Remembrance – A Collection with a Story to Tell

Northcott Fabrics | A Special Collection Inspired by the Quilts of Valour Tour of Remembrance

Some quilts tell stories. Some carry memories. And some offer a heartfelt thank-you that words alone could never express.

Introducing Remembrance, a very special fabric collection from Northcott, inspired by the 2027 Quilts of Valour Canada – Tour of Remembrance.

This collection grew from conversations and ideas shared between Watergirl Quilt Co., Northcott's Deborah Edwards and Lisa Compton of Quilts of Valour Canada. Together, we wanted to create something meaningful: a collection that would commemorate our journey through the historic landscapes and memorials of Europe, honour the courage and sacrifice of Canadian service members, and inspire quilters across Canada to create quilts that offer comfort, recognition and gratitude to our veterans.

In September 2027, we will travel together on the Tour of Remembrance, visiting some of Europe's most significant sites of Canadian military history, including Vimy Ridge, Juno Beach, Tyne Cot Cemetery and the Dieppe Canadian War Cemetery. One of the most meaningful moments of our journey will be a special quilt presentation at Beaumont-Hamel.

But remembrance doesn't have to stay in the places we visit. It can live on in the quilts we make, the stories we share and the connections we create.

We hope this collection inspires you to make something beautiful with a purpose – perhaps a Quilt of Valour for a deserving Canadian veteran, a quilt for someone you love, or a special project that ensures these stories are never forgotten.

Pre-order yours now! The Remembrance collection is expected to arrive at Watergirl Quilt Co. in May 2027. Reserve your favourite fabrics now and be among the first to create something meaningful with this very special collection.

Because behind every quilt is a story, and behind every stitch is an opportunity to show someone that they are remembered.
