Today we’re continuing our anniversary week celebration with a special gift for one reader from our friends at Robert Kaufman Fabrics! Read all the way to the bottom of this post to find out how you can enter.
The folks at Robert Kaufman are so lovely to work with. We’ve always had a natural affinity since they produce so many wonderful apparel fabrics that work really well with our sewing pattern. I often turn to them when I need something specific like chambray or denim. But they produce so many different fabrics–including many fabrics for the apparel industry–that they often surprise me with things I wasn’t expecting to find. I spend a lot of time with their salespeople at Quilt Market, and when I’m not at Market I browse their website to see what’s new. (Like those amazing Sevenberry fabrics I told you about a few weeks ago.) It was natural that I turned to them when I wanted to design my Woodland Clearing fabric collection. (And maybe one of these days I’ll get around to designing another one; I certainly have plenty of ideas!)
To celebrate our 10-year anniversary, Kaufman is offering one lucky winner two 3-yard cuts (or any mix of two fabrics up to six yards) of Essex Linen or their really beautiful London Calling lawn prints.
I turned to Kaufman when I needed Essex linen/cotton for one of our upcoming spring Liesl + Co. patterns. (I’ll introduce you to the new patterns next week!) It’s such a lovely fabric that’s comfortable and softens with wear, and it comes in an amazing range of colors. I also love the Essex cross-dye and the newer metallics. I used the metallic Essex for this Lisette for Butterick B6464 top and this customized Liesl + Co. Bistro Dress. It has just a subtle amount of shine that’s really pretty for summer, especially.
London Calling is a lawn with vibrant prints, perfect for one of our upcoming Oliver + S patterns. This collection features lots of pretty new prints. (Those horses and cherries!)
Today’s drawing is open to residents of the continental United States only. (Sorry to those of you who live outside the US.) To enter to win two three-yard cuts of the fabric of your choice from either of these collections, leave a comment telling us whether you’re more of a prints or solids person. One entry per person, please. We will close comments on this post and choose the winner (with the assistance of random.org) on Friday, March 23 at 9:00 AM ET. The winner will be notified by email.
IMPORTANT: do not check the box to subscribe to comments on this post unless you reside outside the United States. (Remember, for today’s drawing, if you live outside the US you shouldn’t be leaving a comment on this post in the first place.)
Prints! Though the Essex looks lovely too for some comfy basics!
Solids. Easy to mix and match, and to accessorize.
Solids with a little bit of a twist!
I usually like solids with a bit of texture–but those lawn prints are so scrumptious!
Those horses for sure!! 🙂
The butterflies and florals are perfection
Love the linen!
Prints here. I sew mostly for my kids who are still pretty young. Prints are more fun for these types of projects. 🙂
I’m always drawn to prints, but when it comes to sewing, I find I’m usually happier with the finished garment if it’s made in a solid. Takes discipline to move away from the prints though!
I am MOST definitely a ‘prints’ person! I never order the same dish at the restaurant & not a big fan of “Just Vanilla”!! I want ALL the “Flavors” I can get!!!
I am definitely more of a prints person! Solids when needed, but I love really cute prints.
London Calling lawn!!! Beautiful!!! I’m a prints girl!!!❤️
Prints almost all the time!
I really love to mix solids with prints. If I have to choose, I guess it would be solids.
Solids, especially if they have a great texture or sheen!
I love a great print, but need the solids. All of these are beautiful.
I’m typically a solids person for myself, but those horses!
I love prints, thanks!
Oh wow, I would say I mostly gravitate towards solids. But, I am trying to expand my horizons by incorporating more prints, especially when they’re as lovely as the ones you’ve shown.
With four daughters, I love prints!
I have come to realize that while my eye is drawn to prints when they are on the bolt, I really prefer to wear solids. I Adore the Robert Kaufman Essex linens and find them to be lovely to sew with, and the wear!
I’m a prints person most definitely though I’ll admit I love solids too.
I’m a prints person. Thank you!
Ooohhh, love the prints!!!
Prints for sure!

