This week we restocked our Bark Cloth<\/a> department, which has been empty for many years, but now our suppliers are offering this vintage textured cloth again and I am thrilled! The origins of this type of fabric are actually from the bark of trees, but now it has a pebble-like texture that mimics the texture of bark.<\/p>\n

Bark Cloth<\/a> was very popular in the Fifties and Sixties, with motifs ranging from The Atomic Age to Tropical Florals and Foliage. TV shows like Mad Men helped to rekindle the popularity of these fabrics, and now another generation is rediscovering Bark Cloth<\/a> for Home Dec and Fashion Sewing.<\/p>\n

Today I picked my first tomato from my garden, which is always a celebration! I plant more basil every year but it is never enough. Sunday I am going to the screening of the Bollywood classic ‘Devdas’ ….lots of fantastic singing and dancing…costumes, colors and FABRIC! If it is playing on the big screen in your area, I urge you to go!<\/p>\n

Photos of Sacred Threads quilts will be included in my power point presentation “International Quilt Trends” at the San Jose Museum of Quilts & Textiles<\/a> on July 30. Hope to see you there!<\/p>\n
