Here’s what’s next from Art Gallery Fabrics: Poetica (above), in stores February 2012. Pat Bravo has been brining some rougher, more natural looking lines to her motifs, which I love. Summerlove has a warm-season palette befitting its name, and with lots of Tangerine, which happens to be the Pantone color of the year. It’ll be out [...]
Art Gallery Fabrics‘ newest collection is Modernology, designed of course by Pat Bravo. This may be my favorite collection of hers yet. In fact my first attempt at putting together a Fat Quarter Shop Blogger’s Choice Fat Quarter Bundle was largely based on it, until I realized Amy Ellis’ bundle was almost the same! Great [...]
Hyperreal Garden is the next collection to look forward to from Art Gallery Fabrics (but you don’t have to look forward for long, it’ll be in stores this month!). I’m especially loving this print — it’s got an almost comic-book feel. See the fabrics in action in this post and on Flickr. Designer Pat Bravo [...]
Art Gallery Fabrics impressed with its prize-winning booth and lovely new prints. I spoke with Pat Bravo, who walked me through all that Art Gallery had to offer. The Pure Elements solids were a huge hit at market and at Sample Spree. They are remarkably soft and the colors are so vibrant. Pat said they will [...]
New Release Tuesday is my periodic roundup of new fabric sightings (mostly quilting cotton) . These fresh arrivals have started to arrive in fabric shops and are ready to buy. Retailers, as always, if you carry any of these collections, let us know in the comments. Seems like it’s either feast or famine with new [...]
Art Gallery Fabrics has always been known for their beautiful, sophisticated, modern, floral-centric collections designed by Patricia Bravo, but this season’s offerings are taking up the gorgeousness to an even higher level, I think. I especially love Coquette, perfect for spring dresses with soft, Liberty-esque florals. Above is the Powder Room palette, and below is [...]
The always fabulous Pat Bravo showed me what’s coming from Art Gallery Fabrics in the new year. First up, the Arabic-world-inspired Bazaar Style (Feb 2011), which features some recolored prints from her French Riviera collection. Bazaar Style will come in two colorways, Desert (pink) and Oasis (blue). Second is Coquette (March 2011), which Pat explained [...]
Art Gallery Fabrics‘ booth display was dedicated to showing the inspiration behind designer Pat Bravo’s three most recent three collections, and inspiration for sewing with it. Dreaming in French got a whole parlor to itself. She had me at macaroons. Outside the parlor were two gigantic mood boards showing the inspiration behind Modern Affair and [...]
Dreaming in French is the newest collection from Patricia Bravo for Art Gallery Fabrics. I love the palettes and the mixture of graphic and organic. Thanks to Laura at Spool Sewing in Philadelphia for sharing the photos! Dreaming in French is shipping to stores now. For a comprehensive list of shops worldwide that carry Art [...]
New Release Tuesday is my weekly roundup of new fabric sightings. These fresh arrivals have started to arrive in fabric shops and are ready to buy. Retailers, as always, if you carry any of these collections, let us know in the comments. Dagmar and Farmdale from Alexander Henry (spotted at Hawthorne Threads) Paradise from [...]
So many thoughtful comments this time, everyone — thank you! I will be emailing everyone shortly, but if for some reason you don’t hear from me, winners, please contact me! Prize #1: A tote bag made with Filigree fabric + one 12 fat quarter bundle goes to Cathy A who wrote, “That is a pretty [...]
If you have ever met Patricia Bravo of Art Gallery Fabrics (even if it was just through our interview last year), you know that she is an absolute dynamo. She not only designs several fabric collections a year, but masterminds the many patterns and kits her company produces. There needed to be a central place [...]
Hello, it’s Pat Bravo and I at Quilt Market, just hanging in her booth, pretending to drink tea and not pretending to eat fun-size chocolate bars. We’ve already gotten a glimpse at two thirds of Art Gallery Fabrics’ Fall 2010 collections here, and voilà , here is the third collection, Dreaming in French. I just love [...]
I’m floored that Art Gallery Fabrics offered to let me share an exclusive sneak peek of their newest collections, which will go on sale to retailers at the upcoming Spring Quilt Market in Minneapolis. Between her zillions of projects, designer Pat Bravo deservedly got to take a vacation to Paris, and it’s this trip that [...]
Art Gallery Fabrics unveiled three new collections and some impressive new patterns at kits at this Quilt Market. Art Gallery designer/owner Patricia Bravo announced one collection, Naturella, just a couple weeks ago. Here are the two others, Filigree (above, in its two colorways; Blush and Fresh) I was fixated on the art nouveau-inspired peacock-feather-like “Plants” [...]
