A Little Birdie Told Me... all about Urban Zoologie

Ann Kelle came out with Urban Zoologie last year.  The collection included owls & whales.  Super adorable owls & whales. Here they are as giant hexagons with Urban Circus fabrics.

 

I also used the original Urban Zoologie in my Opposites Attract quilt.

 

I was excited as can be to learn that coming soon there will be more!!

  

Ann Kelle is back with 20 new fabrics!!  Butterflies, lady bugs, monkeys, dinosaurs, birds, cats, dogs and more!!! Best of all the colors coordinate with many of the prints from remix!  The new Urban Zoologie prints will be available in June.

 

Here are a few pictures from Ann Kelle's Blog

 

 

  

 

You can also get the adorable owls & whales on cuddle by Shannon Fabrics.  Cuddle is a plush knit polyester fabric that comes 58" wide.  It can be used as backing or you can make an entire quilt just from cuddle. :-)

 

It's hard to see in the photos just how fuzzy & yummy cuddle fabric is... but trust me it feels amazing and I haven't found a kid yet that doesn't love it. {...or an adult for that matter!}

 

So I want to know which animal from the new group is your favorite?

Personally I'm going with the Bird... I'm sure you are all shocked!

I'll be back on April 29th with A Little Birdie Told Me!

I love the whales, the butterflies and the ladybugs, just to start off....great fabric!

[Sabra Rounds]

I don't have any boys to sew for, but the monkeys are looking really cute!

[Jill]

Monkeys monkeys monkeys! I love monkeys and these are just the cutest!

[Tiffany]

Love, Love LOVE them all! But the monkeys are my favorite too.

[Mary Ann]

Oh that monkey has captured my heart! The turtle is so cute too...or...actually all of them but if I could only have one...the monkeys!

[Sandy A]

The SCOTTIES of course! :) I'll be looking for them in my lqs for sure!

[Kelly O.]

Love the lady bugs

[ursula]

tough choice. I'd have to say monkey or bird. Oh darn! Guess I'll have to get both :)

[JB]

I really like Ann Kelle's fabrics, but I can't pick a favorite. I think they would all be appealing in a quilt for a grandchild.

[Sally]

I love the turtles! I have loved turtles for many years. I will definitely buy the turtles and then use them to make something(s) for myself :-)

[Toni]

Owls...love the owls!

[Katy (France)]

I love the monkeys..I always wanted a monkey but my parents would never let me have one..now that I'm a grown up I think I just prefer watching them in the zoo (and sewing with them!) :-D

[Karen Heard]

I love the green turtles/tortoises (?) and the birdhouses! So many cute prints.

[Dorian]

I saw these pictures on her site the other day. Sooo cute!! I was happy to see those dinosaurs, my youngest son would love a quilt with them! But I, myself, am a butterfly type gal.

[Alfa garcía]

I really like the turtles!!!

[Beth]

I'm going with the birds too :-)

[Jen]

Those are so cute. Might have to find some for my stash. Thanks for sharing with us.

[Beth]

Having boys I am drawn to the turtles and dinos but I personally like the owls and birds :) I am hoarding some of the owls fabric, along with some of the zigzag from remix...love!

[Kristy]

I love the dinosaurs and birds. So cute!

[Lisa LeBlanc]

The monkeys are too cute...I have twin boys and one of them used to climb on everything...this would have been perfect for him. The turtles also are super cute. Lisa in Texas

[Annmarie]

Love them all but I'm a butterly nut so love them the best!

[KarrieLyne]

You know this already, but the TURTLES!!!! :D

[Diane]

I definitely go with the birds.

[TerrieAnnie]

The birdies caught my eye first, most definitely. Next would be the turtles and then then the dinosaurs. Can't wait til they're here!

[Melanie]

Too many cuties to choose from. I have to go along with you. Love those sweet little birdies! A close second is the adorable little terrier pups. Can't go wrong with any one of them.
