Your First Sampler Quilt Series with Valerie Nesbitt • Educational, G, 01-Sep-2018
The fabrics used here as examples are from Makower. Some of these are no longer available; similar fabrics in colour and tone could can be used instead to recreate this look.
Fabric design house Stof have a current range entitled Vintage Roses, that would also work well and you could ask your local quilt shop about.
We worked with Creative Quilting to put together a kit which is specially arranged for Your First Sampler quilt. You can purchase this kit through the shop – just click here.
