However, being a happy Ambassador for Island Batiks, I have had the privilege to preview some of the upcoming fabrics that will hit the Spring Market.
The first line is Fruit Punch. The detail that goes into these batiks is so awesome.
The second line is called Uncle Sam's Soda. Just in time for a Fourth of July quilt.
These fabrics will be introduced at the Quilt Market and will be available at your local quilt shops in late summer. Did you know that the fabrics for Island Batik are designed by Kathy Engle, along with additional fabric artists and designers? Every yard of fabric is created using a wax resist method, a process of using wax and dye, to create patterns and give the fabric outstanding depth and range of color. This is handmade in Bali, Indonesia by skilled artisans.
I already have big plans for these gorgeous fabrics.
I hope everyone is staying well and enjoying a little bit of Spring in the US.
Happy Quilting!

I can't wait to see what you do with them. They are beautiful. And, I can't wait till they are available. I'm thinking Quilt of Valor for Uncle Sam's Soda.
Beautiful colors, I love Island Batiks too! Can't wait to see what you create.
It is hard to resist those batiks, when can we expect them in the stores?
