Amy Butler‘s Alchemy collection is very complex! At 46 pieces you could be forgiven to not keep them all straight, but they’re divided up further into a lot of different substrates. The Studio Collection contains 12 different prints in different fabrics, including rayon challis, sateen bliss, voile, velveteen, laminates, and linen rayon, aimed at [...]
Hard to know where to look at Anna Maria Horner‘s booth – there was so much to see and it’s all so pretty. Field Study, previously released in quilting cotton and now with rayon challis, voile, and velveteens joining the range, was made up in clothing, quilt, and bag patterns. Anna’s Needleworks embroidery and tapestry collection patterns and kits [...]
As usual, a visit to the Westminster/Freespirit/Moda booth at Market did not disappoint.

Emily Taylor was in Houston displaying her new collection, Avignon, for Riley Blake Designs. You’d never guess that this was Emily’s first Quilt Market booth, as every detail was just perfect. Avignon is a bright and cheery collection showcasing Emily’s signature style of paisleys, detailed florals, and damasks in an eye catching color palette of teal, [...]
One of the most anticipated collections (okay, at least for me) at Spring Market was the first ever Liberty of London Lifestyle collection. Liberty has long been known for its impeccable designs and amazing Tana Lawns, among other basecloths. The Liberty Lifestyle line is proving to be a similar quality in midweight – one of [...]
This was my first time meeting the folks at Anna Griffin and their new division Blend firsthand, and I was not only impressed by their current and upcoming collections but also how they presented their brand as a whole. Everyone looked professional in sharp black dresses, their marketing materials are stunning, and I think there’s something to be [...]
