Jo-Ann Fabric and Craft Stores, the leading national fabric and craft specialty retailer, has enlisted the expertise of M'Liss Rae Hawley, the internationally known leader in the field of quilting, to expand class and fabric offerings for quilters nationwide.

M'Liss has designed an exclusive line of fabrics featuring a variety of vibrant colors – a M'Liss specialty – and some of her favorite and popular themes. Her artsy floral groups include: M'Liss's Garden, Garden Court, and Spring Bouquet - all inspired by her gardens. In addition, her new line of fabrics also incorporates the travel-themed Experience the World with M'Liss, and the whimsical feline collection simply entitled, Meow.

“These designs were very fun to do. And, because they are pre-coordinated, they will save customers time,” said M'Liss. All of the fabrics are 100% cotton, with a total of over 40 designs available at a price of $6.99 per yard. Look for additional collections, including a dog-inspired line, to be available in stores later this year.

“M'Liss' fabulous new designs are a wonderful addition to the quilting assortment offered to our customers,” said Michelle Christensen, Jo-Ann vice president, general merchandise manager. “Combined with her classes, Jo-Ann Fabric and Craft Stores is the destination for all quilting needs.”

Highlighting the Jo-Ann Creative University class schedule are the Experience Quilting with M'Liss class offerings. Quilters at any skill level, from beginner to advanced will benefit from this curriculum designed by M'Liss exclusively for Jo-Ann.
