Introducing: Spring 2014 from Cotton & Flax

March 27, 2014

Cotton & Flax Spring Catalog

The Spring collection has officially launched! So excited to finally share the new additions to the shop. I’ve added several new pillow designs, including a new size of oblong rectangular pillows. With this collection, I wanted to create some fun new patterns that would blend effortlessly into your beautiful home. The three new pillow designs are available in multiple colorways, which means seven new pillows in the shop! Check out all the new pillows here in the shop.

Every time I do a craft fair or a pop-up shop, I always get asked about cloth napkins. It took a while to get the prototypes just how I wanted them, but the cocktail napkins are finally available in the shop! These little napkins are perfect for casual get-togethers and dinner parties, or even just for afternoon snack.

You’ll still find your favorite coasters, trivets, and tea towels in the shop, too! No changes to those products, but I’ll be adding some new designs and colors in the summertime. I’m a big believer in slow design, which is why I only debut new products a few times a year. Lots of designing, prototyping, sewing, and testing goes into each product before I add it to the shop, which is why I treat every product launch with such excitement – it’s a long time coming!

I was so delighted to work with the talented Laure Joliet on this lookbook – I think she did an amazing job capturing the new pieces! The shoot was so much fun, I love collaborating with friends on projects like these.

Have you visited the shop to see all the new designs? Do you have a favorite design from the new collection? Let me know what you think in the comments!

Recent press

Cotton & Flax blog features

Loved to see these two fun pieces of press this week: a kind mention of my work in Zooey Magazine, and an interview with me on the CB2 blog (where I talk about my favorite room in my home, as well as a low budget decorating tip!)

Cotton & Flax business cards on press

Things have been bustling at Cotton & Flax the past few weeks! So many wholesale orders have been going out the door, I had to have my letterpress tags and business cards reprinted. Laura, who designed and printed my cards and tags, shared this photo of the printing process.

The Spring collection debuts next week, can’t wait to show you the new designs!

Retiring the DNA Pattern

March 11, 2014

DNA Pillows from Cotton & Flax

I’m preparing to add lots of new products to the Cotton & Flax shop this spring, which means it’s time to retire an old favorite pattern: the DNA print. This pattern was inspired by dozens of conversations about genetics with my boyfriend, who studies molecular biology at USC. It’s my abstract take on a form that scientists will be very familiar with.

There are just two DNA pillows left, so snatch them up if you’re captivated by the impossibly small things that influence our lives.

Cotton & Flax for CB2

February 27, 2014

Cotton & Flax plus tea towels for CB2

Remember how things got a bit quiet here on the blog in January? I was working on an exciting wholesale order: a selection of two of my favorite tea towels made for CB2! Check out the navy plus and the linen plus tea towels on the CB2 website (they should be in stores in March!)

Cb2 Santa Monica and CB2 SOHO

Have you shopped at CB2 before? I think of it as the quirky younger sister of Crate and Barrel. I am thrilled to be part of a collection of handmade goods being sold at all CB2 stores this season, which was curated by the folks at Renegade Craft Fair!

Both tea towels are printed with my popular “plus” pattern, and lest you forget, these were all screenprinted by hand. Each tea towel was sewn in my studio, and printed by yours truly.

I have to admit, I’m excited to see Cotton & Flax products on the glossy page of a CB2 catalog. If you live nearby one of their stores, stop by CB2 and check out the collection, and tell me what you think! I hope you love the handmade collection as much as I do, because if it sells out, I think it sends a signal to larger retailers that working with small domestic manufacturers and indie brands is a worthwhile venture!
