Bring the breathtaking beauty of the Scottish Highlands into your home with Liberty's brand new quilting fabric range, Postcard from the Highlands.
With this stunning collection, you’ll discover how to harness the power of Northern Scotland’s cascading rivers, bountiful flora and fauna, and breathtaking coastlines and incorporate them into every stitch of your quilting and sewing projects.
Every fabric in the collection has been meticulously printed onto Lasenby cotton.
What is Lasenby cotton and why is it perfect for quilting?
Lasenby fabric is weightier than its cotton companions, making it very stable and perfect for quilting. It’s printed using traditional screen-printing that infuses rich colour tones into the fabric, bringing the studio designers’ hand-painted creations to life.
