Bold Fuchsia: Fusion of Colour and Craft
The Art Behind Atomic: Libs Elliott's Masterpiece
Discover the mesmerising world of Atomic, a fabric collection that epitomises the synergy of art and science. Curated by the prolific Canadian quilt artist, Libs Elliott, this collection is a reflection of her unique approach to design, effortlessly merging traditional craft with modern technology. With each fabric, she narrates a tale, often drawing from personal experiences and the warm embrace of nostalgia. Atomic stands testament to this ethos, presenting bold colours that capture the imagination.
Dive into the Exquisite 'Orchid'
Let your senses be enveloped by Orchid's lush fuchsia hue. This fabric is not just about colour but an experience. The rich tone, reminiscent of a vibrant sunset or blooming spring flowers, sets the stage. However, Orchid's true magic lies in its pattern – striking purple lightning bolts that dance upon the fuchsia backdrop, telling tales of storms and passions. Such an intricate design isn't just a pattern; it's a story, a memory, a piece of art waiting to be a part of your next masterpiece.
Quality that Speaks Volumes
Every piece of fabric from the Atomic collection speaks of unparalleled quality, and Orchid is no exception. Manufactured by the renowned Andover Fabrics, Orchid boasts a fabric weight of 145gsm. Crafted from 100% cotton, it stretches wide at 44”/112cm. What truly sets it apart, though, is its tone-on-tone blender characteristic. This ensures that the fabric retains its richness and does not bleed over time. Coupled with a sublime handle and drape, this fabric is a crafter's dream come true.
