Focus on Fabric ~

Let's focus on Robert Kaufman - the fabric, that is!  Especially the Essex Yarn Dyed Homespun, just out.  

Here's "Maritime Quilt" ~ a free pattern from Robert Kaufman's to help us jump start using that fabric collection.  The pattern, designed by modern quilt designer, Heather Black, who blogs as Quilt-achusetts, also includes hints for matching stripes. 

And the completed Maritime Quilt made by Heather beautifully showcases the Essex Homespun.
