Ive seen a lot of it on Etsy. Im a scrapbooker,so I noticed this fabric right away,because they are fabric collections of the My Minds Eye paper lines. Lots of very very cute ones. They have really adorable ones for boys too

Our sales rep just picked their line up... and I'm trying to gauge whether very many people know about this name.

Their fabrics have a more modern look, a little bit like Michael Miller or Free Spirit.

Just checked out their website. Beautiful fresh and cheery fabrics and a wonderful websites. Tons of free patterns and great tutorials and lessons in the 'Cutting Class' section. I'm impressed.

I didn't realize that. I love MME-no wonder I love Riley Blake too (I haven't bought scrapbook paper in a long time so I didn't realize since I hadn't seen the newer lines). I also love that Cosmo Cricket and Basic Gray are being made into fabric now.

I know the line, and like it very much. Very modernish retro lines....if thats possible lol.

OUR LQS just started her line last month. I like the retro. SHe made aprons and a quilt to hang in the store. Lovely.

Please don't laugh at me but... is Riley Blake a "he" or a "she"? Or a "them"?

I thought it was a HE. Maybe not.

Don't worry, I also thought Riley Blake was the designer.
The name is a bit misleading. JMHO.

We just recently received a new catalog showcasing their new lines. Mostly all of the prints were very small and nice looking. Great color combinations too!!! This afternoon a customer walked in the door w/ a piece and it's a very nice quality fabric. Held it up to the light and a nice tight weave. Very comparable to Maywood and Moda in my opinion.
