Joel Dewberry Fabrics




Oh look! I've just found my new favorite textile designer. His name is Joel Dewberry. And his designs are gorgeous. Like really gorgeous. Like I need to order a swatch book gorgeous. You can find his fabrics at these shops.


I know I've mentioned it at least 10 times, but I'll say it again: I adore pretty fabric. Textiles are probably my very favorite graphic design application. When asked what I want to be when I grow up, I still answer "a textile designer".


Okay. I'd better sign off for the day. I need to go have a daydream about designing a line of home products for Target using J. Dewberry fabrics.

That color combo is so unusual and refreshing (aqua and mustard)...delicious....I too am a textile freak. I once managed a textile plant and had a hand in the design. And yes it is just as much fun as you would think.....

Cool fabrics. My background is interior design, but I want to be a textile designer when I grow up too!

How fun to see this. I'm Joel's wife and I have a link to your blog on my blog that I check almost daily because I love your cool finds. I was so excited when I checked today to see that you had discovered my husband's line of fabric. Thanks for sharing it on your site!

I've got a bunch of his stuff and it's great. I have a new company making home and baby stuff with these great fabrics. Hopefully we'll launch our site by May. His fabrics have a great feel and are good quality. He has a new home dec line coming out real soon. I can't wait! Other textile designers I'm love'n right now are...Anna Maria Horner, Erin McMorris and Heather Bailey. These are in addition to Amy Butler, of course. I totally agree with you that fun funky fabrics make my creative juices go crazy!
