Take a guess

Posted by on
Lu Summers' new line for Moda, Summersville, will be in our shops in the spring.  I am on my third project using it so far and have not even come close yet to tiring of it.  I don't know if I ever will.  Question is, which is your favourite print and which do you think the quilt shops ordered most of?

    I love the houses, but I bet I would actually use that cross hatch one the most, so that is my guess!

    This is one of my favorite upcoming lines. I can't wait to get my hands one some, although I'm quite positive my LQSs won't be ordering it. Hopefully I'll have lots of online options!

    I'm also guessing the alphabet will be the most popular.

    I would use the cross hatch one more than the others. The alphabet one would be great for a child's quilt.

    I love the one you show on top, but I'll have to agree on the cross hatch as well. I would use a lot of that one

    Love love love B & W, the big buildings, the little buildings and the alphabet, but I think I'd have to access online too.

    I'm not too fond of the one in the middle between the little buildings and the alphabet, but I'd be hard pressed to pick a favorite among the rest.

    Cross hatch?

    Not sure which I like the best. I'd have to see big swatches of them all. I do get a bit frustrated that if there are 20 prints (including different colour ways) then the UK shops that stock a line will pick the same flaming 6 prints.

    Ohhh these are great, I would guess the cross-hatch print would be the most popular. So versatile!

    i like the alphabet best and can hardly wait to get some! The crosshatch is yummy, but we've already got a ton of those from Alexander Henry (farmdale, in the kitchen, pirate, fashions for home)fabric lines. the one I like the least is the trees & houses, but I think that that will be the one chosen by quilt shops.

    The little houses?

    I love the three on the right. I bet the stores ordered the Heath copycat, since everyone is doing it. In this run it is perfect. Every store should at least carry the alphabet.

    My favorite is the alphabet, b ut I'm going to guess the crosshatch.

  18. Sarah21 January 2012 at 19:09

    My fave would be the houses and trees print, and I reckon the shops have ordered most of the one second from right :-)

    Love the alphabet, but the fabric that will probably sell the best is the first to the left.

  20. Nancy21 January 2012 at 19:21

    I love the houses, but would buy the alphabet...fabric with letters is so hard to find...

  21. Sarah PingsAndNeedles21 January 2012 at 19:22

    My very favourite is the paint brush splodge marks 3rd in ... I think it looks wonderful in all the colorways ... oh my g'ness, I just typed colour with no 'u' in it ... *sigh

    I bet they ordered the crosshatch but that's because it's a bloomin lovely crosshatch. I think your prediction is right and this line is going to fly ...

    ... tell your quilt store, people!

  22. Donna21 January 2012 at 19:36

    My favorite is the houses among the trees. I'm thinking quilt shops would order more of the crosshatch because it is a wonderful background/filler for many, many projects. The crosshatch will definitely showcase the houses among the trees!

    My favorite is the cars and buses. But I would bet the quilt shops ordered more of the alphabet one.

    Can't wait, I have used her screen print fabrics in the past, but they worked out a tad more expensive, so look forward to these. Kxx

  26. Shayla Sharp21 January 2012 at 20:18

    Well, I like the one on the left and the second from the right, but the quilt shops probably ordered the ones with the buildings the most, lol.

    both of the building prints (city and suburbia) are fun prints, but the cross hatch would be so much fun to use in so many ways - can't you see binding with that!

  28. lu summers21 January 2012 at 20:38

    ohhhh, what a fun post lynne!

    i know the answer to this (being the designer an' all, haha, and the most popular is 'town' in the black (the one with the different building & cars)

    can i just mention that i'm not sure how long 'heath' has been around, but i've been selling my screen printed fabrics for 4 years on etsy and 'weave' (the crosshatch) was my second design. so it isn't actually a copycat! i'd hate someone to think i'd copied anything from anywhere :)

    and to all you UKers (and for that matter, anyone else!) don't worry if your LQS only has a few prints as i will be selling yardage of the whole caboodle in my etsy shop, yay!

    I love the abstract one best, and I love them all. I suspect the good shops have gone for them all, however my local shop will have none, as Lu has forgotten the essential gold lamay thread and 60% polyester content!

    I love the alphabet! My guess is the cross-hatchy print.

    I am going with the cross hatch print. I collect black and white prints so I am sure I will be grabbing some FQs of this line.

    I would say the crosshatch is the most popular but I like the alpha

    The letters, the letters…. will you tell us???

  34. Annabella21 January 2012 at 23:15

    Far right (the houses) is my favourite but I`m guessing alphabet was the most stocked.

  35. Poppyprint22 January 2012 at 00:08

    Houses and letters. Hands down.

  36. Michele T22 January 2012 at 02:48

    I love black and white prints so I love all of these!! My guess is that the houses is most popular.

    I vote alphabet personally but I bet the crosshatch is more versatile. It's just fun fabric in black and white no matter which design it is.

    It's hard to guess but I"m going with the cross-hatch. I can't wait to grab some of the alphabet!

  42. Elsa22 January 2012 at 16:53

    I'd say the town with all the buildings, cars and buses! Tho, I'd be happy to see them all!

  43. Charlotte22 January 2012 at 20:25

    I cant wait to get my hands on some, my LQS will not have any though as they do not cater to the trendys but have plenty of dull florals instead! I have some of Lu's hand screen printed fabric and they are gorgeous too.

    mmmh, I guess your favourite is the one with cars and that shops ordered most of ... the houses and trees (?) This is hard, they're all so lovely!

  46. Archie The Wonder Dog23 January 2012 at 15:36

    I'm afraid I can't pick a favourite as I love them all and I'm going to go with the letters as the one most ordered...when do we get to find out the answer?!

  47. Nat at Made in Home23 January 2012 at 17:08

    the one on the right hand side of your pictures (streets and cars) - at least that is my favourite...

    ReplyDelete
  48. Kate23 January 2012 at 19:01

    Hmmm...hard call. The LQS might order a lot of the crosshatch -- it might be the most versatile...but alphabets are also very popular. My fave is the one with small houses and trees. (swoon)

    Why is no one saying brush strokes? I am going to have to buy all of the brush strokes.

    I like the cars and the houses best.

    I like the letters and the little trees and houses. I suspect stores will order mostly the trees and houses.
