New Widescreen Colors

January 19, 2016 by carolyn friedlander 6 Comments

Good news, there are three new Widescreen colors. Widescreen is one of my extra-wide fabrics with Robert Kaufman. At 108″-wide, they make backing a quilt super easy.

First up is a warm plummy-purple. I’m looking forward to pairing it with plenty of orange and peach and cream.

Then there’s a slightly saturated, sky-ish blue. It will go with everything…reds, greens, darker blues, golds…

And finally a green. I’ve really been wanting a green. It’s a slightly sophisticated grassy-green that I’m thinking will suit lighter blues, navies and denims, plus mints and other greens.

As soon as they arrived last week, I started auditioning them with my liberty aerial grove–a WIP that is recently back in the rotation.

Not sure which one I’ll pick, because I kind of like them all…and for different reasons. Guess, it’ll depend on what mood I’m in when I am ready to baste.

    Hi! This is so lovely. How big are the swatches of Liberty fabric you use to make this? 🙂 I have some 2.5 squares that might be perfect for this!

    Excellent additions! I have to say, I love your Widescreen prints for backings. I’ve used the blue and grey ones so far. I’ll have to mention them at my local shop and get her to order some in 🙂
