Welcome, fabric lovers! You've reached the online home of Fabric Trends, the magazine devoted to showcasing the newest fabrics available in unique patterns. Each issue of this quarterly publication features approximately 15 projects by top designers, including easy-to-follow instructions, diagrams and full-size templates (if needed). We also include swatches of each fabric used in the quilt, providing you with an up close and personal color-accurate look at each print available. In addition to patterns, Fabric Trends profiles popular fabric designers, explores different types of textiles, and offers insight into color and style trends.

Here on our website you'll find previews of the quilts featured in each issue, a free online project from the current issue, a list of stores that carry Fabric Trends, and subscription information. Plus, we're offering an online bonus—the Trendwatch column, which details the hottest colors and styles in the quilting and home decor arenas. Thanks for visiting!

Inside This Issue — Summer 2008

Summer Romance

Five years ago, Fabric Trends was launched to showcase some of the latest fabrics in the marketplace, as well as to provide quilters with traditional and contemporary designs that work well with them. Over the years, we've also profiled many well-known fabric designers, who have shared their ideas and inspiration, and have taken a look at how their visions fit in with home decorating ideas and trends.

For this fifth anniversary issue, we asked the professional design staff at Rosen's in East Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania to help us style our summer quilts. They generously allowed us to use their beautiful room sets, provided us with props, and gave us a wealth of information about home décor. We can't thank them enough!

Knowing that summer would be in full swing once this issue came out on the newsstands, we also asked our favorite manufacturers and designers to send us projects on the light side—light fabrics, fresh florals, and pretty prints. They more than rose to the challenge! From bed quilts to baby quilts, and everything in between, we acquired a wide range of decorative accessories for your enjoyment.

If your vacation travels take you to faraway places that are a little off the beaten path this year and you happen to have your quilting (or a copy of Fabric Trends) with you, send us a photo. Extreme quilting? Why not? Stranger things have happened. We'd love to hear from you! See what's in this issue.
