CALIFON IS IN THE HOUSE













What is blue, yellow, black, and white? Introducing Califon: a fresh take on the traditional blue and yellow color combination that we all love. The colors are a bit more vibrant and the designs are a definite break from the traditional French Provincial. What's really exciting about this line is that Mark has included a black & white palette as one of the color waves. They are a great addition to the black & whites you probably already have and will freshen up even your oldest black & white stash.

It has been over four months since we first saw this incredible fabric collection from Mark Lipinski and it was *hearts* at first sight. Even more incredible is that this collection has been put up by Northcott, making it some of the silkiest cotton around.

And now it's available right here at The Quilt Shoppe. We also have a few charm packs :)

At Spring Market we were one of the very lucky few to get into the Schoolhouse session by Mark. We were even able to sit front & center - on the floor! Talk about uncomfortable. But it was absolutely worth it.

Here are some wonderful pictures taken from said position on the floor. Apologies for a few blurs - they were showing these quilts so fast we barely had time to point and shoot!

Please leave a comment and let us know what you think of this new, fabulous collection.

I'm so pleased to have found your site. It is great to see new fabric and ideas. Looking forward to making purchases from over the pond.
Good luck with your new venture.
