Loulouthi



   Loulouthi arrived today!


Loulouthi (the Greek word for Flower) is Anna Maria Horner's latest fabric collection which comes in a range of 30 quilting cottons as well as 6 voiles.

I have been rather impatiently awaiting the arrival of this parcel since it's release early last week, and now that it is in my possession I must say that it was well worth the wait.  

I spent the morning enjoying this fabric bundle, arranging and re-arranging the colors and familiarizing myself with the various prints to see how they all work together, and then eventually braving the rather chilly weather conditions that have hit Melbourne to photograph and capture the colors of these fabrics outdoors.

Of course, since then I have been busy with the rotary cutter and the sewing machine hasn't stopped.  I hope to be able to show you a little of the progress that I have made with this new quilt project tomorrow.
