Cozumel
poly spandex jersey
Lots of color at the ready! This very large print is subdued by the overall nature of the design. One realistic outlined floral in ocean green is lost in a profusion of bright fuchsia, burnt orange, rich aqua and deep ocean. Black and bronze spattered splotches are scattered throughout adding depth to the print. This stretchy ITY knit is the right choice for tops or dresses. Poly/spandex.

We love a sketched print. The whimsical shape of the sun and the houses gives a casual feel to the print. Random splotches in pale gray offset the child-like drawings. Soft cotton lawn falls beautifully from shoulder or waist for blouses, dresses or skirts..

Thick/thin yarns give a textured look and feel to this all cotton print. Dainty realistic florals in raspberry red combine with sandy foliage faintly accented with dark raspberry. These small blossoms dart across the ecru ground in playful disarray. Dresses, skirts and tops will make up well in this slightly crisp cotton fabrication.

A labyrinth formed by hot pink 1/4 in wide lines and angles winds its way over a soft white base. Pink and white are a great combination for summer blouses, dresses or skirts. Add a bit of black with your accessories and you are right on trend. This cotton/linen fabric is slightly crisp, working best for silhouettes with a bit of structure such as a camp shirt or a fit and flare dress.

Delicate linen in a light weight that is just right for blouses. This is more than hanky but less than mid-weight. It is ideal for summer wardrobes. Don't go into summer without a fresh white linen!
|
|
This is the ultimate color for linen-natural. It is so versatile for all your linen looks. It also makes a wonderful canvas for embellishment--embroidery, cross-stitch, applique, couching, stamping, stenciling. There is no end to its adaptability. The mid-weight is right for separates and dresses.

Exquisitely fine shirting for that dressed up look. Perfect for client days at the office or casual elegance. Although a year round shirting, 100% cotton poplin is particularly comfortable in warm weather. It is crisp but breathable and stands up to the moisture of summer. Imported from Italy. 60 in.

Walker LA
A recent project for a prom dress using the dress worn by Taylor Swift for inspiration. The Elvira Scuba Knit was a wonderful fabric to use for the top & mini skirt. The top long skirt was made with Duchess Satin.
