Continuing our look into digital fabric printing, we have some other excellent examples! As a nod to the digital fabric trend, we created our own brand, ArtWorks. This is a line developed to show off how detailed and realistic the designs are when created with this process.
By using this printing method, we capture the intricacies and subtleties of the original artwork. You could create your own masterpiece using these fabrics as the feature of a quilt, for decorative pillows, or frame them for an instant piece of art! Artworks is our way of bringing the museum to you! Your home gallery awaits!!!
Here are some fabulous examples!!!

These designs are available mid July! I know, we cannot wait either!!!
It’s wonderful to see art in a museum, but it is institutionalised. I don’t like the idea of the artwork as something that requires special conditions. I would like it to be universal.

Admittedly, I enjoy anything and everything with a retro/vintage vibe. I listen to Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin on the regular. I swoon over retro gadgets and home decor when I am […]

It’s almost April. At this time of year, I am impatiently waiting for the sunshine, ocean breeze, the sand under my feet and maybe a icy beverage. We have three distinct collections that will help us through until our daydream of the upcoming beach weather turns to a reality. Even better, these fabric collections are perfect to celebrate that getaway feeling, year-round. What will you make?
A little picnic on the beach is the perfect way to relax…
Charlene Audrey’s Paradise Delights is just what you need to get into the beach groove! Drink umbrellas, fruity beverages along with flowers and a palm tree scenic – aaaahhh.
So much to work with!
Next, we have our bright and fun Jewels of the Sea collection by Christine Graf. Beautifully bold with a soft watercolor styling, this collection has a great balance of blenders and thematic prints along with a picture patch!
This is Pam Damour’s 3-D Star Pillow Pattern – click above to get more info!
Finally, we have Sea Treasures by Charlene Audrey. The natural beauty of seashells are beautifully depicted on these fabrics. Tonal sailboat prints and realistic sand textures coordinate with the picture patches. Wonderful rich browns, blues, and soft cream colors are very home decor friendly, perfect for your cottage by the shore.
Have a lovely nap while listening to the ocean waves…Relax in the back yard…
We hope you love these collections. Look for them in your favorite quilt shop and remember that summer is only a couple of months away!
…The summer wind, came blowin’ in from across the sea
It lingered there to touch your hair and walk with me…
