Aneela Hoey’s Foxglove Showcase

I’ve been counting down the days until my stop on the Foxglove Showcase because I had so much fun working with this adorable new line, Foxglove, from the always amazing, Aneela Hoey. I mean, foxes and flowers? You can’t lose.

I really love the orange in this line. I feel it’s a color you don’t see enough of (like yellow!). Together with the rich blue and warm reds and pinks, it’s a gorgeous palette that can be played in so many directions – even for a boy quilt.

Foxglove by Aneela Hooey

All the flowers and the romping little foxes felt sort of picnic-y to me, in an almost non-traditional sense, so I decided the line was perfect for a set of my Wrap and Go Cozies designed for vintage Pyrex casserole dishes. This pattern is currently out with my testers and will be available within the next couple weeks or so, with other shapes and sizes to follow.

The set I made here is for the vintage Pyrex 475 and 474 lidded casserole dishes and will be the first released in the series. A layer of insulated batting helps keep your contents hot or cold for dinner parties, potlucks or picnics.

The handle straps are optional and you can see below that I left them off the smaller cozy so you can see the difference. Plus, I just adore that floral print and didn’t want to cover it up! 🙂

If you have never worked with Cloud 9 fabrics, you need to try them. I love the feel and the way they handle and press. They are soft, yet sturdy, and have just the right weight to them. They were perfect for a project like this and also make a dreamy quilt!
