If you've been searching for May Gibbs fabric at Spotlight and can't seem to find it anymore, you're not alone. Spotlight no longer stocks May Gibbs fabric following licensing changes. The good news is, the collection is now better than ever.
What Happened to May Gibbs Fabric at Spotlight?
May Gibbs fabric was previously available at Spotlight through a licensing agreement with Merchantwise and Nerida Hansen Fabrics. That partnership has ended, and Spotlight no longer carries May Gibbs fabric.
The current official May Gibbs fabric collection is produced by Devonstone Collection, a well-known Australian fabric brand loved by quilters and sewists.
What's Different About the New May Gibbs Fabric?
The Devonstone Collection release is designed especially for sewing and quilting projects, using premium cotton and beautiful colour palettes. The basecloth quality is a noticeable step up from the earlier Spotlight range, with a softer feel and excellent stitchability.
Devonstone is also known for taking fabric design further, with in-house graphic designers creating extra details like wideback prints ("Wideloads"), coordinating collections, and more creative releases still to come.
Where Can I Buy May Gibbs Fabric Now?
May Gibbs fabric is available at Koala Fabrics and other independent Australian fabric stores, both online and in-store.
At Koala Fabrics, you'll find the full current range ready to shop online, including 100% cotton and wideback prints for larger projects like quilts and backings.
