This vintage-wallpaper-esque print with cute pirate animals might just make me get over that though. Also in this crop of Alexander Henry’s ongoing kids prints line are modern, graphic trucks, a [...]
I have been following Jenn Ski‘s work and blog for a long time now and knew it was only a matter of time before her designs were brought to cloth! Jenn is one of the three Lilla Rogers Studio designers that P&B Textiles recently licensed to create fabric lines. (Caroline Gavin’s Wild Thyme is already [...]
{ Pinks } Illustrator David Walker‘s latest collection for FreeSpirit is called Hopscotch. Definitely a fabric upon which you and your little girl can agree. Don’t worry, parents of boys (and tomboys), you’ll get the David Walker treatment in May. { Blues & Whites } { Golds & Greens }
