As I try my best to learn more about this industry of sewing, I think I am slowly getting the hang of things! I wanted to share my favorite Fabric Designers.
In NO particular order.
- Kim Schaefer of Little Quilts Company with Andover Fabrics
- Paula Prass with Michael Miller fabrics and her blog
- Valori Wells see her designs and her blog
Why do I love these designers? I feel they design with a purpose and not just to get fabric out. That what you see, each element, is in its place and not just tossed on. I believe many designers are good at this, but these three stand out for me. Their colors are what I like too. Maybe, it could just be my particular “flavor” right now too. I know as our lives change and grow, so do our preferences, and that is ok!
It’s like women and shoes, I try not to really get “into” fabric too much or I know I’ll be a fabric hoarder! Heehee! Instead, I have fabric through donations, giveaways, and a few purchases, with a purpose; to make a quilt and give it to someone, so they can be wrapped in love.
I thanks these ladies and all fabric designers for their work! As a former career graphic designer, I just enjoy looking at all the awesome work! Fabric designs and quilt patterns!
