Over 100 different fabrics, mostly fat 16ths, including fabrics by Liberty, Tilda, l’uccello, French General, Judy Newman, Di Ford, French General, Dutch Heritage to list just a few.
This collection of fabrics includes many of the fabrics in our original quilt as pictured on the pattern. Each kit will be very similar but may vary slightly for the one photographed.

We do recommend adding any special fabrics from your stash that you think complement the selection, the scrappy look of this quilt only gets better with more fabrics.
