Hand dyed fabrics are on the site! I’ve got some Ice Dyed (shown here) and Indigo Dyed.

This collection of fabrics debuted at QuiltCon 2024 in the Freeman’s Creative booth. SO many lovely people came through, here is Christina with the fabric she picked out (it matches her style perfectly). And below is a little of that fabric featured in a piece she made that weekend!

You can see the a little sampling of the Ice Dyed fabric (the little squares) in her improv quilt- from a workshop she took at Quilt Con!

Thank you for reading all the way to the end!

This is maybe the shortest newsletter ever, I am very long winded and love to share what’s happening in the community, but wanted to keep this one short!

Thank you so much for your support!

Cheers, River Takada
