Isn’t it funny…I bet there’s no other industry where the seller would say ‘I wasn’t sure how I would feel letting it go once it sold’ and I TOTALLY get it Comment from : Coffeedrinker |
|
Yes definitely art deco fabrics Comment from : Debi Ogle |
|
Nora, that new stash of Liberty is FABULOUS! Can’t wait to see what masterpiece you turn them into💕🧵 Comment from : Helen Peddycord |
|
For every quilt I have sold or given away, I secretly want it back Comment from : Debbie Lee |
|
Those two fabrics would most likely be concidered art nouveau Art Nouveau celebrates elegant curves and long lines, Art Deco consists of sharp angles and geometrical shapes Art Nouveau came first, lasting roughly from 1880-1914 Art Deco came later, after World War I This distinction is important politically, because Art Nouveau was all about whimsical romance and escapism in a pre-war society, and after the war it no longer seemed to suit the spirit of the times Comment from : Kaskus |

Beautiful Liberty fabrics and beautiful quilts at the end of video! I'm wondering, do you add a label to the backs of the quilts that you have for sale? Comment from : jenny strahley |

Tana Lawn from Liberty Comment from : Red barn lane |

I'm sure in the the month that this video has been up that people have said that the substrate is lawn (I believe that voile is the same) I am a fan of lawn, it makes a great quilt back So far I have only used Heather Ross's lawn as a quilt back Yes, other brands than Liberty manufacture lawn/voile Robert Kaufman had what they called Cambridge solids, I got a bunch to use as background with my Liberty collection as well as the other snippets from Heather Ross, Anna Maria Horner, and others that I have Comment from : AvivaHadas |
|
A lot of people use the finer liberty of London Tana lawn for clothing more than quilting in the UK Though it would make a beautifully soft quilt The last fabric would make a fabulous skirt Comment from : Sarah Wilson |
|
I think 1930s Art Nouveau Comment from : Dianne Chapman |
|
Love the wildflower fabric! Comment from : Imadandy |
|
Maybe Art Nouveau rather than Art brdeco Comment from : Challice Robinson |
|
Hi,I am from Austria and still working on sewcialites 1 and I Love it I make the blocks in 3 and in 6 inch I will Not do sewcialites 2, but will Download the blocks for later So have fun with it! Comment from : Edda |
|
I did Sewcialite 1 just this year in the 6 inch but I did a different setting which I liked better I am going to do Sewcialite 2 as well Comment from : Sabrina Buoniconti |
|
Making quilts also increases the electric bills quite a bit, it's something that we most add to the quilt final pricebrThe fabrics you chose are very beautiful, it's about the same price in France for cotton fabric with inferior quality I think you got a good deal there Inspiring video, happy sewing ! Comment from : Floral Heart |

I made a couple of blouses from Liberty prints about forty years ago, in the days when I worked in an office The fabric was very fine, silk-like I believe it was Egyptian cotton As some mentioned that they had issues with collar wear, I found the same with the cuffs on long sleeves; how it brings memories - fond ones! I occasionally find little pieces as I don't throw my crumbs away These wee pieces find their way into my crumb quilts; how sweet it is! On my bucket list to visit! Thank you! Comment from : Carol Lombard |
|
A meter is 40” and the fabric is called lawn Which is a cotton they also do there prints in other fabric such as silk etc Comment from : Karen Casey |
|
Please do not move your upper body so much I almost got nauseous watching you weave back and forth Loved your quilts though Comment from : Lisa Shirtz |
|
LAWN is the kind of fabric at Liberty Comment from : Airmom |
|
Those fabrics are beautiful! Can’t wait to see what you do with them! Comment from : Cathy Parker |

I don’t quilt, but, I worked for Disney for 20 years! The movie is ‘Cruella’ Comment from : Deb Mcclellan |

Hi Nora & 'fam' - I did Sewcialites I - I'm relatively new to quilting, and decided to do it for skill-building which it definitely did! Blocks were labeled 'Beginner', 'Intermediate', or 'Advanced'which I loved especially when I completed an 'Advanced' block :) I did mine using random batik fat quarters, so it looked completely different than the FQS finished quilt, but it was a great time I couldn't wait for Fridays when the new block was uploaded LOVE the idea of making blocks in different sizes maybe I'll try that with you! This was an AWESOME video so much information in such a compact clip! Now I'm going to find a clip of the history of the Liberty Building! LOVED all this! Comment from : Autumn Piper |
|
I am glad to see you I have been looking for your videos Comment from : Mending, Sewing, Quilting…Oh my! |
|
could use the whiter as corner stones or sashing Comment from : earline mcgahen |

Hello from Philippines! I love Liberty fabric! Just additional information: Liberty Mall in London produces and designs their own fabric What amazed me is that whenever Liberty Mall has an employee who gave birth to an eldest child, the mall will design and produce a fabric named after that child I have a cousin who works there now as a maintenance staff whose wife gave birth to a son two years ago but the fabric named after him, Theodore Manor, just came out this month as part of their Autumn/Winter 2022 Liberty Fabrics collection I also love fabric and is starting to hoard some in preparation for my retirement in a few years Your choice of fabric is beautiful Thank you for this vlog Comment from : Jyn Lacierda |

