Renowned illustrator, crafter, and blogger Heather Ross is beloved for her whimsical illustrations and quick and easy sewing patterns. With two STC Craft books under her belt: Weekend Sewing (now also in paperback!) and Heather Ross Prints, and a third on the way, it's obvious that we just can't get enough of her sweet and covetable designs either.

So we were delighted to hear that her new seasonal fabric collection, Briar Rose, is being celebrated this week at Purl Soho! A collaboration with Windham Fabrics, the lightweight quilting cottons were inspired by Heather's love of summer, the buzzing of bees and chirping of crickets, muddy puddles, and snuggly handmade quilts on chilly June nights.

Featuring fabric packs of different sizes and signed limited editions of her wild strawberry prints, the event will be chock-full of inspiration for your summertime projects. So if you're in the area, we hope you'll stop by on Thursday, June 20th at 6:30pm for a fun evening at Purl Soho with Windham Fabrics and Heather Ross!
