Well, here it is, my second fabric collection.
I don't think it's up on their website yet, but it will be available from Windham Fabrics this spring. If you have a shop, speak to your rep now to order it.
As the name implies, it is inspired by elements you'd find in and around an imaginary royal kingdom. I kept with my favorite Art Nouveau influences, but this time it's a bit more playful and bright.
These swatches are not to scale, but they do give you a decent look at the designs and colors.
The prints and color names are as follows, clockwise from top left: Tapestry in Deep Amethyst, Moat in Pewter, Moat in Amethyst, Garden Gems in Deep Amethyst, Tuffet in Opal, Posy in Deep Amethyst, Crowns in Amethyst, Castle Wall in Pewter, and (center) Tuffet in Deep Amethyst.
Clockwise from top left: Moat in Peridot, Moat in Aquamarine, Tapestry in Pewter, Castle Wall in Topaz, Posy in Peridot, Posy in Opal, Crowns in Pewter, Tuffet in Peridot, Garden Gems in Peridot, Moat in Topaz, and (center) Tuffet in Topaz.
And this is a look at the planned free quilt pattern in two colorways. I still don't have any sample yardage, so you know things might change when I get my hands on actual fabric....
Yes, it took me a long time. I was busy with other soon-to-be-named projects, but, can I just say, it is hard to follow-up a first successful collection. I feel like people have developed their own image of my style and I'm destined to let them down. So here's hoping you all like it!

Jessica, this is awesome! I hope you'll bring some to show us at the Quilt Guild when you get sample yardage in! I love the quilt patterns too, especially the second one. It looks like a stained glass window.

Hi Andrew.
Yes, I will bring some to the next meeting. Id better have it by then.
Im glad you said the quilt looks like stained glass cause that was the plan. I think Im calling it Prairie Glass. But, oh, those 1/2 strips are going to be a pain to sew accurately!
thanx.

Way to go, Jess! I knew you had to be up to something... I am in awe of the Silk colorway. If you need a volunteer to "play" with your fabric, just let me know!
