Windham is throwing down the gauntlet on celebrity fabric collections with Amy Sedaris‘ I Like You. Take that, Marie Osmond and Ty Pennington! Aside from Amy’s celebrity, there sure aren’t enough funny/weird fabric collections out there so I hope this marks the beginning of a long and beautiful contract. Amy Sedaris is the author of [...]
Known for more traditional designs and motifs, Windham scored the golden ticket when they signed Lotta Jansdotter. Her first licensed collection, Echo, was a hit and it’s rather safe to say that Bella, her second collection, will be no different. The colors – tangy orange, rich indigo, aqua, yellow and a warm gray – combine [...]
It’s fair to say that Echo by Lotta Jansdotter for Windham Fabrics was one of the major hits of 2011. And just off the heels of its near-victory in the Fat Quarterly’s Modern Madness comes news of her second collection, Bella. Looks like it’ll debut at Spring Quilt Market, and be available in stores in [...]

I only got to pop my head in briefly at Windham this time, but I just had to go to see Paige Stanley Miller‘s Bon Vivant after seeing her sporting the cape above the day before (why no picture, why, WHY!?). Parisian and French themes were an unexpected trend this market, and Mademoiselle Paige’s interpretation [...]
Country Lane by Bari J. for Windham (Meadow Monarchs print shown above, courtesy Ms. Bari herself) — we’ll definitely be seeing and hearing more about this collection ’round these parts. The very pretty Sonoma by Frachelle Contreras for Henry Glass. She’s got a giveaway going on her blog right now. A trio of new collections [...]
