Far Far Away 3 is in the house!

As Carrie Bradshaw once said:

"Get it while it's hot.."








































Far Far Away 3 could almost be considered 2 collections in one:

The "Snow White" prints (along with the "flowers" and the "laundry day" prints) are all printed on an absolutely delicious, lighter weight cotton/linen blend sheeting that would be perfect for quilts and garments.

The "girls who love horses" and "guitars" prints are only available in the heavier weight cotton/linen blend (the same substrate as Far Far Away 2...), which would be perfect for bags and the like.

I'm in love with both substrates, and although I haven't washed any of these newer, lighter cotton/linens as of yet, I'm betting they wash like a dream, and I know from experience that the heavier weight cotton/linens wash like a dream.

Does that make sense?

(I hope so...)

The rest of the prints from the collection will be arriving tomorrow, along with some other Japanese fabrics.

We'll also post some fat quarter bundles into alewivesfabrics.com as soon as we've got them cut, so check back again soon.

XO,

Rhea
