Jenaveve is a gorgeous fabric line designed by Valori Wells. It's a blended fabric made from 45% cotton and 55% linen and is a massive 54 inches wide. So, you get the benefit of cotton and the delicious texture of linen.
Let me introduce you to a few of the designs.
This is Tribal in Merlot in deep pinks and burgundy background. Valori has just taken part in a Library show featuring her fabrics so take a look at her pictures to see the scale of this richly coloured fabric.
This is Leaves in Merlot which has a burgundy tending to brown background. These pretty leaves are in pink, peachy pink and tangerine in colour and measure approximately 7.5 centimeters in length with each individual leaf being about 1.5 centimeters in long.
Pebbles in Merlot has pink and orange coloured petal shaped marks picking out this floral yet geometric pattern. Take a look at the Martha Stewart website to see this one in action. (How to make a Reversible hat - feel tempted to make one?)
Pebbles in Merlot
Pebbles in Teal is just as beautiful in a gorgeous blue teal.
All of them are brilliant for all kinds of sewing....clothes...bags.....cushions... all kinds of things.
But. perhaps you'd like to try some? If you do then just leave a comment on this post to enter my little giveaway consisting of one fat quarter of each of these fabrics (four fat quarters)., which is 1 metre of Jfabric for some lucky person. A fat quarter of this fabric measures a hefty 50cm by 70cm - that's a lot of small bags ! I'll use the random number generator to select a winner next Friday. (September 9th).
Speak soon - Jx
Thanks everyone for taking part :)

Wow, they're lovely. I think my favourite is Leaves in Merlot, or is it Tribal? I keep changing my mind.

Well having just made the sorbetto top thanks to your link, and it has turned out beautifully (which is testament to the pattern as my skills in that area are poor at best...) I would love to make another, and I think the pebbles in merlot, joined with a plain would make a fab sorbetto!

Very nice, especially the red pebbles. I feel a new cushion coming on.
