Rowan launched Rowan Quilting & Patchwork Book No.1. Now launching it's 10th Quilting & Patchwork Book in the series, the Rowan fabrics have developed into a portfolio of talented designers. The fabrics are still used to create beautiful quilts, however, more recently the collaboration with fabric designer Amy Butler has pushed the fabrics into a new direction by producing stylish bags, accessories and modern home decor.


It is with great pleasure that we invite you
To view this stunning exhibition

The exhibition features knitted garments and accompanying images which Rowan has grouped into capsules. Many of these garments are original and date right back to the year the corresponding magazine was published. Most are knitted in their original yarns.
