If you have been reading my blog for any amount of time, you will know that I am a big fan of Kate Spain’s fabrics! I first fell in love with Good Fortune, and only just finished that quilt a couple of weeks ago! Then I found Flurry, which was hoarded and treasured until I designed Ornamental. And it’s been a slippery slope of love and admiration since then.
Starting next Monday, I’m super excited to announce a June-full of Kate Spain! We’re kicking it off with an interview with Kate Spain right here, and hopefully you will learn something new! Then I’ve rounded up a fabulous array of bloggers who I know have made beautiful Kate Spain projects which they will share with you every weekday in June. We will close with another Q&A with Kate Spain – this time with questions you have submitted!
But this blog hop is not just about checking out all the Kate Spain pretties! We want YOU to get involved to!! There’s two ways you can get involved, with lots of great prizes in line:
- On June 14th, link up your favourite Kate Spain project that you have made – show off your creations that use (mostly) Kate Spain fabrics.
- On June 28th, link up any finished project you have made throughout the blog hop in June using Kate Spain’s fabrics – zippered pouches, cushions/pillows, bags, quilt tops (finished quilts not required!), clothing, whatever!
And a massive thanks to our sponsors who are providing some brilliant prizes for the link ups!

I just checked out her site and your Ornamental quilt to see what Kate Spain is all about. LOVE!!! I used to buy fabric like crazy, namely from Amy Butler when I was making my bags. BUT OMG…let’s just say I’m glad I’m not into fabrics anymore. Well I am but not so much into sewing (call me lazy).
Deborah says
Wow – so excited. I have stashed my Kate Spain fabric, so now I need to use it! Just need to find some time in June to sew 🙂
Jessica says
I LOVE Kate Spain! This should give me the kick in the butt to work on my Good Fortune quilt. I’ve already made a skirt with Terrain… maybe I’ll wear it today 🙂 Looking forward to this.
Aoife says
Ooh! Awesome! I’m looking forward to this. And I have a charm pack of Cuzco with co-ordinating solids waiting to be made into a quilt top since last summer – now is the time! Thanks, Alyce for being the final push 🙂

Kate Spain has been my absolute favorite for so long! I started a Central Park quilt but it’s not done yet. Would love to have time to make something from all her lines of fabric.
