Sneak peek | Brrr!

When I got my samples of Brrr! a few weeks ago, I simply could not wait to share them with you. It's an early look because the line won't start shipping until June 2012, but I am so excited to show you the wee little polar bears!! I hope you love them as much as I do.

The colors are really more 'winter-ey' instead of 'Christmas-ey'. Which is exactly how I had hoped they would turn out. I really love working with the entire team at Kaufman and the design team is absolutely no exception. They are simply amazing, especially around collaborating with me on color. And they really know how to size  prints so they really come together just perfectly. I feel so fortunate to have such a wonderful partnership with them. And I am just beside myself with excitement over how this collection turned out. There's a salmon color that's part of both the red and blue color stories which is so yummy I could eat it. I hope you will find lots and lots of projects to make with Brrr! For myself, I see some great lap quilts for snuggling under, a bathrobe and PJs (of course!)

  8. I can't wait!! As a child, I did umpteen doily crafts and that's exactly what I thought about when I first saw the overlapping, lacy snowflake print. The polar bears popping up in the circle 'windows' are adorable and the dotty/stripe stripes are super fun. Fab new line, Laurie!!
