Downton Abbey–Lady Mary

I am so excited to be working with Andover Fabrics and designing quits for their Downton Abbey line.  I want to share the beautiful fabrics they have for Lady Mary.

Here is a sneak peek.  I quote Andover here, “These stunning fabrics from our upcoming Downton Abbey collection are inspired by Lady Mary, featuring jewel tones and patterns that showcase her style”.

and a close up:

There are mood boards for each character, here is Lady Mary’s board:

They did such an awesome job of capturing each character.  I have a box of fabric on its way to my studio.  I have been cleaning and organizing and just plain getting ready for the fabric arrival.  It is due here by the end of day tomorrow!  At that point I will tear open the box and share the fabrics right away.  For now, would you like a peek at what I shall create with Lady Mary’s fabric?  Well, all right then…          This in just a digital image, but before long I will be playing in the fabric.  I have named this quilt Regal Mary.  For those of you using social media (namely Instagtram) this one is #regalmaryquilt.  I hope to share many photos on Instagram and Facebook as well as my blog.  Follow along, it will be fun!  I will try to get the patterns up on my website soon, always so much to accomplish.  Well, I must work quick, I have so much to do before Quilt Market. 

Gotta go to work for the day, Bolts in the Bathtub, see you there!

Blog at you later,
