I'm so excited to share the absolute deluge of fabrics we have for you today! When you see the bevy of beautiful nautical designs, you'll see that's a fairly accurate description!

Filled with vivid imagery of swirling waves, mermaids, and whales of the deep, The Harbor captures the old man and the sea theme beautifully, recalling nautical tales the likes of Moby Dick and The Odyssey. Yet, while classic in theme, the design certainly has an artful edge, showcasing Alexander Henry's signature style . I think if Ishmael and Odysseus went to a proper tattoo parlor together, they'd surely come out with one of those whales and a mermaid or two after being Lost at Sea! We can't wait to see what you all make with this line. Please feel free to share your pictures in our shop!

Angela Walters invites us to Drift to a tropical island paradise, where the colors of the ocean intertwine with the textures of the villas, creating a soothing atmosphere where you'll cast your worries away. We are loving this new soft palette for Art Gallery Fabrics! We have the collection available in yardage and Fat Quarter Bundles!

On the heels of her wildly popular geek chic debut for Riley Blake, miss Amy Adams returns with Geekly Chic 2! This time she adds in all star sneaks, retro cameras, and watches reminiscent of the Swatch craze! From Blondie to The Bangles, Amy must have had her 80's tunes on repeat while designing this wonderfully retro line. I know many of you will be scrambling to find your old mix tapes, and get ready to take this fabric and, as Devo sings, "whip it...into shape!"

With clean graphic lines, he Henley Studio offers up a modern take on a a traditional seaside group. We are loving the addition of sea-foam green into this Nautical group! In addition to the wonderful anchors, beach houses, and flags, the flocks of seagulls and schools of fish add beautiful movement to this classic style. Head over here for the Free Quilt Project!

For over 30 years, best friends Frog and Toad have warmed the hearts of parents and their children with each new generation. Like many of you, I've fallen in love with this pair all over again as I the storyteller torch has passed on to me. This storied collection will make for sweet quilts, bedding, jammies and accessories to make for sweet dreams - filled with Toad's favorite chocolate chip cookies of course! We have the line available in wovens and flannel!

This new group from Timeless Treasures will have you planning your summer camping trips! It's got me looking forward to campfires, roasted marshmallows, and sleeping Under the Stars.
Of course, this line will be great for picnic quilts to take along, as well as pillowcases, pajamas, and other camping accessories. And of course, you'll need a fun Drawstring Bag for toting around your gear! I like this one featured from Nicole who used a great tutorial from Noodlehead!

While you likely already know April Rhodes for her celebrated sewing patterns, we are excited to welcome her to the world of fabric design. Though I feel as though April Rhodes has designed this new collection just for me, I'm happy to share Arizona with you all! Her fresh take on the American Southwest is nothing sort of perfection, both in composition and in color. We are eagerly awaiting this debut for Art Gallery Fabrics, due out in May.
Now for the fine print! As the name implies, this Limited Edition fabric collection will be printed one time only! So, we are offering it up for pre-sale now to ensure everyone has a chance to scoop some up. Each of the Limited Edition lines consist of 8 fashion and quilting weight cottons, 2 knits, and 1 voile.
Stay tuned for pre-order opportunities for the Limited Edition collections from Sara Lawson and Sew Caroline!
