At the other end of the spectrum from the Japanese love of soft, subtle neutrals, here is a refreshing collection with true and clear colors. It was impossible to capture the true vibrancy of these colorways, and as always your unique computer setup will show colors that differ somewhat from the actual prints. |
The colors in this fascinating collection change across the 44" crosswise grain. The colorways are bright and exciting, rich and deep -- without being garish. In 2 of the 3 prints and in her first-year collection (available at the bottom of this page) the size of the graphic pattern also changes at the midpoint of the fabric, width-wise. |

The background color of these prints is variegated from selvage to selvage in the colors listed. Note that the Spiral Flora and the Twirlygigs prints below are available in the same colorways. |
The pattern of intersecting lines and circles changes size at the center foldline as well. Not only is this like getting two fabrics, but more importantly the fabric has a myriad of cutting and design possibilities! |
Samplers of 1 piece of each colorway are available above. Note for scale: circle sizes vary from 7/8" in diameter to 3 3/8" in diameter. |

This pattern changes size throughout the layout, not specifically at the centerfold. The various boxed sections which result very cleverly produce a variety of optical illusions. |
Samplers of 1 piece of each colorway are available above. Note for scale: the black spirals vary from 4 1/2" to 10 1/2" in diameter. |
