Happy fall y’all! We’re back with October’s Fabric of the Month, Decades Jazz Age by Mary Fons for Benartex! Much has changed since the 1920s: we’ve gone from Model Ts to electric cars, from telegrams to texts. Quiltmakers, however, remain the same: we love color, fabric, and great quilts. Mary Fons’s Decades line draws inspiration from historical quilts and textiles. Her debut collection, Jazz Age, focuses on the 1920s. The small-scale prints and bold colors in the Jazz Age collection make these fabrics perfect for use in applique, as blenders, or as textured solids. Mary’s love of quilt history and off-beat quilts comes to life in this fresh and unique collection. A bundle of these fabrics will be given away to two lucky winners! Submit your EQ design featuring Decades Jazz Age below…all instructions and contest details are in this post. Good luck!
