newest echino collection






Fabrics from the latest echino collection are now online by volksfaden! More colorways and prints are expected in July but here are some of the fabrics from the first shipment. I have been a fan of the woman who designs the echino collections, Etsuko Furuya, for years so I am always excited to get new fabric of hers in. I love her bold graphic style and obvious sense of humor.

anna maria horner "folksy flannels"




Although summer is just around the corner (hopefully!) I have just added new flannels from Anna Maria Horner's "Folksy Flannels" collection. These are so soft and cozy, they would make great baby blankets, or maybe a super soft wrap for kids after they have spent all day swimming and the evening air is starting to cool down and they need something warm and cozy...the fabrics are even on sale this weekend due to the Free Spirit sale currently going on at volksfaden....
