Oakshott Across France
The wonderfully enthusiastic (and talented) Jacqueline Marangos not only uses and designs with Oakshott fabrics but sells them at festivals and exhibitions round France.
She has produced this beautiful little bag in Ruby Reds (kit available):

English-speaking, button-mad Jacqueline runs L'Aigulle Boutique in Burgundy and has taken Oakshott fabrics to Nantes and Paris and in July (4-6) she will be at the Festival du Lin in Normandy.
[expand title="Jacqueline de L'Aiguillée Boutique vend les tissus Oakshott en ligne et serait heureuse de vous renseigner. Read more in French."] Visitez son site sur www.aiguilleeboutique.com
Avez-vous remarqué que cette année les couleurs sont vives et éclatantes comme pour chasser la grisaille de l'hiver. Cela change de nos beiges et noirs que nous aimons tant. Des vestes, manteaux, bijoux, chaussures sont de toutes les teintes gaies et colorées et, oui, il y en a aussi pour la « quilteuse ». Oakshott tissus pour patchwork vient de sortir 57 couleurs chatoyantes dans la gamme Colourshott, parfaites pour le patchwork et l'habillement.

"Est-ce que c'est de la soie"? demandent 50 fois par jour des clients à l'Aiguillée en Fête ou Pour l'Amour du Fil à Nantes, tellement les tissus Oakshott ont un aspect soyeux et irisé. Non le tissu Oakshott c'est du coton, 100% tissé à la main en Inde, créé par Michael Oakshott un anglais qui a grandi là bas. Il fabrique ces tissus dans le cadre d'un commerce équitable.
57 nouveaux coloris saluent le printemps avec une nouvelle largeur de 137 cm et un grammage légèrement supérieur ce qui vous permettra de faire non seulement du patchwork mais également de la couture.
