A stitch in Colour

Stitch in color - charm squares and jelly rolls.

I've never made it a secret that I love rich colour which is why I find it difficult to buy the pale and 'interesting' colours for the shop :)  You don't really need to know that but it does explain why I really love this fabric collection designed by Malka Dubrawsky.

If you've ever come across the book "Fresh Quilting" by Malka Dubrawky or her blog "A stitch in dye", you will know that she loves colour; bright, saturated glorious colour.  Her sewing is full of rich and exciting colour combinations and inspiring design.

I love this tote bag which shows off some of the fabrics really well.  It's from her Flickr set which you'll find over here if you wish to explore more images.

These are a few images from her book which show her love of colour and contemporary design.

 

A pair of Pot holders ...

...and a quilt developed from the same improvisational design.

I think her choice of colour always gives her sewing such a lot of energy.  Gorgeous.

So you see, that now she has a fabric collection out called a 'stitch in colour', I really wasn't able to ignore it.  It is deliciously filled with colour and interesting designs.  

Note the already patchwork and 'quilt stitched', look of some of the fabrics.

I hope you like them too!
