Natural Instincts By
The 11 colors of Style PN014 texture-ombre fabric released last fall (along with her Wind In The Whiskers art quilt) were just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to McKenna’s breathtaking Natural Instincts collection.
Quilt Size 66” x 82” See individual block projects on page 12.
This Spring brings the release of all the other stunning fabrics that make up the group. Keeping true to her nature-inspired artistry, McKenna set forth with a rich color palette and zeroed in on natural textures. The resulting fabrics seem to capture Nature at her unguarded moments.
Style PN046 for example, with its soft grain and its light and dark areas, suggests the view of a sun-dappled lake. A scattering of leafy sprigs in Style PN047 gives the impression of standing under a forest canopy of tall pines. The blurry stripes of Style PN045 suggest stands of young trees. For many in McKenna’s “quilters’ nation,” these fabrics are like manna from heaven – miraculous designs that feed their creative souls. With this new release of Natural Instincts fabrics comes a new, gorgeous art quilt designed by McKenna. True Nature celebrates the pure beauty found in remote areas where moose, bear and bighorn sheep and mountain goats roam freely, eagles build nests and trout fill rivers and streams.
