cotton prints

if france is the land of the wall decal, the america is the home of the quilt. im sure thats why there are so many great fabric designers in the U.S , because of the popularity of sewing.
hence american readers will be familiar with amy butler's designs, but those in the UK may not,(over here we dont really have quilt shops, etc). take a look at the beautiful designs on display here, i love the way amy uses colour, she has come up with some really original colour combinations. check the website here for great designs, sewing projects, and cool photographs taken by amy's husband.

I live in th UK and have heard of Amy Butler but weep that the fabric isn't easily available here. I would love to make a swishy skirt from some of her fabric.
