ilda Chambray Basics
Tilda Chambray Basics: the different solids In the textile world, and in that of quilting and creative sewing cottons, solid colors are those traditionally identifying plain fabrics and they are universal fabrics, always much sought after, since they fit the most different needs and virtually match any patterned “textile cousin”. Tone Finnanger has restyled the idea of solids, giving them a whole new touch. Her Cambray Solids, in fact, stand out for their amazing, pastel and dusty color shades, obtained with the same technique used to manufacture the so-called “Oxford cotton”:i.e. with a basket weaving of pure cotton threads with thinner and colored threads for the warp and a thicker,…
Tilda Bon Voyage: looking forward to Summer!
“Our heart goes out to all of you in this challenging time. Especially to those who are experiencing the worst sides of this virus… This virus affects us all in some way, but at Tilda Fabrics we are continuing to deliver and work from home. So are our partners. I did not anticipate when designing this collection and deciding on a name a year ago that we would not be able to travel as it is released. When the collection was shipped out to our customers we had no idea the whole world would be turned upside down a few weeks later. Wish you all the best from a house…
Happy Campers Tilda: the new collection is here!
A celebration of Spring, already in January. Its name is “Happy Campers/Spring 2020” and it’s the new Tilda collection, opening the New Year and definitely anticipating the warm, next season, both in its color shades and in its patterns 🙂 Small, very detailed flowers and little, lovely bees happily swirling among their petals represent the leitmotiv of these new pure cotton fabrics, together with a whole lot of gingham and polka dots nicely mixed together by the Norwegian designer, in her unmistakable style. All patterns seem to re-echo some cheerful days in the open air, with oilcloths on the camping tables! And the connection to camping and to the iconic…

Tilda Plum Garden
The new Tilda collection … but we’re going to be ahead of the game! In the ultra-millennial Chinese tradition, the plum tree flower represents perseverance and courage: it’s a humble bud with delicate, rose petals, quite similar to its more famous “cousin”, the cherry blossom (so venerated in Japan). For her next collection – that will be here in some weeks (the official launch is scheduled by mid July) – Tone Finnanger has chosen exactly the plum tree as the protagonist, as we can see already in its name “Plum Garden”. Actually, we don’t know the reason why, but we love the thought of connecting this choice to the fact…
LazyDays: the new Tilda collection is here!
A bit of liberty, a lots of flowers Tone Finnanger has said so herself: her new collection was inspired by the floral patterns of both Art Nouveau e Art Deco artistic movements (that were popular from the late 1800s to the early 1900s). This is how the fabrics’ patterns of this collection were born. Perfect for a cute summer look with a “Decadent” touch to it, as expected by the Liberty style. In addition to the bundles – practical pack of five or more fabric cuts – you’ll find the amazing (and also very practical) roll, with 30 strips (measuring 5X110 cm, and the charmpack with 40 cuts for…
