We are excited to soon carry a brand new line of batiks from Riley Blake Designs – coming in early December. Riley Blake is an established brand for quilting fabrics but they have up until now focused more on contemporary modern print fabrics and have never done any batiks. Imagine our surprise at Fall Quilt Market in Houston this year when we passed by the Riley Blake booths and saw a fabulous display of gorgeous batik collections and projects!

The friendly company reps were excited to let us know that they will be entering the batik market with their new line called Expressions Batiks coming this December. They have also partnered with several well-known quilt designers (Quiltworx, Cozy Quilts, Whimsical Workshop to name a few…) to feature their new fabric collections with beautiful projects. We excitedly ordered a large collection of batiks from their first release and should be ready for purchase early December. We will also have several of the project patterns available as well.

Check back soon for a blog post on our trip to Fall Quilt Market for pictures from the trade-show hall and from the display at Riley Blake. Meanwhile you can click the pictures above to browse the new fabrics that we will soon have for purchase.
