Sewing Pattern + Fabric Pick

Share |

Any great sewing project requires two basic things: a pattern and an inspiring fabric print. It's always fun when a fabric designer comes up with patterns to use with their own fabrics. I love Anna Maria Horner fabrics, and I like this tunic dress she designed. As you can see by the image of the pattern, it really is extremely simple, just proving that don't need to be a professional to make a dress. Click here for more.

The fabric she uses is from a very popular collection of hers that can be hard to come by, but I think any large floral fabric would look great. Here's what I recommend:

This chic lavender art deco poppy floral fabric will add a little Art Deco style to your next craft project. We love the combination of white poppy floral blossoms on a lavender purple cotton background in this floral fabric inspired by both Asian and Art Deco design. 

This gray, gold, & pink daisy floral fabric will add bright style any room in the house. We love the mix of neutral and colorful hues in this daisy floral pattern. Dark gray, warm gold and bright pink flowers rest on a light gray cotton background in this floral fabric. The mix of colors make this floral pattern easy to coordinate. 


This pink floral silhouette fabric will add style any room in the house. We love the mix of bright colors in this chic floral pattern. Light pink floral blossoms rest on a hot pink cotton background in this floral fabric. The silhouettes give this fabric a modern flair.
