Fabric Lines
 
Elaine has 3 new fabric lines in the works with Andover Fabrics!  Look for her newest to debut this spring 2007.

Elaine's new line:  A Capella Hearts  is here and doing well!  There are 5 patterns in 3 fabulous color ways:  Navy, Cherry Red and Tea-stained.  From the line, Elaine has designed The Weekender Jacket, Annie's Poncho Jacket, and the A Capella Hearts Quilt.  We've also made up two of the tablerunners from Elaine's Top It with A Runner book from A Capella Hearts fabrics, and they look great!  We're selling the fabric by the yard ($9.50/yard) or ask for it at your local quilt shop.

SnowDay:  This wonderful flannel line is Elaine's second for Andover Fabrics. You'll love the rich, deep primary colors. Elaine used the fabrics in the Snow Day Jacket, Pajama Party! (boxer and pillow case pattern) and the Practically Plaid quilt.  We have limited quantities of some of the pieces in this line.  Call us for the details.

Our BirdSong Fabrics are no longer in print.


 
Sewing with Nancy
 
Watch Nancy's upcoming catalog!  Nancy's newest catalog features Elaine's The Weekender Jacket.  Nancy's staff made the jacket up in a different fabric scheme than Elaine, and it's wonderful.  Elaine's Sizzle Jacket (#504) will be featured in the catalog.  Nancy's staff wanted a Sizzle Jacket that wasn't quite so "glitzy", so another version of the Sizzle Jacket will be featured.  And, of course, you can order all the supplies to make either version.

Currently airing is a new three part series with Elaine as a guest of Nancy Zeiman. The series, entitled Quilted Closet Jackets, features the Buttons Up, Santa Fe and Tropical Twilight jackets. Nancy and her staff selected their own fabrics and color ways for a fabulous look you'll love. Elaine's jackets have also been featured in Nancy's catalogs, so you can order the patterns and fabrics to make them as pictured.


 
Kaye's Quilting Friends
 
Recently, Elaine taped a new series with Kaye featuring Elaine's M2 Again Jacket. Watch your local PBS station for series 1900 to see Elaine and Kaye as they teach you how to make this simple and stunning jacket.  

Still running, the previous series features Elaine and Kaye as they showcase the Confetti Jacket. As with all Kaye's Quilting Friends programs, this show will be available through your local PBS channel. Be sure to request the shows for your area.
