Strawberry-print fabric?

11 years ago LINKSarvi @Sarvi
Have you got a favorite you’ve seen around lately? There’ve been some signs of impending strawberry picking season and I want to get a jumpstart on a new dress.
11 years ago LINKbeachmom @beachmomI personally like the Sandi Henderson Meadowsweet strawberry fields print.:)
11 years ago LINKMama_Knowles @Mama_KnowlesI seen this over here, http://www.hawthornethreads.com/fabric/designer/creative_thursday/locally_grown/wild_strawberries_in_natural
I would love to use it for a dress for Sarah. She loves, loves strawberries!
11 years ago LINKsarahb @sarahbThe Meadowsweet Strawberry Fields is a favorite of mine still too, maybe you could find some still! I used one color way for a special dress a few years ago.
11 years ago LINKdubhels2003 @dubhels2003I’m a sucker for this, which in part is because I had a sundress my mum made for me in something pretty much identical. Plus this is very cheap. I think I’m going to have to buy some now, though our strawberry season is months away. Thank you Sarvi!
(Apologies if the link doesn’t work, I’m not quite sure how to make it happen on husband’s mac…)
11 years ago LINKmkhs @mkhsAlewives Fabrics usually has some nice strawberry prints. Right now I see this one http://www.alewivesfabrics.com/fabrics%3Fcat_id%3D68?cat_id=11&prod_id=1986
and this one http://www.alewivesfabrics.com/fabrics?cat_id=105&prod_id=3466
I have some of that Sandi Henderson strawberry fabric in cream, and I have to say I prefer the pink colorway.
And, of course, Liberty has beautiful strawberry prints if that’s in the budget!
11 years ago LINKBrittney @georgeandizzyI just picked this one up locally a few weeks ago: http://www.fabric.com/ProductDetail.aspx?ProductID=9956f480-64c4-4fa1-8d4e-16aa3df9f694
11 years ago LINKReeni @ReeniI made daughter a Valentine dress that was (Gasp!) not pink but had strawberries all over.

The fabric is actually mostly green, flannel so suitable for a cold/unpredictable-weather dress… “Strawbeary” by Kym Bowles for Marcus Brothers Textiles, Inc. according to the selvege, but it doesn’t come up in a Google search. (I still have about 3 yards of it, if you like…)
11 years ago LINKSarvi @SarviWow, such a variety and all awesome — thank you so much, ladies!
mkhs, Liberty is not in the budget but can definitely be on the wishlist!
11 years ago LINKmkhs @mkhsOh, it’s never in my budget, either– but one can dream! I do have two old pieces of tana lawn given to me by a friend of my mother’s, and I dole them out in tiny pieces.
11 years ago LINKmeleliza @melelizaHeath Ross’s new line features wonderful strawberries in quilting cotton and knit!
11 years ago LINKSarvi @SarviYes, I just got a charm pack and have been admiring the strawberries especially.
11 years ago LINKcoming-up-roses @coming-up-rosesIs this too modern? I made my little girl a summer dress with this Hoodie fabric last Summer and she looked adorable in it.
(sorry for the long link..could find a better one and this one seems to be a laminate…)
11 years ago LINKSarvi @SarviThank you! I actually just bought some laminate for next year’s raincoat, but wow, that is a really incredible selection that they have! I wish the prices were a bit lower, but they have laminates I have not seen anywhere else!
11 years ago LINKSarahGreen @moonglowmamaI picked up some cute Cath Kidston strawberry fabric on a blue background while in London. I am thinking of doing a summery Sunday Brunch with it.
