Whimsy!
Little chic prints are all the rage right now.  I can only describe them as whimsical...
it's all the little detail that makes them interesting and memorable. 
There is a certain little capriciousness that really stands out.  I am reminded of some of the illustrations in children's books, like Madeline, for example.  Fabric artists, like book illustrators, give us the gifts of their imaginations. 
This week, I have collected a few of my new favorites to share with you.  These all have that whimsical quality to them that will make you smile!

Eco Chic Shopping Bag Pattern
With any order placed I will send you a free pattern for this very nice and practical reusable shopping bag.  Make a bag using any fabric you purchase from me and email me a few pics.  I want to have a picture parade of shopping bags made by my customers for a future newsletter.



Shopping Bags!

I have been impressed to find that just about every grocery store has a stack of reusable shopping bags for sale.  Last week I was at the Ben Franklin Craft store near my home and found a very nice free pattern for a fabulous looking grocery store shopping bag.  I like the size and shape and it's super easy to make.  It can be made out of vinyl, lined with cotton, or made with a double layer of any cotton.  It's wipeable, washable, and easy to use.  Best of all, you can choose your own fabrics and favorite colors to personalize your bag.  I am going to include a copy of the pattern with each fabric order placed for the next several weeks. Take a few pics of your completed bag using AllegroFabrics and I will host a picture parade of bags in July.I have lots of fabrics that would work well...especially the ones with fruit and veggies!
 Fabric requirements:  5/8 yard outer fabric and 5/8 yard lining fabric, and 7/8 yard webbing for handles.
 
Finished size is about 15" wide X 5.5" deep X 18" high.

Made by LilyandEbony using Bijoux and Pop Garden! Fabrics designed by Heather Bailey for Free Spirit.  This print was so easy to applique on the shirt...and I love how this skirt turned out.  No matter how you combine these two fabric groups, you just can't go wrong!
I have this beautiful Pop Garden paisley fabric in yellow (as seen in the skirt above) ivory, lime green, and turquoise.  Trim and ruffle fabrics are part of the matching Bijoux collection...many colors are available.

Tanya Whelan has created a wonderful soft pastel color palatte of beautiful fabrics called French Hat Box.  Her vintage roses and coordinate prints  are perfect for home dec projects and clothing.

I love the triple roses in this print...and the stripe...

The polka dots come in several different color ways, as do these rose bouquets.
Isn't French Hat Box the perfect name for this collection?

New Fall fabrics are arriving everyday in the AllegroFabrics Studio.  There are some very interesting new themes as well as few that continue to go strong through all the seasons.  Those little birds and owls are leading the show into Fall.  Michael Miller has a very sweet little print called Night Owl with a chocolate brown background.  Alexander Henry has a wonderful collection called Thunder Flower with an Anime twist to it.  Deers are the newest animal to make the fabric print scene this Fall.  Jay McCarroll has a wide eyed deer in funky colors as part of his collection called Woodland Wonderland.  Michael Miller has a few colorful Pet Deer and Joel Dewberry just launched his Deer Valley collection.  Animal prints are making a statement as well.  Jennifer Paganelli has zebra prints (not just black and white!) that are selling very well.  Have fun shopping for these as well as the Holiday prints that are now arriving. Allegro Fabrics has over 500 bolts now in stock, with over 100 of them currently on sale to make room for new arrivals.  See you there!

The main Fishy Fabric is from Alexander Henry.  I cut out one of the fun fish and did a simple applique on a t shirt...a few buttons made good eyes and bubbles...
