New Fabric - Paula Nadelstern

At the International Fall Quilt Market in Houston this year there were some amazing displays showing the newest in fabric, books, notions and everything quilting.


 Paula Nadelstern always has a great display that never disappoints. Last year at market Paula had created this balls using her new fabrics for Benartex and used  beads, sequins and more to embellish them. When I saw them I just stopped, they were so beautiful. This year Paula has incorporated these balls/spheres with  several quilts designed by different quilters using her fabric collections for Benartex. I for one had always loved Paula's fabrics but had the problem of not knowing just what to do with them. It was great to see the different quilts, in a variety of styles to see how the fabric could be used. It was a great display and below are some photos that I took.
