Have Fun With Dick and Jane...With A New Fabric Collection From Michael Miller Fabrics

Each of my kids learned to read with “Dick and Jane”,dick_jane michael miller.jpg from a dog-eared edition that had long been stamped “Discarded”. My father-in-law, a former teacher and reading specialist, rescued the books from the garbage at his school and they were handed down to our family. We have read and re-read them a hundred times.

So I have a warm place in my heart for “Dick and Jane”.dick and jane fabric.jpg

And they back! Michael Miller Fabrics has reproduced the illustrations from the books into a fabric line.

I think the response from quilt shop owners was great. There was a bit of a “buzz” going through the aisles at the convention center.

Look for the collection to arrive soon at your favorite quilt shop.

They had a wonderful display at Quilt Market and I could not resist taking a photo with a couple of my favorite kids “Dick and Jane”. (See Sally.  See Sally look out the window. Look Sally Look. Oh Sally Oh!)Dick and Jane words.jpg

Wow! What a brilliant idea! I can't wait to get my hands on this fabric. I'm already imagining the gifts I could make with it. (Pajamas, anyone?)

You bet, this is going to be awesome. I am already thinking of making a purse out of the fabric. :-)

You can get a pattern Dick and Jane by Donna Westerkamp at pattern peddlers or quilterswarehouse. The pattern is for a twin size bed and uses the Dick and Jane fabric.
