Clay McLaurin Textiles

Breaking news...I have a new fabric line crush. And I'm pretty sure you're going to love it too. Behold Clay McLaurin Studio textiles, a boutique collection of printed fabrics. The patterns and designs are simple but fresh and are produced in really lovely colorways. Printed right here in the USA, each design seems to have one or two ground options including 100% Belgian linen, 100% cotton, and a cotton + linen blend.

Clay, one of the founders, is an artist and paints each design. There is definitely an organic/modern vibe going on, however, the aesthetic is very versatile and I can imagine these fabrics in lots of spaces. For instance, Elena in Peony would be so stinkin' cute in a little girl's room and Wave in Midnight would be awesome in a study.

Have a look at a few of my favorites:

Elena - Wave

Brush - Bleeding Heart

Medallion - Elena

Wandering Stripe - Manji

If you're loving their goods like I am, be sure to follow their latest happenings and see more photos on the Clay McLaurin Studio Facebook page. Purchasing inquiries can be directed to the studio or if you live in or around Atlanta, the line is represented at Ainsworth-Noah, & Associates.

Fab Fabrics - textiles bycasey

I am completely infatuated with textiles bycasey, a new line of fabric created by artist Casey Dalene. I stumbled upon them thanks to the top-notch fabric pin boards created by the lovely ladies of Co-Lab.

Casey's five amazing hand-painted designs are printed in seven colors on either ivory or white 100% Belgian linen. The patterns are fresh and a bit playful, though they are quite transitional in style especially because of the neutral colorways.

To me, Basket Weave Sketch and Herringbone Sketch are PERFECT for hardworking sofas because the understated patterns are stylish and provide just enough variation to mask stains.

I honestly love all of the designs, but I think that the Dry Brush Circles is my favorite because it's graphic, bold, and painterly all at the same time. I want it in Pure Black and Cobblestone...

The Dry Brush Stripe is a really cool look too. It would make gorgeous curtains and I could also see it used on the bias to make diagonal stripe pillows...

And speaking of pillows, in the Homegoods section of the site, Casey offers custom pillows in all of the fabric options for those of you who want some instant gratification!

Here's an 18x18" pillow in the Dry Brush Squares...

And in Dry Brush Circles...

Are you loving Casey's designs as much as I am? Any favorite patterns or colors?

I have lots of ideas on how and where to put these prints to work and I'm pretty pumped to place an order! I'm thinking about using some in my own house so I'll keep you posted on that.
