Leanika Fabric

Posted by: Dena in Announcements on Print 

My newest fabric collection with Free Spirit Fabrics / Westminster Fibers is called Leanika. It’s coming out this month to a fabric store near you! (And many online shops.) The Leanika collection was inspired by my love of vintage textiles. Combining vintage inspired prints with more mod hip prints gives this collection the modern twist that I love.

Last month we had lots of fun with the photo shoot, once again involving a white poodle. This time it was my own dog, Ruby, sitting inside the Leanika cut and sew tote bag. We posed Ruby in all kinds of positions, accompanied by my assistant Katrina who’s wearing the cut and sew apron. Here are some of my favorite outtakes, along with the final Leanika ad:

 

 

 

Both the apron and tote bag will be available as sewing patterns printed on a yard of heavyweight cotton, so all you have to do is cut out the printed pieces and follow the easy sewing directions. They're a perfect compliment to the 30 patterns that make up the Leanika Collection.

To find store locations and to see more of my fabric, go to FreeSpiritFabric.com

Oh my goodness I just discovered your blog and I LOVE your new line. I can't wait for it to be available. I'm redoing my sewing space and moving it to a larger part of the house (hopefully in the Spring) and I've decided on the blueberry colorway for the color scheme.

Luv, Luv, your Love Birds and companion fabrics. My daughter, 37, chose them for her 1st baby's nursery. She found them at Carousel Creations and ordered a custom bedding set and then we found more of the line at our local fabric store. And today I purchased the Quilt Magazine with the article featuring you. Had to go to your website and am truly delighted with all that I have discovered here. We are Californians, too, just north of you and so if you have an "idle" day, wander up our way and paint the Love Birds mural on baby Halle's nursery walls!! So darling! I have purchased more of the line and am making curtains, a quilt for her future twin bed. Halle @ 6 weeks loves it all and will grow up surrounded by your sweet fabrics in her Mommy's very modern house. Halle's Grandma loves you! Thank you, Dena

I have decided to use this line of fabrics in my little girl's nursery, but am having a hard time finding it locally. How would I go about finding out which fabric stores carry it?

Help Finding Leanika range

I have recently purchased the Lovebirds and Gemstone fabrics from your Leanika range to make a cot quilt. These two were the only ones in the range in the quilt shop in Australia. I have searched online and am having difficulty finding any. Could you suggest where I might purchase some please as I love the range?

Here was someone immersed in a search for truth and beauty. Words had been cheap timberland boots treasured, words that were beautiful. And I felt as if the words timberland waterproof boots somehow delighted in being discovered, for they were obviously very generous to the as yet anonymous writer of the notes. And now this person was in turn learning the secret of sharing them. Beauty so shines when given away.

I like your theory. It explains a lot about Holmes/Watson too (both old and new),

which, while not incest, always has turn-century-homophobia giving it a charge.

Even if the writer doesn't choose to deal with the question of transgression

directly, there's always going to be a reason that H&W can't be open about their

relationship.
