Here’s a peek at Tina Givens‘ next collection, Haven’s Edge. There are three colorways, her signature dramatic/fantastic style rendered in a bright, saturated palette, and … voiles! For you us voile fans, the bottom photo shows the prints — a sophisticated floral and a coordinating geometric trellis print. Haven’s Edge will be in stores soon [...]
I can’t get Tom Jones’ song out of my head when I look at Tanya Whelan‘s new collection Delilah — the two don’t go together at all, but I still like the juxtaposition! Delilah (the fabrics) is already available in stores, except, I believe, for the laminates.
Jane Sassaman is being her usual wild, weird, cool self with Garden Divas. The print above is especially gorgeous, isn’t it? You can see all three colorways (Exotic, Pastel, and Peacock) on her website. Garden Divas is scheduled to be in stores this month.
Jennifer Paganelli‘s newest is called Queen Street, and it features her signature blend of bohemian/psychedelic and traditional in a bright, bold palette. It’s in stores now, except for the laminates (bottom photo), which should follow shortly.
I’m even more excited for Denyse Schmidt‘s new collection, Greenfield Hill, now that I’ve seen it up close. Her geometric prints are always so perfectly simple and versatile and sweet. And the 3-Dness of the big floral print (the topmost print in the bottom photo) is really gorgeous. Above are the voiles, which you can [...]
Can I just say? Meeting Tula Pink for the first time had to be one of the highlights of this market for me. She is hilarious and awesome and her tales of living in the rural Midwest had me rolling on the floor at the Fabric 2.0 party. And of course her booth to promote [...]
Now we’ll look at Robert Kaufman‘s newly released and upcoming designer collections. First, Suzy Ultman‘s entry in the ongoing Metro Cafe line, which is just arriving in stores now. These coffee cups are just great! Also coming soon by Ms. Ultman, a mini collection called Kiss Me. Ann Kelle (aka Kelle Boyd) got lots of [...]
The illustrious Bari J. had her first booth at market to show off her latest fabric collection Country Lane and her scores of sewing patterns (including four new ones), and to preview her beautiful-looking book that comes out in early 2011. I knew Bari was a handbag-maker before she began in fabric design, but I [...]
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 [...]
Alice Kennedy is one prolific and talented designer! I’m always amazed at the range of design styles she produces for Timeless Treasures. This first collection, Junebug, is just arriving in stores now. Next, we have Marmalade, featuring bright, tropical florals and butterflies. Marmalade will be in stores very soon. Sunny Daze is already in shops. [...]
Fashion for Home is Alexander Henry’s home dec weight collection. This gorgeous new design, Beverly Glen, comes in several colorways with a coordinated texture print called Glendon. I believe these are also available very soon. More new Fashion for Home prints … “Tucson” (didn’t get the name of this one) “Bongo Jungle”
Three new prints from German pattern, ribbon, and now fabric company Farbenmix are available now from Volksfaden. Above: Florafox by luziapimpinella; below: Owl Love by Hamburger Liebe and Raccoon Woods by paulapü. Owl Love is on 59″ wide corduroy, and the other two prints are 55″ poplin.
Here is a closer look at Petit Village from Timeless Treasures, which was featured in yesterday’s New Release Tuesday post. I just think it’s so delightful — a little bit folksy cute, a little bit hippy, a little bit mod.
Dream On by Urban Chiks for Moda yardage is in stores now! Word on the street is that despite the fierce internet love, this collection didn’t do as well with traditional brick & mortar shops, so not a whole lot of it was printed. If you like it, snatch it up quickly! City Weekend [...]
