Maude Asbury may or may not be a real person, but she can make a mean fabric collection or three. Calypso, out now, is an exciting mix of graphic florals and geometrics. By the way, I love Anna Griffin/Blend‘s fabric ladder displays. Kitchy Kitchen is also out now. Tinsel is for Christmas 2012 [...]
I’m not sure what Yuwa’s Live Life collection is about, since we have a kitchen print, a kid’s print, and a Christmas print here. They’re all retro and they’re all sort of large scale, and all super cute. I couldn’t stop flipping through the Christmas print, each colorway was irresistible. Related posts: Yuwa Live Life [...]
It’s Michael Miller time! They introduced their color stories at the Spring Quilt Market, and this time around there are more groups and more fabrics in each group. The Michael Miller Studios collections are still organized by theme — the color stories provide another way to group prints (and their new Cotton Couture solids) together [...]
In the Kitchen is Alexander Henry’s ongoing retro-domestic collection. This year’s popular Farmdale was part of it, and I think these two upcoming collections will be just as coveted. Both are very 60s mod and cheery. The first group with the snails brings in the popular and versatile Heath fabric weave print to their quilting-weight [...]
Oh boy, am I ever crazy about this retro Scandinavian (?) kitchen print. It’s a cotton-linen blend from Yuwa, spotted at Retrosaria in Portugal. I haven’t seen it in any other shops in the U.S. or abroad, but if I do, I’ll let you know. Related posts: Japanese Fabric of the Week: Yuwa Alphabet Japanese [...]
Last week’s Kawaii design challenge on Spoonflower was one of my favorites — I voted for more entries than I ever have before! The winner, Tea Time! by Deborah van de Leijgraaf (bora), would be perfectly at home in Japan. Check out van de Leijgraaf’s Etsy shop and website for lots of great T-shirts and [...]
Japanese shop Cotton Crayon has lots of retro/repro goodness I haven’t seen elsewhere. (Most of these fabrics can be found on the fourth link down in the left-hand navigation, then click the button at the very bottom of the page to navigate forward.) I’m not sure if they ship internationally, but I found this shop [...]

Here are two rare out-of-print Japanese kitchen themed prints, found at Reprodepot. Notice the charming Jinglish in the Kitchen World fabric. I spaced on joining Sew, Mama, Sew!‘s big giveaway day this time around, but I’m enjoying seeing what’s out there. Ms. Pink Penguin is giving away some awesome Japanese and vintage fabric, including the [...]
