PRE-ORDER Plumberry 2 Quilt Kits and Bundles!

 

PLUMBERRY II is coming in January!!

Marcus Fabrics tell me the orders are pouring in and the line is nearly sold out.  It's time for me to place my order for the two quilts I designed, for Fat Quarters and Half Yard bundles.  

Here's your PRE-ORDER opportunity!




Hummingbird Hill by Pam Buda of Heartspun Quilts
Hummingbird Hill is the first quilt I designed using Plumberry II.  It looks much harder to make than it really is.  


There are two blocks, most of which are made from strip piecing!  Half Squares and rectangles with connector corners is all it takes to make this stunning quilt.  See....not so bad!

The photos above show the border prints.  The Hummingbird Hill quilt measures 69 x 76.  


Pressed Flowers is the second quilt I designed for Plumberry II.  There are just two blocks in this quilt as well: a snowball blocks and a Mrs. Keller's Nine Patch blocks.  The blocks look like flowers to me, which is how it got its name.  We're still piecing Hummingbird Hill, so I don't have blocks to show you of this quilt just yet.


These are the border prints for Pressed Flowers.  The quilt measures 72 x 87.

You can also PRE-ORDER a Fat Quarter Bundle or Half-Yard bundle.  

(I encourage you to place a preorder if you're interested in Plumberry II as I was told it won't be reprinted.)

Better get back to the studio and start sewing Pressed Flowers!!

Introducing Plumberry II

 


I'm so very excited to show you my new Plumberry II fabric collection for Marcus Fabrics!  I adore plums and purple fabrics and really like working them into my scrappy quilts, and to make all plum quilts, too!  Before I designed my first plum collection (Old Plum Calicos) many years ago, there weren't a lot of plums and purple fabrics in historic reproduction prints.  So, I took it upon myself to fix that problem, and boy, was I right!

This new collection will make it's debut in January, 2023.  Please!!!! Please ask for Plumberry II at your favorite quilt shop.  I always want you to buy from your LSQ first.  It is so very important that we all support our quilt shops as I won't be able to continue to design fabric if we don't have our wonderful shops to buy from.    If your local shop doesn't have Plumberry II (ask them to get it for you!) I will have Fat Quarter Bundles, Half Yards, and kits for both quilts.

Plumberry II has fourteen new plum fabrics in many lovely shades and prints from lavender to eggplant.

And....six lovely neutral prints, too.

Hummingbird Hill by Pam Buda of Heartspun Quilts
I designed two new quilts featuring all of the prints in the Plumberry II collection.  The first quilt, above, is Hummingbird Hill.  Quilt measures 70 x 78.  There are just two simple blocks and most of the blocks are made with easy strip sets!  This quilt may look complicated and hard, but it is NOT!

Pressed Flowers by Pam Buda of Heartspun Quilts
The second quilt featuring all of the Plumberry II prints is called Pressed Flowers.  The blocks look like flowers to me, and I love the open space the snowball blocks give to showcase pretty quilting!  

Quilt size is 72 x 87,

Very soon, I will be taking pre-orders for both quilt kits, Fat Quarters and Half Yards.  Plumberry II orders are coming in quickly, and I have to get my fabric order in very soon.

Watch for my blog post and newsletter about pre-ordering Plumberry II coming soon, and....Please!  Ask for Plumberry II at your favorite shop.

Keep your needle busy and your heart content!  Be well, my friends!
