MoMo Freebird




Fabrics from MoMo's newest collection "Freebird" have just been unpacked. The main print is brimming with butterflies, dots and birds (as you can see above) and the other print we have in now, is a retro floral in three different colorways. You can see the two prints in the different colorways online now at volksfaden.

Pictured on top are new cloth covered buttons that are just being put online now. They are covered with 100% organic cotton fabrics from our organic cotton collections.

Always on the lookout for sustainable notions, I also found these colorful buttons recently. They are made from 100% recycled cellulose.

And last but not least, new buttons from repeatstudio have arrived all the way form Ontario, Canada. These cloth buttons are printed on hemp/organic cotton fabric with solvent free ink.

Black & White





For the Black & White lovers out there, we have a few new black & whites prints to be found in the Black & White category by volksfaden....

Jillian Phillips




Cute fabrics from UK designer Jillian Phillips have also been put online this weekend. (They can be found in the "Hoffman Fabrics" category) Most of the fabrics are suitable for little guys as well as little gals...I do try and keep an eye open for fabric suitable for boys clothing, so I was happy to find these animal and robot prints from Phillips for Hoffman fabrics.

Cloud9 Beyond the Sea





New GOTS certified organic cottons from Cloud9 are now on the virtual shelves at volksfaden. These are fabrics from their second collection, "Beyond the Sea". I like the fact that the color scheme from the first collection "My Happy Garden" has been carried through on into this collection, so they can be happily combined! Their next collection is already in the works and debuts this weekend at the Quilt Market in Minneapolis.

The next few days will be spent with my scanner and computer....I will be putting new fabrics online all weekend....the first new fabrics online are the farbenmix fabrics. Sabine and Janina, the lovely ladies behind farbenmix, asked four of their designers to design a fabric for their first designer collection. The fabrics are 140cm wide and a light poplin, perfect for cute summer dresses for gals or cool shirts for little guys....
