URBAN CHIKS • fabric | creativity | design | inspiration | sewing | 

Urban Cottage.  Modern and timeless.  Funky and comfortable.  Shades of black and gray on cream.  Oversized prints and wovens that work for quilts and home decor.  I'm all in!

Have fat quarters prepped and ready to cut for an Urban Cottage Swoon quilt.  Or a Swoon Sixteen.  (Both patterns by Camille Roskelley for Thimble Blossoms.)

I'm also stocking up on some of this 54" wide, heavier slub-textured fabrics for pillows and maybe to cover a chair.  This pre-made Patchwork print is 44" wide and mixes the wovens with the slub-textured fabrics - it's perfect for a simple quilt, a tablecloth or picnic throw, curtains and pillows.  Two lengths can be joined to make a quick patchwork quilt.  (Ask me how I know that.)

And the Urban Cottage toweling!  It might be my favorite Moda toweling - ever.  I'll share more about that next week.  

Anna - Moda's new social media maven - made this awesome bag!  (I know - I want one too.) (You can find Anna on Instagram - ModaFabrics and MyWanderingPath.)

Holly - the Urban Chik - has been working on something new... something Cheeky!

This collection features some of Holly's favorite signature prints from earlier collections - Swell and Sweet.  They're keeping company with
a few new prints in the same cheery color palette. If you’ve got a stash of those collections – and Swell Christmas – these prints will coordinate perfectly! 

Though the collection is pretty terrific on it's own.  The blocks are by Chelsi Stratton of Sherri & Chelsi.  (Cheeky will be in shops in February.)

Urban Cottage?  That will be headed to shops next week.

Happy Friday!
