From Cotton + Steel:
Melody is well known for her vintage-inspired fabric designs. This new collection for Spring 2015 is called Picnic. On her selvedge, Melody included an illustration of an ant telling her friend “I sewed something pretty for you!” Sewers who enjoy adding selvedges to their projects can include this segment on gifts for family and friends.
Picnic includes a whimsical lineup of picnic baskets, colorful apples, big painterly roses, vintage enamel flowers, and prints that reference picnic blankets and marching ants. The group also includes two lawn prints called Sunday Dress that are perfect for garments.
The two canvas prints in this group are additional versions of the picnic baskets and the apples, with the apples appearing on a larger scale. These prints will make perfect pillows, bags, kitchen decor, and accessories.
Picnic was designed to coordinate well with the other Cotton+Steel collections, including both 2014 collections and our basics. These prints are suitable for not only quilting, but apparel, accessories, and home decor.
