Forest Fun
Sometimes it is very hard to find nice fabric for young boys that isn't too babyish or girly. I think that this line, Forest Fun, by Kaufman fills the void nicely. The critters are cute without being overly cartoonish and the color scheme of deep blue, green, orange and brown is perfect for boys.
Although a small line, the two main fabrics are of a nice scale to be featured in larger squares of some of the more simple quilt patterns. The stripe has enough movement and interest to be used as frames, borders or binding. Add one or two blenders to these fabrics and you can make a fantastic quilt for your favorite little guy.
Night and Day
Sometimes one piece of a fabric line really grabs you, and these large florals from Kaufman' s Night and Day collection just about knocked me off my feet! I had to have them. I just love the large scale black and white flowers with the pop of taxicab yellow here and there.
I am actually thinking of making a skirt out of the white and a dress out of the black.
Quilting cotton.......it's not just for quilting anymore!
