🧵 Two New Fabric Collections Available for Preorder 🪡


Hello!

My name is Alison Ashbourne and I am a sewing enthusiast and fabric designer based in the Hunter Valley of New South Wales.

You may remember my first collection, 'A Month of Sundays', was released in November through Phoebe Fabrics. I'm writing to share that I have two new fabric collections scheduled for release in the first half of 2026, and they are now available for preorder through Fern Textiles.


'Riverview', consists of ten original designs inspired by the happiness of camping with family and friends. My family are all avid caravanners, and it was a joy to capture the wonderful memories we've made over the years while spending time together in the great outdoors.

For more information, including the quilt pattern to go with the collection, please have a look at the 'Riverview' page on the Phoebe Fabrics Website.


'Indigo Summer' is due for release in July. This eight-design collection celebrates the vibrant colours and decorative traditions of India. Inspired by my studies into historical pattern styles, the range has evolved into a joyful and richly layered collection with plenty of detail and visual interest.

You can view the beautiful selection of quilt patterns designed by Woven Ladybug featuring the 'Indigo Summer' collection by visiting the Phoebe Fabrics Website.


If you'd like any further information, or would like to place an order for these fabric collections, please contact the lovely team at Fern Textiles.​

If you have some feedback, any questions for me, or just want to get in touch I’d love to hear from you. You can contact me at alison@greenacredesigns.com.au or call me on 0401 298 225. You can always learn more about me and my work on Instagram or on my website.
