Earlier this week I posted about my last trip to my favorite Denver local quilt shop. But I didn't share about the fabric I bought!
Our luggage is soooo full that before going in I limited myself to buying 6 pieces (mini bolts or fat quarters).
This is what I chose:
The perfect modern quilter's fabric stash for me contains mostly tonals/blenders. What do I mean by that? Fabrics that present as solids in a quilt from 5 to 10 yards away. So they have a high saturation of background color and subtle prints. So these six fabrics are perfect for my stash style.
I'll share more about my stash in 2023 as I unpack my fabric from the moving boxes. My stash is basically made up of three styles of fabric:
- Solids
- Tonals/blenders (the full rainbow of colors)
- Busy print fabrics for quilt backs (I love cute print fabrics on quilt backs)
Anything that doesn't fit those three categories is slowly getting used up to refine my stash.
