Welcome to the February 2012 edition of MarcusFabrics.com! This month we're thrilled to present an overall theme of modern style, updating and restating some of your traditional favorites like pansies and paisleys with a contemporary twist!

• VINTAGE VIBE by Faye Burgos
• PERFECT PANSY by Faye Burgos

If you're a talented quilt designer, why not be "discovered" by Marcus? There's still time to respond to our Open Call for quilt designers, so create your original design based on the SPINTASTIC collection by Laura Berringer and submit it by February 15.

We know you'll love our second submission in All About Judie, so check it out, and remember to send in your best Judie Rothermel project photos as we celebrate her first 25 years as a top fabric designer in 2012.

Finally, Amish with a Twist begins this month! Solids never looked as good as they do in Nancy Rink's gorgeous quilt design. It's a unique program you won't want to miss, so check with your local quilt shops for participation details!

Whatever You Make, Make It with Marcus!
