Our Customers Love Daiwabos!!! And We Love them Too!!! Just ask Marilyn! We’re featuring a couple of her quilts in this post, more about them later.
Marilyn's Daiwabo Quilt
So, since we already have a large selection of Daiwabos, we decided to become the “Go-To” place for Serenity Daiwabo Taupes on the Interweb. We currently have 68 or 69 print/color combinations in stock, and we’ve just ordered 45 more. This will give our Daiwabo fans over 110 different fabrics to choose from, including pretty much every Daiwabo basic print and color, all the ombres. We’re also expecting our new 2010 fat quarter collections real soon, as well.
This will give you the ability to create to your hearts content, while not being limited by color or print, and not having to shop around to multiple stores to get the prints and colors you want. We’ll have it all right here for you!
Well, I can feel that some of you are saying: “What the heck is a Daiwabo?” The answer is, only the finest Japanese silk screens, in fantastic colors, some more muted and some brighter, on the highest quality quilter’s cotton. These are all made by Daiwabo in Japan under contract to EESCO, owners of Maywood fabrics and Cara Collection, and the line name on these is Cara Collection Serenity.
These prints are the true Japanese aesthetic, extremely elegant prints and blenders, and each one has multiple shades so that you can literally mix and match at will across the entire line, old or new prints notwithstanding. We really love them! Can you tell? 
As an example of what you can do with them, our friend Marilyn H. from
Marilyn's Hubby's Daiwabo Quilt
Oklahoma, USA sent us some pictures of her latest Daiwabo creations. The first is a quilt she made for herself, and the second, a more masculine quilt she made for her hubby. Each of these quilts were made with just 3 or 4 Daiwabo prints. In the first quilt, she used a leaf print in three different colors. And in the second, she used a beautiful fan-feather print in several colors. These two quilts were both backed with one of the prints from the tops.
And we think they’re both fabulous! Nice Work, Marilyn!
