New Kokka Echino Prints on the way!

I wanted to do a quick post to feature a few new Kokka Echino fabrics.  These fabrics have been some of my most popular choices for wet bags, hanging laundry bags and cloth diapering items.  So without further adieu, here they are....

This one is called Cars and it has a natural cute little car on a navy background.  It is a cotton canvas, so it will make a nice heavy duty wet bag or hanging laundry bag.  Look for it soon in my shop

This one is my favorite because it is elephants!  Lime and purple elephants romping around on a natural background.
lightweight cotton oxford canvas, will also make great bags.

Songbirds are a favorite recurring theme in Etsuko Furuya's designs.  The teal and purple/pink flowers and brown and lime birds are so beautiful.  This is a great linen cotton blend fabric.  This one is also already in my shop with a brown background and orange flowers.

I have also ordered the premier prints zigzag in some other colors.  This bag has been very popular in my shop, so I have decided to add a few more colors.  This fabric is available in several color patterns, so please feel free to convo me through my etsy shop or comment below if you are looking for any other colors.

The colors I have ordered are

RED and WHITE

and LIME and WHITE

These zig zag pattern chevron prints are really beautiful and add such a nice touch to any nursery room

My Adventure With Japanese Designer Fabrics ~

This year I have started selling a line of Japanese linen and cotton blend designer fabric wet bags.

I love how this all came about... I took my friend Anny shopping one day at Sarah's ~ my favorite local fabric store.  They have the most amazing fabric selection that I have ever seen.  It is sometimes hard to shop there, as their selection is so vast and there are so many choices.  I have always admired the Japanese Echino fabrics by Etsuko Furuya from afar, but had never purchased any mainly because it's expensive.  Well in the whole store full of fabric, this is what Anny liked the best for her bags.  My fabric spidey sense was definitely going off, and I knew this fabric was going to make beautiful bags.  With great difficulty we narrowed it down to the "Birds and Floral" print.  I also loved the "Floral Savannah" print and decided to make two of each bag and try them out in my shop.

Well Anny loved her bags, and I have sold more of these prints than any other fabric so far this year!  I have enjoyed working with it so much that I have added several more choices from Etsuko Furuya and also a few I really liked from Melody Miller.  The base fabrics in this line are top quality, and the colors are crisp and vibrant.  The linen blend makes it a really good choice for wet bags, as it is a very durable fabric and will withstand the multiple washings well.



All in all I am so thankful to Anny for selecting this fabric, as it is beautiful to look at, as well as a pleasure to sew and each bag has turned out simply beautiful.
