- Turquoise Country Floral Rayon Lawn - The silky, smooth hand in immediately recognizable in this rayon lawn, from our favorite company Cotton & Steel. A mix of rayon and cotton, it has a semi-fluid drape, but tight weave for a look we adore. The print is a country/cottage-core floral with peachy pink and blue flowers on a deep, blue-green background. Sweet but not saccharine, this fabric will give you all the right vibes!
- Watermelon Rayon Poplin - Normally this poplin comes in bold prints that we have swooned over in past boxes, but we recently discovered a line of solids that has us over the moon. A tighter weave than a challis, this poplin is completely opaque and deeply saturated. The orangey, melon pink is summery and fresh, and will transition beautifully into the traditional, earthy tones of fall. A gorgeous fabric!
- Hilma Painted Flowers Viscose Twill - If you look closely at this fabric, what seems like a wild, abstract line print is actually a bold, modern floral with blush pink and ochre blooms all across the surface. Modern and unexpected, this print is a sight to see. Plus the ecovero twill is silky soft, with a flowing drape and light weight, perfect for the late summer heat!
