CWD TEXTILES PREVIEW: 1,2,3...

I've already shown you 2 of the 3 fabrics in the Fleur Chinoise I collection, so today I'd like to show you the last and give a bit of background. First off, I've designed the fabrics in mini collections for easy pairing.  Basically, each Fleur Chinoise colorway has 2-5 patterns that correspond. This makes it easy to create your own set of pillows or fabrics and be sure that the colors will match. I worked hard on these collections for months, trying to arrive at the right pattern combinations, scale, and colors. To create balance, I created a larger, smaller and medium scale patterns in each mini collection.  Case in point...

The new pattern is called Souk in navy on off-white linen cotton. 

CWD TEXTILES will not be available for complete viewing & purchase until October, when they will be for sale only on my retail website. Thanks so much for your emails & excitement !

    I honestly adore this. In the photo the fabric looks black and I would love it to be black and coral... I also love navy. Will the be available online? Do you sell them in Portugal? I will love to see more colors!
    Congratulations for being so inspiring.
