What are Painterly Fabrics? Painterly fabrics are prints representing qualities typical to the art of painting. They are marked by an openness of form, with shapes distinguished by variation of color rather than a specific design. Marcia Derse’s fabrics are the perfect example of painterly fabrics. Her latest collections are already very popular in our shop. They are: Mosaic, a 24-piece collection of prints based on textured hand-dyes. These organic patterns create an opportunity to add a wonderful sense of play into your quilts. The tone-on-tone interplay of swooping lines, swirls and square mosaic shapes will be a fresh addition to your stash. Palette, a 40-piece collection of tonal solids with a definite hand dyed appearance. With subtle gradations of color, these solids have an understated movement that will add depth to any project. The full range from cools to warms, neutrals to brights, is proudly carried at our shop and our website. Go to pineneedlequiltshop.com to see the full line.

A Flannel Tip from our Pine Cone Experts

Flannel has a tendency to dull your needle and then it might snag or tear the flannel. Use a 80/20 Jeans and Denim or Universal needle and change it each time you sew with flannel. Machine needles are inexpensive and using sharp ones is a great way to sew with flannels successfully. Order a pack of needles when you buy your flannels to ensure the best results for your project. Schmetz Universal Machine Needles $3.95 includes 5 needles