You are fortunate that you went when the x change rate was good When I went it was $200 USD to 1 GBPbrSo double!- and not in my favor Comment from : Sandra |
|
I've missed you as well I love your quilts and book reviews I just joined your IG page and am excited to see the variety of quilts you work on It helps me feel better about my own aesthetic I love traditional, modern and quirky Comment from : Blair S |
|
Our(sewing group) experience…people are looking for queen size quilts They bypassed all of our smaller sizes,no matter how low the prices Glad you did well Comment from : June Smith |
|
Hi Nora, nice to see you again I had to check out the Liberty of London building - wow that is so cool I am planning on participating in QAL with Fat Quarter Shop too Comment from : Barb Olson |
|
Congratulations on your sales After seeing the unsold quilts, your price points were possibly too high given the piecing errors Perhaps your techniques may need more practice and time Points have to meet, border designs must measure true For example the hourglass blocks needed to be sized to equally meet corners I realize that the quilting police that we joke about should not exist but when we sell, our work should be of the best craftsmanship possible Best of success in your next event Comment from : Deborah Droog |

Hi, I stumbled across this YouTube offering and enjoyed it so much I was in London's Liberty's fabric department during September and was amused that we may have been enjoying the insatiable search for fabric inspiration at the same time However there is something which bothers me about so many of these sites WHY do some of you present them without much identification Just a name -NORA BURROWS and NO INFO ABOUT YOURSELF OR WHERE YOU ARE I'd like to know who is giving me all this friendly chit chat Surely I am not the only one who wonders about this lack of communication on the personal level Congrats regarding selling your quilts Maybe someday I'll see you at a future London Quilt Event, although I live in Scotland I send small quilts to impoverished European orphanages Bosnia/ Albania etc for neglected children Mostly using second hand recycled fabrics I have also begun to create fidget mats for dementia patients Comment from : Barbara Timmons |
|
People have absolutely NO idea how much a quilt takes to make! Comment from : Georgy Colson |

I am a new subscriber Love your video! Very refreshing to hear a different take on the quilting world and your visit to Liberty of London - on my bucket list as well as a trip to Bath - plus Scotland, I started quilting just before the pandemic and have also given most of my quilts away as gifts to family and friends So thank you for letting us know how much you sold your quilts and which sizes people were most interested in Also, I have noticed that Pottery Barn and Garnet Hill are featuring quilts for home decor Sewlets get sewing and sell those beautiful handmade quilts! Comment from : Elizabeth Garrity |

Your ability to express yourself, about your creative thought and process astounds me I wish I could have done that at your age Fun to listen to your thoughts just fall, effortlessly from your mouth❣️💕 Comment from : Yvonne Allan |
|
Love the quilts and great job selling them, you did well I would have expected you to sell more of the smaller ones than the larger ones The Liberty fabric is a tana lawn and while it's different Art Gallery Fabrics have a very similar weight and feel I have saved the blocks from socialites but never done the quilt I think my plan was to save a few years and just pick out my favorite blocks I have found that I don't do very well with mystery quilt alongs Comment from : Nanci Quilts |
|
Cate, at (The last homely house), has several youtube videos about Liberty Fabric Some with quilts she has made, and a tour of the Liberty Factory You might enjoy looking at her channel Comment from : Claudia Lautenslager |
|
So good to see you again, Norah! 😁😁😁 To answer your questions - Liberty was built in 1875, and a metre is 3 inches longer than a yard ❤️ Comment from : Heather Cawte |
|
glad you're back! Comment from : Rosemary Sponseller |
|
Great to see you back Liberty of London is such a fabulous shop It was my first job when I was a teenager and I’m sure is what set me off in my career as a fashion designer The fabric is tana lawn and is finer than quilters cotton but beautiful quality and stunning colours I love your choice of patterns Can’t wait to see what you make Comment from : Amanda Robson |
|
I’m doing Sewcialites 2 as well I think it will be fun Looking forward to seeing your blocks! Comment from : Cassie Playford |
|
Great to see you again! Comment from : Susan Van Sluyters |
|

|
Congratulations on your sales and it's really good to see you back! Comment from : Teresa |
|
Missed you Nora! I too have “Liberty envy” and ,yes, it’s called tana lawn I can’t bear to cut what little I have Your idea of making blocks from every chapter to make a quilt is a brilliant time traveler Many years ago my thinking was just like that but now being eighty years old, it just hurts my brain! This is exciting So happy you are back Congratulations on selling the quilts My favorite one too 😍🙋🏼♀️ Comment from : Judith La Moure |
|
I’m so happy to see you back! You’re one of my favorite channels I love your work and your informational content I’m looking forward to everything you mentioned in this viewing 😃❤️🌺 Comment from : Stella Unger |

I don't know the Liberty history, but I believe the fabric is called "tana lawn" Betsey is my favorite pattern Comment from : sadiejosiemom |
|
I am so happy to see you again! Your two quilts are stunning and I can see why they sold Is tana lawn the Liberty fabric you were trying to think of? Comment from : Linda Ladner |
|
I like your ideas for the Sewcialites sew-a-long Oh, and I have Liberty envy; you did very well! Comment from : Colleen |
