Made to Measure Quilts

Do you sell any Toile fabrics suitable for Quilts?

Vanessa designed a contemporary toile which is called For the Love of Rose. This depicts figures and landscapes on a natural cream linen background. This toile design comes in 4 beautiful colourways, from the Dove and Charcoal greys, to the ever popular Clay and Damson, the bold Saffron and Charcoal, and the softer Dusky Pink and Whippet.

For the Love of Rose makes for a beautiful Quilt, with its illustrative design is perfect for children's room, cottages, country homes and shepherds huts.

A 'Toile de Jouy' is traditionally a type of printed calico with a characteristic floral, figure, or landscape design on a light background, and translates literally to ‘cloth from the town of Jouy’. Floral and pretty toile fabrics fit perfectly with the notion of the English countryside.

What inspired the Toile print fabric?

This romantic English toile fabric was inspired by Vanessa's daughter, Rose, who drew pictures of a goat trying to reach up to eat the last green leaves on a tree, alongside a bohemian couple living a simpler way of life from the land. She was also inspired by her other daughter, Flora, whose passion for a simpler way of living and the permaculture project she has introduced into their garden, helped create a wonderful story for this beautiful design 

For the Love of Rose fills up the whole width of the fabric and is printed in the UK and sold in increments of 10cm (50cm minimum order), and can be bought online through our website, and also through our Cirencester shop.

What can your toile upholstery fabric be used for?

This toile is printed on 100% linen and can be used for curtains, blinds, upholstery and all soft furnishings. The design particularly suits lovely long curtains, especially lined and interlined. Equally the story filling the full width of the fabric makes for really lovely blinds and lampshades, both lending themselves nicely to the horizontal design.

The fabrics that coordinate with this lovely toile are Pretty Maids, Gypsy Garland, Leaf Dance, and Stockholm Stripe. These designs were all conceived at the same time and sit next to each other very comfortably in any room.

Please ask for fabric samples and see the colours in your rooms. If you order a half metre returnable sample you can drape them over your existing soft furnishings, or just in situ to where the fabric will go, and see how it looks.
