March Book Club Meeting

Please join us for our March Book Club Meeting! We’ll be discussing Modern Fabric: Twenty-Five Designers on Their Inspiration and Craft by Abby Gilchrist and Amelia Poole. (Note: We had originally selected Threads of Life by Claire Hunter, but that was our March 2020 selection.)

Modern Fabric allows us to step inside the studios of today’s modern fabric design stars from around the world. It features a sophisticated, eclectic group of designers working in an exciting variety of techniques, from the bold florals of Kaffe Fassett to the subtle patterning of Naomi Ito to the retro style of design collective Ruby Star Society. Engaging essays explore each designer’s life in textiles: education, design beginnings, creative process, dreams, and how they run their businesses. Hundreds of color photographs offer endless inspiration, showing studio spaces, processes, textile samples, and products made from the gorgeous fabrics featured in the book. Modern Fabric is an ideal resource for sewers, quilters, crafters, designers, and all those who aspire to a fun, color-filled, modern lifestyle.
