I received an exciting package in the mail! Kennard & Kennard Fabrics sent me some samples of my “Forest Wonders” fabric line for K&K Fabrics. It feels great to have the actual fabrics in my hands!! The Echidnas and Ants designs were inspired by the echidnas I spotted chasing ants on a trip to Tasmania a few years ago, and an echidna I saw last year near Patonga, NSW. The Rose Robin designs were inspired by the rose robins I spotted flitting around the trees on rainforest walks in Tasmania several years ago. The Galah birds we have in abundance around my home in Sydney. For this fabric range I was inspired by an Australian colour palette, including the earthy tones of red Pindan dust in the Australian outback. ‘Pindan’ is the name for the red-soil country of the south-western Kimberley region of Western Australia. I also chose the deep forest greens of the Australian rainforest. I can’t wait to see the collection in my local fabric shops!! Kennard and Kennard’s quilting cotton is 100% Cotton and fabric width is 110cm. The fabrics are available from KK Fabrics. And I’m looking forward to seeing what you make with them.
