I’ve just discovered Spoonflower and am already dreaming up a line of Material Girl’s fabrics! MG girls – are you in? Now I know where to turn to when I just can’t find the perfect color, the right pattern, or some odd request for something – that’s just not out there!

Spoonflower lets you print fabric from designs you upload to your own account on our web site.

All your designs are private unless you choose to make them public.

There is no minimum fabric order and no set-up fee. You can order a swatch for $5, a fat quarter for $11, or multiple yards at $18 each. Registration is free.

At the moment, fabric choice is limited to 100% Bella™ cotton from Moda™, a maker of very high quality fabrics for quilting.

Spoonflower is based in Mebane, North Carolina, but ship all over the world.

I’ve always been a fan of Lulu de Kwiatkowski’s line of fabrics and wallcoverings (see Lulu DK ).

Now she has a book out! It’s title is: LULU and it is a monograph of colorful, dreamlike, and autobiographical handmade collages. Lulu is also a prolific fine artist with an extensive body of work that has never before been published. Lulu’s artwork draws inspiration from her unique experiences, as well as from her travels all over the world. Lulu’s original multi-media collages combine painting, drawing, photography, and writing.

With a background in painting, textile design, and the decorative arts, Lulu’s work blends depictions of flora and fauna, with geometric studies of pattern and color. Memories often appear in the form of hand written text, as well as in portraits of herself and her family members.

These images are a glimpse from the book which is also available on Amazon or bookstores. Great coffee table book!

Thought I’d share some beautiful new fabric collections from “Classic Cloth” (a ‘to the trade’ fabric manufacture).

Each collection has a story:
