Pre-printed panels are perfect
for quick cushions, totes, wall
hangings and more, especially
when they have such eye-
catching motifs on them! The
British Invasion collection from
Cloud9 Fabrics includes a
collaboration with UK designers
Eloise Renouf, Jane Foster and
Rachel Cave to create three
panels, each printed onto a
linen-cotton blend. You could
even hem it all the way round
by 1cm and then by 1cm again
to create quick-make tea towel
gifts for friends and family.
