New Collections from Marcus Fabrics!

It never ceases to amaze me how many new and wonderful fabrics

are created in a year's time.  If we only had money to buy them all

and a space big enough to give them all a home!

A girl sure can wish!

I recently received fabric samples of some of the new upcoming lines and wanted to share

these collections with you.  Perhaps some of these fabrics will make their way into your stash!

First up are the fabrics from a new collection by Judie Rothermel called

Civil War Journals.  I super sized the photos so you can get a good look

at these lovely prints.

Sorry that the pictures aren't all the same size.  I just wanted them to be as big as they could be so you could really see the prints.

Civil War Journals will also be offered as a Block of the Month created by the talented ladies

of Homestead Hearth.  To see the BOM click here.  The fabrics will be available

in November.

Next up are the fabrics from Judie's new collection, Nineteenth Century Backgrounds.

These fabrics are in stores now.  If you love shirtings, don't miss this collection!

These luscious fabrics were designed by Paula Barnes for her new collection

called Country Manor.

  I don't know about you, but I'm lovin' some of these prints - big time!! 

Country Manor is due out in October.

Admittedly, I saved my favorite collection for last.....Paula Barnes' Cotton Club.

Why is it my favorite??  It has R-E-D in the collection!!

Red and lovely browns, too.

You may remember that I raved about the Cotton Club quilt in May when we were at Quilt Market.  This quilt is so gorgeous, so unbelievable in person,

you can't help but have to have it!  I love Blocks of the Month, and like you, am too

busy to make them all, so I've tried to resist.  But sometimes.....

a quilt just grabs you.....ya know?  This quilt grabbed me, alright! 

And I'm smiling all the way! 

Here's a super-sized look at the wonderful fabrics of the Cotton Club collection.

Click here to see the Cotton Club BOM......or better yet, ask for it at your favorite quilt shop!

The collection is due out in September.

You really must see all of these collections and prints in person.  Even super-sized,

photos just don't do them justice.  There are plenty of fabrics from these

collections that I will be wanting to buy lots more of.....and the creative wheels are

working overtime inspiring me to make new quilts.  The wide variety of prints among

the collections will undoubtedly create gorgeous quilts and I can hardly wait

to begin piecing with them!

A big, giant THANK YOU to the folks at

Marcus Fabrics for their generosity. 

I hope these fabrics will inspire the creativity in you as well.

Thanks for visiting with me today!
