Damask by Riley Blake
Laura Johnson chose the timeless fabric Damask Medium by Riley Blake from the Basics Collection. The coral-color print contrasted with the navy solid makes for a stunning dress. The artfully stitched monogram in the matching navy thread completes the dress. The lovely sash tied in a bow adds just enough tradition to this modern fabric combination. Riley Blake fabrics are one of sewists’ favorite lines as the collections are color coordinated and color matched, making combining fabrics easy.
While Damask has been a traditional woven fabric pattern for centuries, Riley Blake has taken the pattern and printed it on cotton, giving this time-honored design a brilliant application for today’s sewist. The abundant color and size offerings of the Damask fabric offer endless creative possibilities.
