Bush Onions & Wild Flowers Purple

Photographs are a useful guide in purchasing your fabric.  All of our photographs are as provided by the manufacturer.  The Quilters Studio will not be held responsible for any issue in your selection based on the photograph provided.

We tear our fabric, thereby ensuring that you receive a selvedge to selvedge cut of what you ordered.  If you would prefer to have us cut your selections, you will need to direct us to do so.  We do recommend that you launder your fabric before cutting it for your project.  Laundering your fabric is more to eliminate the chemicals and inert dyes that are inherent to any fabric manufactured, thereby easing your use of the product.

Dreamtime: In winter, after rains, new flowers become abundant. These become very decorative with bright yellow, pink and lavender colors. Wild bush onions have small bulb like onions, long slender green leaves, like thick blades of grass and have distinct onion smell. The bulbs offer a pungent onion flavor; however, the green tops are milder. These can be eaten raw and is considered an important food for Kimberly Aboriginal people. People gather bush onions by digging in the sand. The best time to gather bush onions is in April/May. Bush onions are also favorite food for native birds, known as Brolgas.
