Painted Meadow Fabric with Coneflowers

6/26/2019

18 Comments

 
Can you imagine a meadow with hearty, deeply colorful blooms like the red and pink sunset colors across the sky? This is what I thought of while I visited my mother last summer and we walked through the gardens. The coneflowers were in full bloom in the warm summer sun with their plump centers drawing in the bees and butterflies.

I love the proportions of coneflowers and those big full cones, full of nectar, and colorful petals that hang down with a lovely curve in warm red, fuscia and rich sunset shades. The flowers seem as if they are always looking up to the sky in anticipation of the happy sun or as a welcome for the bumblebees. ​​

The beautiful shape of the coneflower inspired this collection and I couldn’t resist adding in those bumblebees- so plump and fuzzy, just like the flower centers! The fabric group also includes little drawings that show the coneflowers and bees in sweet illustrations or dancing within paisley shapes. Watercolor textures, sprigs of plants and sketchy oval dots compliment the lively group.

The focus fabric is gorgeous and the other fabrics work so beautifully with it! Can't wait to get my hands on this!

Do you know what the repeat in the large floral is? I'm already dreaming of a OBW with this one. I think it's a perfect print for one.

I am becoming addicted to your fabrics. Each collection you design is more beautiful than the last, but I have to confess that Painted Meadow takes my breath away each time I see it. I just purchased a layer cake along with your Fence pattern. I can't wait to make a cheerful quilt that will add a burst of Springtime to my home throughout the Winter months. Those sweet bumblebees are irrestible. You are such a talented artist. Some day I hope to see your stunning designs on other home goods like china, calanders, note cards. etc., but for now your fabric has increased my passion for quilting.

As I am measuring my new kitchen curtains, cone flowers, my granddaughter is sitting next to me wearing her pillowcase dress made from Dandi Annie. I just so love your fabrics and my curtains will add a much needed bright spot in our long white winters in South Dakota. I should also say that her birthday crown in made from your peony line from 3 years ago as she just turned 4. Thank you for your artistic beauty!

Many thanks.

I just started making quilts again after several years of not doing so. I just came across this fabric and it is gorgeous. I’m so very disappointed that I can’t find fat quarter bundles or layer cakes anywhere. What a beautiful line.
