Today we\u2019re continuing our anniversary week celebration with a special gift for one reader from our friends at Robert Kaufman Fabrics<\/a>! Read all the way to the bottom of this post to find out how you can enter.<\/p>\n

\"Robert<\/a><\/p>\n

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<\/a> 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<\/a>. (And maybe one of these days I’ll get around to designing another one; I certainly have plenty of ideas!)<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

I turned to Kaufman when I needed Essex linen\/cotton<\/a> 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<\/a> and the newer metallics<\/a>. I used the metallic Essex for this Lisette for Butterick B6464 top<\/a> and this customized Liesl + Co. Bistro Dress<\/a>.\u00a0It has just a subtle amount of shine that’s really pretty for summer, especially.<\/p>\n

London Calling<\/a> 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!)<\/p>\n
