 🍓  "Under the Apple Tree" by Loes van Oosten

Welcome under the apple tree – where summer smells sweet, sewing is barefoot, and strawberries never go out of style! The charming collection "Under the Apple Tree" by Dutch designer Loes van Oosten is a fruity-fresh greeting from grandma's garden – with a good dose of retro flair and artistic flair.

The prints in the loving linocut style show plump strawberries in delicate pastel tones or with strong contrast – so playful you almost want to bite into them. Printed on high-quality cotton and soft canvas quality, directly from Japan, these fabrics invite you to dream, sew, and nibble (visually, of course!).

Whether for picnics, children's rooms, summer dresses, or mood-boosting cushions – this collection simply makes you happy. And as always: no mess, just get creative!

🍓 Queen of Berries – Summer Red

This is what summer looks like in fabric form!
"Queen of Berries – Summer Red" brings full berry power to your sewing machine: bright red strawberries with green calyx leaves dance on delicate pink. White berries add playful variety – all in the charming linocut style of Loes van Oosten. This fabric is pure summer joy, fresh like a strawberry field in June and sweet like the first bite of a sun-warmed fruit.
