'Nana's Garden'
For Red Rooster Fabrics
Arlene Neely of Rabbits Haven brings us a true
“breath of spring” in her premiere fabric
collection! Arlene’s signature style of using soft
watercolors and stitchery motifs in her quilt patterns
translates perfectly to these lovely fabrics. A unique
panel print and coordinating large repeating stripe
both feature the familiar Rabbits Haven bunny motifs
created with faux stitchery. The supporting collection
prints are a striking combination of three unique rose
motif designs accented by delicate stripes, checks
and polka dots. All are offered in a delicate palette
of green, yellow, pink, white and soft beige.
Use the bunny motif prints along with the coordinating
patterns to create lovely springtime quilts as well
as sweet children’s items. You can also use the
motif outlines as a guide for stitching with
embroidery floss or perle cotton. In addition,
the coordinates alone can be used to create bona
fide shabby chic home décor! Think of romantic
bed and bath ensembles – duvet covers, bedskirts,
curtains and more! Check out the striking bed
quilt that Arlene has personally designed for
her project pattern.
