Bright Heart by Amy Butler is IN!!!

 

 

Bright Heart, the latest collection from Amy Butler is now in the shop and online the Quilting Cottons are only $9.75/yd! This beautiful array of prints is more inspired work from one of our favorite designers and dearest friends in the quilting world! Amy's designs usually stem from her fabulous travels around the world and we couldn't be more happy with the colors and patterns coming through her these days!

 

 

3 enticing and rich colorways in Quilting Cottons, Sateens & Voiles! They work beautifully mixed and matched together or within their own palette! Jewel tones continue to be a running theme in her color choices which makes her past collections perfect for working with these new fabrics!

 

How magical is this half square triangle quilt in emerald and jade tones?? You can totally create a stunning design from a minimal amount of prints!

 

Loving this new pouf design Amy created! Looks like excellent extra seating for a bohemian living room or a lounge area!

 

 Even if your décor is ultra modern, this bright and & bohemian collection can add just the right touch of warmth without looking out of place!

 

Pretty throw pillows, pieced or plain are a great way to add some color to your neutral sofa or bed!

 

And how gorgeous are the Voiles in this line?? Rich colors like these can easily be worn into the cooler Fall months with  the addition of warmer layers!

 

Basically, Bright Hearth is another home run from Amy Butler! We just love how the creative juices are flowing from her these days! Check out this video below to see her talk more about her inspiration for this collection and some of her fun new projects!

Get Romantic with Flora from Joel Dewberry!

 

Joel Dewberry is one of our longtime favorites for modern prints that will make a living space pop and standout in a wardrobe. His latest collection, Flora is no exception...fresh, lovely and perfect for Spring! Get inspired with these fabulous FREE PROJECTS designed especially for this collection. Like these Vine of Roses & Tip Toe Through the Tulips Pillows which are simple, yet interesting designs that add a refreshing dose of color to a neutral couch!

 

 

 

 

Or this bright and graphic Stepping Stones Quilt...an amazing addition to the end of your bed or in place of a headboard! I've been noticing lots and lots of pretty textile art being used as creative headboards and quilts take the cake as my favorite option! Imagine how pretty this would be with an all white bed set...save a few handmade matching pillows. ;)

 

 

 

 

This Patchwork Pillow is a little more basic but still, in these fabrics it makes a great statement. It adds so much warmth to that white sofa too, don't you think? And I dig that bit of a boho vibe that patchwork in bright and bold prints always gives me. Like in that ONE bedroom everyone on facebook DIED over. So good.

 

 

 

Another fabulous quilt design, the Floral Dance Quilt reminds me of abstract art or an optical illusion. And with that mod border, it really takes on a groovy vibe!

 

 

 

 

Who doesn't need a new "every day" bag? This Pocket Tote is a spacious design for when you're out running errands, commuting with the kids or you have a long day of gym, work, happy hour ahead of you. Bring your extras along in style...I think it would look incredible with the whole body of the bag in that graphic Aztec print and going for dark brown leather straps. You could repurpose some old belts (first learned that trick from Amy Butler), or you visit your local Tandy or leather crafting store. You can find small pieces in reasonable prices. Just make sure you get a needle for leather to sew it using your machine!

 

 

 

 

Speaking of Amy Butler, I found a few more projects that she designed for Violette that I wanted to share! The Around the World Pillow is an awesome accent to any living space. Use it as a floor pillow, extra seating for a party or even use it as a dog bed.

 

 

 

City Squares is a cool graphic quilt that looks incredible in jewel tones and white! I wonder if the lighter prints in the collection would look good with a gray background...

 

 

 

How cool is this Woven Pillow? This is a super cool statement piece and an awesome project to add to your archives! Imagine what you could do with a gradient of solids! Make this baby and add some serious handmade magic to your home.

 

 

Inspired yet? Make one of these awesome FREE projects or come up with your own design for these pretty ew collection! Happy Sewing!

 



Celebrate Spring with Violette by Amy Butler!