I’m a prints girl, but I am starting to work with more solids as the kids I sew for get older!
Prints. I love the London Calling collection.
Prints but I do like to add a solid to balance things out.
Generally, I’m a solids person, but when I find a print I like, I get REALLY excited.
Small-scale prints, or solids with a texture (linen, waffle pique, velvet) for myself to wear or sew, but i end up sewing mostly solids for my kids. Dd is picky about prints but she loves those!
I’m on the fence with this! I love them both! But I’ll say solids.
Mostly solids…though florals tempt me.
I’d say I’m more of a solids person but some of these prints could make me change my mind!
I like solids, but prints are more fun to sew!
What happy fabric!!! I prefer prints but I usually pair with a solid if I do two or more fabrics. These are great.
I love Liberty of London!! I love the small flower prints. Since spring is trying so hard to get here this year!!!
I’ve always loved their London Calling collections so I’d go with that.
I am drawn to prints because they are so fun, but am starting to do more sewing with solids because they have more staying power in my wardrobe.
I’m usually more of a prints person but I’d love to use the solids to make something for myself!
The London calling prints are so great!
Prints for my daughter but would
Love to try some solids for myself
The lawns are gorgeous!
I’m about 50/50. Solids are great for making everything coordinate, but I love a good print!
I make about half solid and half print outfits when I sew. My favorite fabric is linen because living in the deep south it’s perfect for the hot weather.
Solids for me, prints for the kids
I prefer solids! Thanks for the chance to win.
A subtle print for me
Prints most definitely for the kiddos!
I tend to sew more with prints, although most of the RTW clothes I wear most often are solids.
I usually wear mostly solids, but the prints in the lawn fabric would really help me with my goal of wearing more prints. They’re gorgeous! Bring on the summer weather!
prints or soilds depends on the day! I’ve got 1/2 a wardrobe out of essex linen, though 🙂 love it!
Happy Anniversary! Depend on the project…
I’m more of a prints person, especially with those beautiful prints from the London Calling line!

Equal parts solids and prints!
And I am so happy that we are getting new Oliver + S patterns next week!
Generally I look at prints, but I find the solids way more useful, so would love a chance to win that.
Mostly solids. I’ll only do so much pattern matching in my wardrobe. My four year old will do ALL the pattern matching, so constraining her choices some with a generous dose of solids in her wardrobe helps avoid clothing selection debates.
This is hard! I love prints, especially the cherries and butterflies but those solids also look heavenly. I think I’d have to go with solids this time.
I’m equally drawn to prints and solids. Both options are lovely!
More solids. I love the metallic linens!
I love solids that have that extra little something…like the metallic feature of the Essex .

I love the Essex. It seems so versatile and fun to coordinate.
No questions–London Calling Lawn! I’ve used several of those from previous year collections to make some really beautiful dresses (including a tiered version of the Popover dress my daughter loved so much she wore it multiple times a week!). I can imagine all the summer sewing I’d do with it!
I prefer Prints for my daughter; solids for myself!
Love the solids — especially those metallics!
Prints, and I love to mix them with other prints and solids!
I would love to be a prints person because they are so cheerful, but I only end up wearing solids. The sheen on the metallics is a nice touch of sparkle.

I lean towards solids because it is easier to fit them into my wardrobe, but I am so tempted by prints!

Solids I think 🙂 But prints also 🙂 Thanks and Happy Anniversary
I think it depends… I do love solids but like large scale patterns too. For kids and quilts, I prefer small print. Congrats, O+S for the ten years!

I have been more of a solids person most of my life, but while visiting a fabric shop in Rome in October of 2016, I was overtaken with giddiness at the variety of quality prints I saw!! Then when I returned to Ohio, I was disappointed in the quality of prints from my local fabric stores. I’m on the hunt now, for exciting, multicolored natural fiber fabrics!
PRINTS!!! (There are just too many good ones out there. 🙂 )

I love prints, but I wear more solids, so I am trying to stick with those.
I began sewing at age 11 . . . my first project was a dress matching plaids. From that time on, sewing for myself, I only used solids. When sewing for my only daughter I continued using solids as my primary focus was English smocking and embroidery. But now that I have 3 young granddaughters I am absolutely dying to work with PRINTS. Just purchased my first 10 Oliver+S patterns and can’t wait to get started!
Solids . . . with printed accents! How is that for riding the fence?!?!?
I have some Essex linen and it’s wonderful! I am definitely a lover of solids.
I love floral prints! Love their fabric and have been having fun with my Woodland Clearing stash!
Ugh, I really *ought* to be into solids more; I need to start making matching pieces!
I’m a prints AND solids woman. I love prints but find they can often be overwhelming. So, when planning an outfit I choose mostly solid pieces and highlight just one printed fabric item. That one item may be a blouse, skirt, pant, jacket or handbag while the remaining items will be solid fabric pieces. When choosing fabric, I’m always planning ahead to an entire outfit and cohesive wardrobe.
I am mostly a solid person.
I like prints and I’d love to try some Robert Kaufman fabrics!
