Hello everyone at Create Kids Couture! It’s Kimberly from Fat Quarter Shop and I’m here to tell you a bit about fabric! We are surrounded by fabric here at Fat Quarter Shop and want to share some of the prettiness with you!
Today we are going to chat a bit about basics, but focusing on prints rather than solids, like we did last month! Prints are just plain fun. Adding a dot, a stripe or a chevron to your project can give it that extra something. It can turn a plain top into something hip. It can add that pop of color that you didn’t know you were missing. Incorporate prints into your projects (and stash) and keep them feeling fresh, fun and colorful.
Our best selling printed basics are Robert Kaufman’s Spot On, Ann Kelle’s Remix and Riley Blake’s Chevrons. These three groups fly off our shelves and wind up in trendy quilts and projects. We are going to tell you about our top ten sellers of each of these groups. If you see something you like, just click the link and add some to your stash.
