Eclectic Elements COLORBLOCK fabric

Hello friends,

Colorblock fabric has been out since last fall, but we still wanted to celebrate the release of such cool fabric in the Eclectic Elements line from Freespirit. 

Today I am sharing a few images of the projects my sister, Patty and I made for the Live. Also included is some basic information about each project and if a pattern was used. I will be showcasing each project in the coming days, so you can see it up close and have more information on how it was made. Of course the best way to "see" each project is to watch the LIVE on YouTube with Tim. Once the LIVE is over, Tim will post the link on his blog so you can watch any time that works for you!

Projects by Patty

1. Stacking Buckets - "Tub Family" by Rosie Taylor Crafts

2. Slide-down Pencil Case - Tamara's Joy Sewing Channel on YouTube 

3. Faux-patchwork Pillow - 16 x 16" pillow form

Projects by Paula

1. idea-ology vignette panel (9 x 9")

2. Cards w/ fabric

3. Apron - I used an old apron I had on hand as my pattern.

4. Etcetera Tag w/ Etcetera Facades.

Colorblock comes in 4 scales

Canvas - largest scale 

Quilting Cotton - in three scales called Patchwork, Tiled, and Mosaic.

*Just for reference, the apron was made with Tiled w/ a front pocket made of Mosaic

I know Simon Says Stamp has a limited supply of Colorblock cut pieces. You can currently buy it in two cut forms:

1. Four Fat quarters (one of each print). Each Fat Quarter is18 x 21" 

2. Bundle of eight 10 x 10" squares (2 squares of each print)

If you are looking for cut yardage - just do a google search and multiple Etsy sellers will pop up, as well as Fat Quarter Shop (online retailer).

So there you have it. 

Like I said, I will be back shortly to share all the project shown here today.

now carry on,

paula
