If you love sewing and decorating with hemp but want to add a pop of color to your neutral palette of creamy naturals and earthy taupes consider these bast beauties: sea-inspired hemp prints designed by Dawn Oliveira of Oliveira Textiles.
Printed without heavy-metal pigments or chemical finishes on soft, beefy twill and herringbone made of hemp and hemp/organic cotton, Oliveira's fabrics lend themselves to a variety of healthy home décor applications. Dawn's contemporary prints are rendered with graceful lines and pretty hues taken straight from her native seaside landscape. It's a design aesthetic that's comfortable, happy, and well-suited for making colorful accent pillows, cushions, curtain panels and casual slipcovers for chairs and ottomans.
One of my favorite things about well-designed eco-prints like these: as little as one yard will make a big impact (on your living space and the environment). Dawn is offering her prints at a special reduced price of $55/yd (regular price $75/yd) from June 13th-20th.
