Bumblebee fabrics are due in stores this January and if you are looking for a spring project The Bumblebee Quilt pattern might be just the thing.
This pretty quilt uses gentle curves to make units that once joined together create a lovely hour-glass pattern waving serenely down the quilt.

Happy New Year!
We hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and wish you a happy and creative new year 2017!
To get quilts and pillows ready for spring we need to get an early start so here is a look at the spring collection “Bumblebee” witch will be available this January.
Last summer we had a bumblebee nest just by the studio door, and although we sometimes had to run through the door to avoid bumblebees inside, it gave us a satisfying feeling.
There are not enough bumblebees in the world but we have a whole nest by our door.
Our bumblebee neighbors and reading The Bees by Laline Paull gave me the idea of a bee-inspired collection.
The Bumblebee collection is soft, sweet and full of flowers and beloved bees and bumblebees.
A happy colour palette reminds us of light and delightful spring days.
Have a bee-utiful day!
