Garden Party by Philip Jacobs. Gorgeous colours and fantastically huge flowers that swirl all over the fabric. I'm seeing lots of it this weekend as I've used it to back the large silk quilt I am currently hand-quilting. And I can confirm that it goes very well with long-weekend-laziness and chocolate Easter eggs.
Excellent, does not look as though chocolate stains will show up on it either!

It looks especially beautiful next to the ranunculus and tulips below it.

What lucious fabric.
I see you are reading Engleby - what do you think? Quiet a departure, from his usual habitat.

Beautiful, particularly when combined with chocolate.

Wow, I didn't know that it was so easy to combine elegant and cheerful. I'd like to cover a whole sofa with that fabric. Can't wait to see some of the finished quilts in the book!

Am working on a new epic rose & lilac design this weekend for Westminster, also eating Easter eggs...

Beautiful fabric Jane! Happy Easter to you and yours...Debbie

oh my! If I were to eat chocolate eggs whilst stitching I just know the fabric would be covered in brown smudges! Can't wait to see the silk quilt! Sounds lush! t.x

Stunning Jane.
And so much like the previous photo!
Can't wait to see it made.

I love the warmness of the red. Which is it? Magenta? Also is there a basic quilters book you would recommend? Everything you do is soooo beautiful.
