It is called Grandmother's Flower Garden and it comes in several colorways. The yellow with the teapots and flowers/fruit/house/bird/etc. is my favorite.
If there was a perfect line for my patterns - this would be it. Can't you see teapots and little houses and kitchens out of this fabric? I will definitely have to make another Kettles in the Kitchen quilt with this.
The pink is very cute too. I love the strawberries and the little birds flying over the house. And look at the darling bird bath.
Here are some of the companion fabrics. Classic gingham never goes out of style. I like how the gingham is behind the wreaths and designs on the fabric to the left. It is nice to see this line of fabric is being sold at more main stream sources for us in the USA.
This is my Halloween cottage quilt I made last year from my cottage tutorial. I have had the quilt hanging in my sewing room for all of October. I do love it in the Halloween fabric. But can't you just see this same quilt made with the Grandmother's Flower Garden fabric above?
Allison comes to visit Nanny today. The whole family is excited to have her here. And tomorrow is Shelbie's birthday - my Halloween pumpkin baby from 26 years ago. Unfortunately you only see Natalie's face in this picture but I wanted to show the 3 of us together on Halloween 26 years ago when Natalie came to visit me and Shelbie in the hospital dressed in her costume that I made. I think it was a mouse costume (much as I hate mice!)
Happy Halloween. And Happy Birthday Shelbie.

Cute picture of the three of you from years ago. The baby is coming for the day, how fun. My sister's baby is 7 months old now and I saw him born and can't get enough of him. I feel like he is one of mine. She went to California with the family for 3 weeks. I missed her baby so bad!! and her too of course. :)
Happy Halloween to you, happy birthday to Shelbie!!!
I love that line of fabric, I'm trying so hard to resist buying a load, but I know I'll give in. When I saw it I did think of how cute it would look for your kettles in the kitchen pattern!
Happy Birthday Shelbie!!
and Nanny, have fun today with your new little one!
Oh, and when you have that Flower Garden Cottage Swap, count me in!!!
Love the picture! Happy Birthday Shelbie! And I totally dig those curtains in the background! LOL ;o)
Happy Birthday Shelbie! Love the fabrics...and your Halloween Cottages quilt always makes me smile!

Great fabric - and a great picture of you and your Halloween baby. More happy birthday wishes.
I think the mouse costume is really cute, thanks for sharing the photo from days gone by.
I had to enlarge you Hallowen cottage quilt. Not only are the items in the windows neat, the quilting really adds to the quilt. Enjoy the weekend.
