Potluck!

Today we are taking the ruler concept in a different direction. How about rulers printed on fabric?
What two better combinations?
So, let me introduce you to
Sandy Klop, the queen of cool.
A while back, Sandy was visiting the moda warehouse.
Once she heard we were assembling American Jane quilt kits,
she insisted on rolling up her sleeves and helping.
Not only is she cool but her fabric lines are pretty cool.
Her current fabric is named, Potluck.
(arriving in stores October)
Sandy's inspiration for this collection:
I have very good memories of potluck picnics at aunt Maggie’s farm!
Tables were put up by the uncles in the yard with old doors
and saw horses and the benches were boards on crates.
The aunts brought out the hot dishes while the watermelons
cooled in the creek with the soda pop!
After the pies, cakes and homemade ice cream cones
were eaten, the adults sat in lawn chairs to drink coffee
from the thermos while the cousins bounced on the board
used to cross the creek but more often ended up falling in!
This Potluck line is reminiscent of those summer days.
This Potluck line is reminiscent of those summer days.
There is summer sunshine blended with a cool breeze.
Sandy also combined some of the most requested fabrics from the past
and added new designs and colors to round out the collection.
The fabric we are featuring today is her ruler fabric.

Rows and rows of running yardsticks,

I can imagine all kinds of bags made from this fabric to
store school supplies,
sewing gadgets and more.
Sandy has done some patterns that feature this line.

I also wanted to share a few other
American Jane/ Sandy Klop sightings.
Be on the lookout for this to featured in the
Make it Yourself/Fall Winter 2013 magazine.
