Spring Sewing

It's  April! So for sewists, it's time for floral prints! We have them in all sorts of incarnations...on cotton or linen, knits or wovens, gigantic motifs or tiny all-overs. We've found some wonderful solids to complement the springtime prints in this collection and beyond. Now is the time to awaken your warm weather sewing mojo so you will have fabulous new outfits when the warm weather arrives!

May Basket 
cotton satin

Who doesn't want a floral dress for the warm seasons? We couldn't resist this print imported from France. Clear Wedgwood blue and light turquoise blossoms emerge from spruce and acid yellow foliage. They are tossed with playful soft magenta and deep spearmint blooms accented with soft charcoal on a white ground. This soft cotton satin will work up beautifully for dress, skirt or top. 
Chloe
cotton voile from france

 

Our supplier called us right away when this fabric came in from France. He knew it was So Sawyer Brook! 100% cotton voile with a subtle woven stripe in the base features a reverse print. Scattered florals emerge as the raspberry pink background is colored in. A truly delicate and feminine fabrication for blouses or dresses.

Severine
cotton satin stretch 

 

We love the sophisticated color palette in this cotton/spandex satin. Stemmed abstract florals are blowing in the wind as they emerge from a soft white ground. Shades of deep raspberry, magenta and plum wine combine with earthy olive and tan. Highlights of periwinkle blue and deep hunter green complete the array. Great weight for skirts, dresses or tops.  

Emerald City 
cotton pique  

 

Soft emerald green waffle pique is the perfect jacket or dress this season. The color is on trend and the cotton fabrication will be comfortable and durable-a great combination. Think skirt, dress, shorts, skort, structured top or jacket.    


Stepping Stones 
cotton satin 

 

Teardrop shapes wind their way down and across the yardage of this print in gentle paths that overlap as they wander. The soft lavender pink ground supports flat stones in cherry/white, lavender, coral pink, cranberry pink, soft tangerine, and earth brown. This off-beat color combination is stunningly attractive and the cotton stretch satin fabrication is perfect for dresses and skirts. View video roll out 

Carley
cotton eyelet from Maggy London 

 

Do a word association with this print and here's what you'll get: delicate, dainty, adorable, darling, precious, summery, cool. The small print is not at all ditzy, but instead carefully planned by the textile designer to reflect a contemporary feminine vibe. Delicate embroidered eyelets dance through the fine cotton base supporting linear groupings of small flowers in spring green, blue violet, turquoise and rosy pink. Great for sundresses, skirts or peasant shirts a la sixties. Maggy London.

Raspberry Treat  
cotton poplin 

 

So basic, so delicious! This wonderful cotton poplin in a rich summer berry color will work up well for shirts or dresses year round.   

Sprinkles
cotton lawn  

  

Adorable dots for spring and summer. � in irregular shaped dots are sprinkled on a soft white cotton lawn base cloth. Cherry pink, shell pink and pale lilac, contrasted by a pale olive on a white base. Great for blouses or dresses with some fullness or underlining. Don't forget the little ones with this print. Also available in blue 

Floribunda
printed linen 

  

Printed linen is one of the classic fabrications for spring/summer. With its high absorbency, linen is comfortable to wear in warmer climates and easily supports grand designs. This large floral print is available in two stunning colorways. It is a mid-weight linen that will work well for dresses, skirts or jackets/tops. View Video rollout to see the glory of this print.
