Art Gallery Fabrics‘ newest collection is Modernology, designed of course by Pat Bravo. This may be my favorite collection of hers yet. In fact my first attempt at putting together a Fat Quarter Shop Blogger’s Choice Fat Quarter Bundle was largely based on it, until I realized Amy Ellis’ bundle was almost the same! Great [...]
Hyperreal Garden is the next collection to look forward to from Art Gallery Fabrics (but you don’t have to look forward for long, it’ll be in stores this month!). I’m especially loving this print — it’s got an almost comic-book feel. See the fabrics in action in this post and on Flickr. Designer Pat Bravo [...]
Art Gallery Fabrics impressed with its prize-winning booth and lovely new prints. I spoke with Pat Bravo, who walked me through all that Art Gallery had to offer. The Pure Elements solids were a huge hit at market and at Sample Spree. They are remarkably soft and the colors are so vibrant. Pat said they will [...]
Art Gallery Fabrics has always been known for their beautiful, sophisticated, modern, floral-centric collections designed by Patricia Bravo, but this season’s offerings are taking up the gorgeousness to an even higher level, I think. I especially love Coquette, perfect for spring dresses with soft, Liberty-esque florals. Above is the Powder Room palette, and below is [...]
Dreaming in French is the newest collection from Patricia Bravo for Art Gallery Fabrics. I love the palettes and the mixture of graphic and organic. Thanks to Laura at Spool Sewing in Philadelphia for sharing the photos! Dreaming in French is shipping to stores now. For a comprehensive list of shops worldwide that carry Art [...]
New Release Tuesday is my weekly roundup of new fabric sightings. These fresh arrivals have started to arrive in fabric shops and are ready to buy. Retailers, as always, if you carry any of these collections, let us know in the comments. Dagmar and Farmdale from Alexander Henry (spotted at Hawthorne Threads) Paradise from [...]
So many thoughtful comments this time, everyone — thank you! I will be emailing everyone shortly, but if for some reason you don’t hear from me, winners, please contact me! Prize #1: A tote bag made with Filigree fabric + one 12 fat quarter bundle goes to Cathy A who wrote, “That is a pretty [...]
If you have ever met Patricia Bravo of Art Gallery Fabrics (even if it was just through our interview last year), you know that she is an absolute dynamo. She not only designs several fabric collections a year, but masterminds the many patterns and kits her company produces. There needed to be a central place [...]
Hello, it’s Pat Bravo and I at Quilt Market, just hanging in her booth, pretending to drink tea and not pretending to eat fun-size chocolate bars. We’ve already gotten a glimpse at two thirds of Art Gallery Fabrics’ Fall 2010 collections here, and voilà , here is the third collection, Dreaming in French. I just love [...]
The prolific Patricia Bravo of Art Gallery Fabrics will be introducing the new line Naturella at Quilt Market this weekend. It’s a mix of lush florals and leaves supported by some very pretty geometrics. I love the combination of neutral and neon! Naturella will be in stores March 2010. Above: the Shimmer colorway. Below: the [...]
This post is part of a series reporting on the Spring 2009 International Quilt Market by True Up East Coast Stringer Mary Beth of Supafine. Patricia Bravo‘s Art Gallery Fabrics booth was bumpin’ each time I passed it, so I considered myself pretty lucky to catch a moment with her Sunday to discuss the new [...]
Over the next few months I’m going to be running interviews with True Up’s sponsors. In addition to (hopefully!) giving an extra boost to the people who help make this website possible, I’m excited to get to know everyone better. Be on the lookout for giveaways and discounts too! Patricia Bravo at the Fall Quilt [...]
Patricia Bravo sketches motifs for her fabric designs, on the Art Gallery Fabrics blog. Art Gallery Fabrics was one of my favorite new-to-me discoveries at the Fall Quilt Market last year (see review here). (Full disclosure: They are now one of True Up’s sponsors.) Company owner/designer Patricia Bravo recently launched a blog, and if the [...]
Today I’ll be featuring two fabric companies I found at Quilt Market that were totally new to me. The first is Art Gallery Fabrics. Art Gallery Fabrics is owned by designer Patricia Bravo and her husband Walter. Patricia told me the story of moving to the U.S. from her native Argentina. She sewed for a [...]
