Good morning! Today is my birthday ☺️ I am not saying how old I am so don’t ask. I have decided to celebrate with this stunning Japanese cotton lawn called Lilyanthe in delicate shades of periwinkle and off white

Dobby is a special type of weave that is often used in traditional Japanese clothing. These two new solids nicely accentuate the colors in the print which I have named Grapevine in Indigo. These three are all brand new in the shop from Japan and on the website now. Get inspired and make something

Thank you! 😊

We have received a nice large restock of silk charmeuse in solid color. Here is the range of yellows, greens and blues we processed into our stock today. These are all 100% silk crepe back satin. That means one side has a matte finish and the other side has a satin finish

We got all dressed up to attend a beach wedding today. First up a natural to white linen panel with a beautiful and subtle gradation in the middle. The hand is light and soft and slightly sheer like a handkerchief linen. On the right she wears a new linen jersey knit in white

Denise just brought by this stunning piece of fiber art she made to auction off at a fundraiser for Meals on Wheels called Meals on Heels. Haha. Pattern for the heel is from Fiber Works by Laura Heine #elfriedesfinefabrics

A beautiful selection of new artisan made cotton batik fabrics have made their way onto our website. Here are just a few of my favorites

Yesterday Denver zoo welcomed an endangered reticulated giraffe calf! In honor of his arrival may I present Safari Toile viscose crepe fabric from Italy. Brand new in our shop and online now!

This beautiful collection has just arrived to remind us that spring is on the way. Bee Garden from moda- new in our shop and online as of today.

Burgundy Blossoms never looked so good. Beverly used it in combination with vogue pattern number 9264. Chic, comfortable and beautiful

Will do!

Here is American Rose silk twill. That feeling you get when you smile so much your cheeks hurt, you laugh so much your mascara runs. May you all feel it when you slip into this exquisite designer silk from Emanual Ungaro. The body is divine, soft but firm, nubile and pliable.

With Elfriede on the mend, we are sorry to have to say goodbye to Amara who will return home to Detroit soon. She won’t be going home empty handed though. She made this extraordinary XXXL King size quilt top using batiks entirely from our collection. Look at all those curved seams!

Yesterday we celebrated 51 years in business by checking in a new shipment of European goods. Come and celebrate with us and get an eye full of all the new fabrics including this amazing Mid Century Mod viscose crepe from Italy. In stock and on line now!

Here is something spectacular and unusual. A very crisply printed shirt cotton featuring a wonky Micro Log Cabin. Beautiful up close and interestingly geometric from afar

The first shipment from my trip to New York City arrived this morning. Let’s begin with this smashing silk/metal blend from India called Dancing Pink

Sold out

Today on the dress form we have focused our color palette around this beautiful, looser weave wool blend bouclé plaid. This would make a fun Chanel style jacket. It’s shown paired with a luscious viscose satin from Italy in purple but our stretch silk charmeuse in shocking pink is also perfect

I am relieved to let you know that Elfriede had her knee replacement surgery yesterday and that it went smoothly. She is home now and well tended by her sister from Germany! In the meantime I would like to introduce you to Amara. She will be helping us while Elfriede recuperates from surgery.

Only about 2.5 yards left on this stunning 108” wide cotton called Whimsical Flower Garden in Lime. Selling fast but in stock for now

The sale has started! Enter code LOVE at checkout to take 25% off all wools and all quilt cottons. We wooly wooly love you ❤️

Beat as One silk twill set the color scheme today, taupe with a couple shades of pink. Carnation Pink silk dupioni is a dream to drape with. It pleats and drapes, breaks and falls and glows in the sun. Here it is paired with Pantone’s color of the year Mocha Mousse in billowing silk taffeta.

Valentine’s Day is this coming Friday. Do you have plans? On the left dress form today we have a silk twill with pink and taupe hearts called Beat as One paired with a brushed wool gabardine in taupe. On the right we have two silk dupionis in Carnation Pink and Mocha Mousse

Do you know about Ramie? Also known as grass linen or grasscloth, it’s a natural fiber derived from the stalks of the ramie plant, a member of the nettle family. Known for its strength, durability, and luxurious texture, Ramie is nearly six times stronger than cotton and twice as strong as flax.

Here is something unusual. This is a silk Ribbon Jacquard Chiffon. A ribbon chiffon is one with opaque stripes running parallel to the selvages interspersed with sheer stripes. In this case the opaque stripes also have a jacquard pattern woven in

Agreed. It was disappointing

Don’t leave your joy behind. It’s a powerful tool in the darkness. It will strengthen our resolve and inspire our world to a beauty greater than its ever known. This spectacular ombré floral print arrived yesterday. It is a cotton print from In The Beginning fabrics called Glorious Garden in Warm
