JENNY BEYER
PALETTE 2009-2010
The Jinny Beyer palette is probably the best known collection of
fabrics. The collection is 150 fabrics , various designs, covering the full
spectrum of colours. The printing is so good that if you don't want the tonal
design on the front it is very common for quilters to use the reverse side which
is always an even colour. For many quilters this range is their first port
of call if they are looking for a blending fabric. There is usually a very
good collection of colour matches with Jinny Beyer and other RJR fabric
collections as well as fabrics from other suppliers. We generally have
most of the range in stock. We also have a small selection of the fabrics
deleted from the 2007 Palette range if you are looking to match an existing
fabric.
