September 8th - Double Drunkards Path Tutorial

We appreciate you reading our newsletter! It's been a week full of our favorite types of fabric - strawberries and flowers! We also found a few minutes to make one of our favorite blocks, the double drunkard's path, and we have a free set of templates for newsletter subscribers and a Youtube tutorial for putting them together! We hope you get a bit of stitching time this weekend!
 
New Japanese Imports! 
Our favorite part of the day is when we receive a shipment of NEW fabrics! Opening the box and seeing Suzuko Koseki's collections of Paris Daisy, Patchwork Cheater and Silhouette Daisy wasn't any different. We are in love with these adorable strawberries and daisies. They are available at our shop in fat quarter and half yard bundles. Click the picture to be taken to your favorite bundle!

We had some fun today playing with this gorgeous Bittersweet fabric by Sue Daley Designs. Keep scrolling to see what we made and how you can get a free pattern! These prints really catch your eye with their saturated colors and 3D designs. We've been pairing these prints with our new free Double Drunkard's Path Tutoria. Bittersweet is available in Fat Quarter ($62.98) and Half Yard ($123.98) bundles.
Take a closer look at Bittersweet and watch our unboxing video below!

September 5th - Unboxing of Stonington and Slow & Steady

We appreciate you reading our newsletter! We have been busy here at Westwood Acres bundling pretty fabrics, picking coordinating solids, unboxing a few new collections so you can get a better look at some of the newest releases! 
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SLOW & STEADY 
Tula's new collection is just bright and happy. The illustrations are full of little 'easter egg' treasures for your (or your little ones) to enjoy!  There will be fun tortoises, hares, trophies for the winner, and an audience of friendly forest animals to find! You can find Slow & Steady in our shop in fat quarter bundles for $58.75 for 25 fat quarters. Our half yard bundles ($117.50) and full yard bundles  ($219.50) are also available now! 
Slow and Steady is such a unique line, we wanted to give you a closer look! We've recorded a fun unboxing video so you can get a better idea of the scale, the colors, and the gorgeous prints! You can find our Youtube Unboxing video below!

STONINGTON BY DENYSE SCHMIDT
We also spent a few minutes today sharing a closer look at Stonington by Denyse Schmidt. This gorgeous collection would make a timeless quilt, and with the gorgeous contrast included in this collection you might not even choose to use a solid for a background! Some quilt patterns we could see working very well with this fabric are Jen Kingwell's A Wild Rideand Tea Party by Vanessa Goertzen. Stonington is available here in fat quarter ($79.90) and half yard ($155.90) bundles.
