Echino!

From Market to Shoppe

The brilliant Etsuko Furuya has done it again! 
As well as designing yet another gorgeous line of fabric, Etsuko also designed and built her entire, very inspiring booth, which I must add was my very favorite booth at this Fall's Quilt Market.
Now, six weeks later, the lovely line of fabrics has arrived and I figured it a perfect time to share the photos I took of her space. 



And here's what we ordered:


 The green and the grey and white stripe in this last photo are not Echino, but they certainly look cute with the 3 new extra wide cotton/linen prints. These three rolled bolts are a new blend of fibers for Echino. They are a thin 85% cotton and 15% linen, which makes for a beautiful light weight material. They're perfectly suited for more delicate apparel and other sewing projects that require more drape then her standard canvas-like cloth provides. Finally, as an added bonus they are a great 62" WIDE unlike the others that are 44".

These fabrics may just be the kick in the behind I needed to get sewing again. By the way, I had a dream last night about your shoppe & Anita. Hope to see you all very soon!
