverinen is the winner of the February Challenge and will receive access to “Quilt Your Jeans – The Class (on-demand)” by Radha. Congratulations, AHaverinen, and thank you to everyone who participated!
Now, let’s explore how you can incorporate the Meadow Walk collection into your designs and participate in this month’s challenge for a chance to win exciting prizes.
Meadow Walk by Alexandra Bordallo is inspired by the simple pleasures of outdoor adventures with loved ones. Each print in the collection captures the essence of blooming fields, vibrant flowers, and the wonders of nature found along countryside strolls.
From delicate florals in soft pastel hues to intricate botanical motifs and geometric designs, each print invites you to create quilts that capture the essence of springtime tranquility, and infuse your projects with the magic of these cherished moments.
Let Meadow Walk be your gateway to creating quilts that celebrate the beauty and wonder of the great outdoors.
MEET ALEXANDRA BORDALLO
Meet Alexandra Bordallo, the talented designer behind the Meadow Walk palette for this month’s QuiltInk Challenge!
Hailing from Vic, near Barcelona, Alexandra is a passionate quilter, fabric designer for Andover Fabrics, and quilt pattern creator. Her quilting journey began with inspiration from her grandmother and grew through sewing blogs, magazines, and tutorials. Today, she blends traditional elements with a modern twist, often incorporating flying geese and geometric designs into her work.
For Alexandra, color is the heart of every quilt, and her love for greens, purples, and yellows—drawn from sunsets and summer meadows—shines through in her fabric collections. When she’s not designing, she’s connecting with the quilting community through her website and social media, sharing her creative process and upcoming projects.