 

 

Currently on it's way to our shop...Amy Butler's latest victory! I'm not exaggerating when I say I think Violette is some of Amy's most inspired work! The colors and intricacies of her patterns in this collection remind me of when her fabrics first hit the markets and all you could think is that you'd never seen something like this before. While the essence of these fabrics still has a immediately identifiable Amy vibe, they still seem like something SO new and wonderful from her! I am just in awe!! GO GIRL!!

 

 

 

 

The colors and diversity in the patterns is totally refreshing and there's a perfect balance of eclectic, bohemian feels with feminine poise! I just think this would be a DREAM to redo a bedroom in. Start with painting your room a nice gray, light mauve or lavender for something subtle...pick one of the brighter colors for some punch or keep walls a clean white and let the fabric do the talking. Then create some new bedding, curtains and throw pillows! This line definitely screams new, fresh...totally Spring and Summer yet with all of those jewel tones and neutrals, I think I'd feel right at home surrounded by these prints all year! Especially with a stunning new quilt or duvet cover!

 

 

 

Can we talk for a minute about the Square Dance quilt? I don't know if I've seen a prettier one in a long while. It's totally a combination of just how gorgeous these prints are and the quilt design itself  isn't doing a thing to these fabrics except making them look their absolute BEST! I just love it. No other way to describe it. And what I love the most about it is it's FREE. Thank you Amy, thank you! Update your bedroom starting with this fabulous centerpiece!

DOWNLOAD THE PATTERN HERE!

 

 

 

Don't forget to shop Amy's Patterns for even more creative ways to use these fabrics. Everything from bohemian garments to cool bags to perfect pillows to accent your space!

 

 

Now check out this fabulous video from Fall Quilt Market in Houston last year as Amy shows you around her prize winning booth! Her concepts are always so beyond dreamy! I seriously want to LIVE in an Amy Butler Market booth one day, just sayin'...

 

 

We hope you love this line as much as we do! There are so many beautiful ways to use Violette and we can't wait to see what you create! Order your favorite prints today and we'll ship them out to you as soon as they arrive!

Happy Sewing!

Hapi by Amy Butler is Here!!!

 

Hapi, the latest collection from Amy Butler is finally here and in our shop!! Now, Amy's prints and patterns are always inspired and beautiful...but something about her current creative mojo has my heart singing oh so loudly!! This grouping of gorgeous florals, varied geometrics and large scale lookers that Amy is famous for is THE LINE for creating Spring & Summer time wardrobe additions OR fabulous and fresh new bedding for your bedroom oasis!

 

 

Here's what Amy had to say about her latest collection!

 

"Hapi is my love story. It's all about the feelings & inspiration I returned home with after my travels to Egypt. Hapi is the Egyptian god of the Nile and is all about creation and moving forward, exemplifying the process of life. My Hapi is the pure expression of the idea of flow and creativity that we all posses, flowing from our hearts and our hands. I loved creating these prints and you'll find that Hapi has a deliciously uninhibited ethnic vibe with graphic and kitch print combinations and layers of options for print play anchored in rich color. The palettes are a joyful mix of lush, sun bright colors and deep hues that dance together throughout the collection. It's my hope that it captures your imagination and inspires you to create from your heart and have fun!" - XO Amy

 

I'm just about dead over the HAPI FREE QUILT PATTERN she designed for this collection! I love when things get a little wonky and chaotic, and with all of these gorgeous fabrics, the mish-mash reads bohemian chic to the max!

 

 

 

She's even included a few of her beautiful prints in Voile! This light and breezy substrate is perfect for creating caftans and gypsy pants, beachy cover-ups, lovely & lightweight Slips for hot nights out and everyone could use a beautiful new Infinity Scarf in one of these prints! (Check out the DIY we shared to make one here!) Create one for yourself to test out your skills then make one for a Mother's Day gift!

 

 

We're also pretty gaga over Amy's Decorator Linens! They're fabulous for curtains, throw pillows and floor cushions! If you have the Gum Drop Pillow pattern, this is the fabric you've been waiting for to make it with! Create one small and one large for a fun and varied look!
