Liberty go with the lawn because I’d love to use some of these textiles for furniture. Anything a bit heavier than quilt weight cotton is doable for me. The collection is OUTSTANDING!! Just amazing. Thanks for the post Sew Mama!!!

Lovely! I’m definitely voting for voile here.

Westminster, are you still reading? Please please please put some of these prints in the voiles that Anna Maria Horner and other Kaffe Fassett prints also appear on. People who are serious and halfway knowledgeable about sewing garments are not going to sink their efforts into quilting cottons, no matter how beautiful the fabrics — the drape just isn’t there. These are really beautiful prints; won’t you please give them a longer shelf life and print some on fabrics that garment sewers will love too?

I have some vintage tablecloths that are a sublime brushed cotton–not quite flannel. Every once in a blue moon I’ll find this same hand at a quilt shoppe, but it’s always some hideous colour. I would love to see more lightweight brushed cottons.

These fabrics are so wonderful in colour, my soul is drawn to them. They remind me of a dream. Wow, I have no other words

Oh, I love these! Voile, linen/cotton, silk/cotton and even a lovely rayon would be fabulous. I would say lawn but given that Liberty do such a beautiful tana lawn I can’t see them giving that away.
