6 Favourite Blueberry Park Makes
The Fabric Fox on 3rd Aug 2016
Blueberry Park is a unique fabric with a wide range of colours. Designed by Karen Lewis, the Blueberry Park fabric features over-printed patterns which gives this collection a slightly-raised, silky finish.
To show off how versatile Blueberry Park can be we jumped onto Instagram to find 6 of our favourite Blueberry Park makes.
6. HALF SQUARE TRIANGLE HERRINGBONE QUILT KIT by THE FABRIC FOX
Okay, so we’re cheating a little bit with this one as this is a quilt kit we designed. As you can see the quilt features a herringbone pattern. We chose sorbet colours as we wanted to create a quilt that would look great flung across your bed or draped over a sofa during the spring time.
You can buy the Half Square Triangle Herringbone Quilt Kit and you’ll be able to see it in person at The Handmade Fair. It’s real easy to make so it’s perfect for first-time sewers.
5. FANCY FOX by BIRDIEANDDOT
We couldn’t have a top 6 without featuring a fox now, could we? This Fancy Fox, made using Elizabeth Hartman’s popular Fancy Fox pattern, is a close-up of a mini-quilt made by twin sisters Birdie and Dot.
They made this for Cadoodlesanddesigns, who sent them this in return.
4. ELLA THE ELEPHANT by LIBBYCRAFT
Look at this little cutie! It’s an elephant with Blueberry Park for ears and feet! It’s amazing what a pop of colour can do. Ella the Elephant has been crocheted and sewn by Libbycraft. Reach out to her on Etsy if you would like an Ella of your own.
3. GEMS by SRDANIEL
We love how different colours have been used to add real depth to the gems. This is a great example of what is capable with Blueberry Park. These gems were sewn by Srdaniel as a mini-quilt for Tawnee Kinnebrew. Mini-quilt swaps are really popular!
2. SEWING MACHINE by FA_BULUS
We have seen this pattern done a few times but it looks incredible in Blueberry Park, and we’re particularly fond of pink and blue so this was definitely getting mentioned. Fa_bulus made this using Quietplay’s sewing machine pattern.
1. HEXIES CUSHION COVER by QUIETPLAY
Speaking of Quietplay (Kristy Lea) check out this amazing modern hexies cushion cover. Not all of the fabrics used are Blueberry Park but it just goes to show how perfect they are for pairing with other fabrics. We chose this as #1 because we absolutely love modern hexies right now!
