Tales Of A Fourth Generation Textile Executive: Studioe May Lines In A Nut Shell
Studioe is introducing 12 new lines in May. Without further ado.
O say can you see the newest patriotic line by Studioe called American Anthem? Red, white and blue, stars, stripes, flags and words, this line has it all. This line should be great for all the charity quilts supporting our amazing troops. Go U.S.A.!
Pepper Cory has done it again with her newest Brushstrokes line to complement her ever successful Peppered Cottons and Fancies. We are describing these as stripe-ish textures. 16 new colors make up this line. Fat quarter bundles will also be offered.
Elizabeth Isles is back with a follow up line to the “printed batik” look of Natural Wonders. This line is called By The Sea and it is gorgeous, featuring various sea creatures in a beautiful color story. You have to SEA (sic) it to believe it.
Diane Eichler is following up her ABC Safari line with a numbers line called Count With Me. Oh boy, are the kids going to love this! Special features of this line include a soft book. Like the By The Sea line from Elizabeth Isles, this line features sea themes.
I want to ride my bicycle, I want to ride my bike. Enjoy The Ride is the newest line by Jennifer Brinley. Featuring bicycles and other fun stuff in a soft and colorful palette.
Hopefully by now everyone knows the newest Studioe star designer who created Cheeky Pumpkins. Dt-K Signature is back with a new line called Happy Camper. Enjoy the journey and take a ride through the country in this line filled with lots of different campers and stuff.
Heartsong is the newest line by Whimsies & Wishes. It features Tiffany Blue with lots of other complementary colors like black and grey. This line is truly striking.
Pippa Moon Studio is back with another Asian inspired line called Kimono Garden. Kimono Garden includes beautiful florals and other Asian styled motifs in lovely browns, grays and purples. This line coordinates really well with several of the Peppered Cotton solids.
Studioe has a new 108 inch quilt backing line. Needle and Thread is the name and it is comprised of many colored grounds with needles and thread flowing throughout. Don’t forget that we recently improved the construction of all the Studioe 108″ to 60×60.
Peek-A-Boo is the only 2 ply flannel line being introduced in May. This line is another by Diane Eichler and it is a super cute teddy bear line with the teddies playing peek-a-boo like this little character below.
Small talk by Studioe is the newest sewing/quilting line. It features all your quilting essentials in white, black and beige. This is going to be a quilt shop staple. Depending on how well this line sells will determine if it becomes a basic….my bet is on just that. This line was meant to work together with the Needle & Thread 108 inch quilt backs.
Last, but not least, Small Factory is back with Wings-N-Things. This line features many things that fly like owls, butterflies and birds. Created in a strong palette of dark and rich, almost fluorescent, purples, pinks and oranges.
That’s all she wrote. Hopefully, I piqued your interest. So come see us at the quilt market to see this all for yourself OR contact your sales rep for an appointment for Mid-May. Thanks for your time.
Signing Off!
