I'm back in Australia after a wonderful 2 weeks visiting Salt Lake City for Quilt Market followed by a week in New York. It's so good to be back at my computer and go through all of my photos. Sadly I did lose all of my video clips and some photos due to my little "bloggie"having a spak attack and resetting and deleting everything. It's not the end of the world but it is dissappointing as I had taken some great video footage.
I wish I had arrived in Salt Lake City a fews days before market as it looks like such a lovley area to visit. The city is surrounded by snow capped mountains which are only about a 15 minute drive away.
I was fortunate enough to be able to pop in and listen to the Morman Tabernacle Choir during their rehersal night. They are wonderful and a joy to listen to. Salt Lake City has some beautiful parks and the most adorable flowering trees. I'm not sure what variety they were but I just loved them:
Beautiful blossoms
Lovley parks
Tulips everywhere
My photos and video of the Tabernacle Square and the choir have all been lost but I can still remember how beautiful it all was. All the gardens were full of tulips just coming into bloom, something that just doesn't happen here in tropical Brisbane.
In this post I'm focusing onNorthcott.
Northcott's booth was focused centred on their extremely popular line of fabric called Stonehenge. This beautiful marble print has been a massive seller for them and is getting more popular each market. Their School House session was standing room only as they presented their new panels that match the basic prints.
There are three new lines in the Stonehenge family:
Renaissance The colour palette below is "Mineral"
Renaissance is available in Mocha, Mineral and Peacock as shown below.
Stonehenge Magnoliawhich has a beautiful stained glass effect: available in Earth, Flamingo and Mysteria
The panels below are from the Apollo range:
Northcott also have a new range of fabric called Stonehenge Skins. They are in the Stonehenge family and have animal skin prints on them.
