Spotted this entrancing stack of striped knits at Raystitch in the U.K. I know there are more and more striped knits available for fashion sewing all the time, but everyone has their preferences on colors and stripe widths — to me, these are just perfect.

I found Teja Williams (teja_jamilla on Spoonflower) by Pinteresting around. She is a freelance surface pattern designer from South Wales, currently living and working in London. These patterns are incredibly skilled and her collections show her talents in a very broad range of styles. I’m envisioning so many of these printed on silk for dresses! Teja also [...]
I have always wanted UK company mini moderns to bring their wonderful wallpaper designs to fabric meterage, and now they have! I won’t declare any superpowers though, since they’ve been producing fabric for their cushions, tote bags, and tea towels all along. Whitby is hand screen printed in London in three colorways onto 53″ (137cm) [...]
Here is some serious hyperventilation-worthy news: Liberty of London is launching its first Lifestyle fabrics collection this weekend at the Spring Quilt Market in Kansas City! Their first collection is called Bloomsbury Gardens, inspired by the historic district of the same name in London. There will be 11 designs total in five colorways, printed on [...]

It’s in three colorways, available as metreage, cushion covers, and curtains.

She’s now offering her fabric by the yard, digitally printed on organic linen, through her Etsy shop. I love how you could swear these fabrics were handprinted (I did!) until you read the description that [...]
{ Little Trees Monochrome } Miss Print in the U.K. produces hand-screenprinted, environmentally fabrics, wallpaper, cushions, and lampshades. The fabrics are printed on a home decor weight linen-cotton or 100% cotton basecloth. The team of Yvonne and Rebecca Drury also have a book called The Printed Pattern which focuses on printing repeating patterns by hand. [...]
I was looking over the latest fabric offerings at John Lewis, which I gather is a slightly more upscale Target in the U.K. (If Target sold fabric, that could be dangerous.) a department store on par with Macy’s or Nordstrom in the U.S., only with fabric (dreamy!). Spheres, from John Lewis’ exclusive in-house collection, is [...]
Fibercopia links to this .pdf article from World of Interiors by designer Wendy Bray. Ms. Bray has been designing since the late 1940s and is still working today. Sanderson will be bringing one of her prints to fabric later this year, and she’s also working with The Art of Wallpaper on a colleciton. She said [...]
