Fairy Frost, Day 1
I have been a huge fan of Michael Miller's Fairy Frost for many years. It's been around since 2001, in fact! I had a bit here and there and then I was sent a HUGE fat quarter bundle from their warehouse in 2020. What do you think?
What? You can't really see them? Well, here are a few I pulled out for some projects. There's just about any color and hue that you might need. I selected these for my Festival of Lights quilt which I made in 2018. Two blues, a yellow, a gold, a red and the perfect white!
And how do they look? Perfect, I think you'll say! First, the individual paper pieced units. I was also using the Festival of Lights fabric collection.
And here's my quilt. Do you like how I turned one fourth of each block so that it looks like there's a 5th block in the center?

I absolutely LOVE Fairy Frost fabrics! I'm drooling that they sent you all those fat quarters!! The quilt is beautiful. Looking forward to seeing your Gnome Minky project! I've never used Minky and it really does scare me!
ReplyDeleteMy Gnome Minky projects are done. I discovered there's nothing to be afraid of! These fabrics are not as dense as other brands. I hope you'll give them a chance once you see my steps in July.
DeleteFairy Frost is has always been my favorite. Love them all!
ReplyDeleteYes, Linda. Fairy Frost has long been a favorite of mine. They are soft and they sparkle and I even washed some (to go with the Minky) and it comes out just as soft and the sparkle has stayed!
DeleteI haven’t sewn Minky with regular fabrics. Look forward to seeing Fa La Gnome and your other projects with Fairy Frost.
ReplyDeleteI think you'll be pleasantly surprised at how well these fabrics worked together. You'll see in July!
DeleteLove the Fairy Frost fabrics and your quilt. I have never sewn with minky, but I love the feel of it.
ReplyDeleteI love Fairy Frost!! Wish Michael Miller would send me some. ☺
ReplyDeleteHi Debby! Oh yes!!! These fabrics are fabulous. I can hardly wait to see what you've come up with. I wish Michael Miller would send me some, also! HAHA! ~smile~ Roseanne
ReplyDeleteI DO like how you turned it! And I like Fairy Frost, too. How much fun is it to have that bundle to work out your ideas??? Lots of fun, I'm guessing!
