Fabric of the Week: Del Hi by Valori Wells

This week’s feature fabric brings a bit of sunshine into the coming fall. The line, Del Hi by Valori Wells, was designed to capture the sense of nostalgia: your grandma’s antique couch, a Jane Austin novel, florals from a favorite childhood dress… A perfect blend of graphic prints and blooming botanicals — the look of an antique patina and modern whimsy all wrapped into one collection. The line was created for FreeSpirit Quilting Fabric, and you can purchase by the yard online!
