Arlene Neely of Rabbits Haven
 'Nana's Garden'
For Red Rooster Fabrics

Arlene Neely Nana's Garden Panel  19699 Pink 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.
Panel measures 24" x 44". 9 patterns/23 sku’s
