You may know German designer Susanne Firmenich, aka Hamburger Liebe, from her Spoonflower designs, which I have featured here before. Some of her Spoonflower designs and dozens more were picked up by two European companies — Hilco, which I’ll show you in the next post, and Michas Stoffecke. Michas Stoffecke has produced a whole slew of designs, and if you count up all [...]
The nautical trend has not passed Alexander Henry by, but here it’s truly focused on some of the funnest pirates at sea you can find. Grab an eye patch, a peg leg and maybe a sword and have some fun with Pirate Island. We’re rather in love with fairytales, or at least, they [...]
Birch Fabrics also gave a glimpse at their collections coming later this summer into early fall. They’re adding a new designer to their roster, Rebekah Ginda, and you can see her debut organic collection below! First, Dan Stiles’ third collection for Birch, Safari Soiree. As is becoming one of Birch’s signature moves, the collection [...]
More new collections from Dear Stella, which will all be debuting in Kansas City next week! It’s a Shore Thing is by Jack & Lulu, Dear Stella’s first licensed designer. I love the simplicity of it. Have I ever seen an ocean-themed collection in boy and girl colorways? I’m not sure I have. Play [...]

See the QT Library for all their children’s book fabric panels. Related posts: Tawny Scrawny Lion From Quilting Treasures Quilting Treasures: The Saggy Baggy Elephant Richard Scarry Busytown [...]
One of the cool things about the Fabric Design Forum is that I have one more avenue to find artist/designers work that is new to me. Chicagoan Denise Holmes recently joined — her blog and shop are called nisee made. She is an illustrator, primarily for stationery and children’s goods, but she said she’s recently [...]
Cloud9 is gearing up for their next release, Monsterz by Michéle Brummer Everett. It’s so adorable and I think captures exactly what the modern parent wants to sew with. You could definitely say the same for all the Cloud9 Kids collections: Michéle’s follow-up, Seven Seas, and new Cloud9 Designer June Craft‘s Hey, That’s Swell!, which [...]
Now we’re getting into Alexander Henry‘s Big Black Book, which showcases prints that haven’t yet made it to fabric but probably will over the next season. Nicole’s Prints are a fun assortment of themes and motifs, and Monkey’s Bizness is their kid’s line. First, Musing on a Moustache and Where’s My ‘Stache? — hopefully will [...]
