Prettiest Fabrics: Peppermint Bark

Time to talk about another beautiful fabric bundle! With Christmas just around the corner, it was time to purchase my favorite Christmas fabric for the year. This huge collection is called Peppermint Bark by BasicGrey for Moda Fabrics. Not only does it have the traditional red and greens, but it introduces aqua to make an interesting color palette that I can’t get enough of!

I have a few plans for this collection, but the main reason I have it is to use it for the Home for the Holidays sew along. My favorite fabric would be perfect to use as backing, but there are lots of options here in this collection.

I can’t forget to mention the amazing binding options we have here. Not only do the stripe fabrics have interesting details in them, but they are printed on the diagonal. Plus, there is a stripe fabric in every color of the collection to provide even more options than I know what to do with!

One thing I did notice as I looked through this collection, they added grunge fabrics in every color. Grunge is my favorite type of background or solid fabric to use because it has texture. This adds interest to the quilt and gives the eye something more to look at. I have yet to decide if I will use the white grunge or the white on white fabric for my background, or maybe I will use both!

I could stare of this fabric for days! There are so many different designs from snowflakes, trees, peppermint candies, to even some beautiful cursive writing. This collection has it all!

So what do you think of this fabric? Are you planning on using it in any future projects? Let me know in the comments below!
