There are so many fabric lines available today (both retail and trade only) it is almost impossible to keep up.  I stumbled upon this amazing line thanks to a customer who needed pricing on a particular pattern.  After obtaining this information, I took the time to look at the collection for myself and instantly fell in love.

While these patterns are not trendy or cutting edge (the designer credits “Cotswold countryside” as her inspiration), I love the sweet and homey vibe and the relaxing color palate.  I am a sucker for birds and am loving the yellow and charcoal tones used below.  I could see this in a gender neutral nursery, a relaxing sun room, or a cozy guest retreat.

Meadow Collection

You may recall that I have a bird inspired wallpaper planned for the ceiling in my son’s nursery once we move.  So, it should not surprise you that I am particularly drawn to this collection with a similar feel.  In fact, I’ve purchased some light blue gingham fabric for the room (planning to use it as one of the crib bumper sides or perhaps for accent pillows)….and am wondering if these might coordinate.  Perhaps I could paper back this fabric and use on the ceiling as well as on the reverse of the bumper?  The possibilities are endless!  A full range of coordinating ginghams are featured in this line as well.

Sky Collection

And I love the colors in this print from the “Meadow” Collection….
