My favorite season of the year is Summer so when I see bright and colorful fabric prints, I automatically get excited! Today’s Lookbook release is a special one because it’s our Collection called Sunburst, that just transports you into a 1960’s mid-summer paradise. All the designs just make you want to sit by the poolside and soak up some rays like the Print “Fun in the Sun Chill” which is the one featuring the ladies laying on towels, the fresh lemons, and the beach balls! I can already see so many summer projects being made that just call for these fabrics like tote bags, sunglasses covers, hats, picnic blankets- pretty much every essential you might need the next time you’re on vacation. 

Sometimes it can be hard to explain in words what we envisioned for a collection! So above you’ll find a collage capturing the mood and color palette that will get you inspired! With just a couple of words, here is what Sunburst is all about: Poolside, retro, fun, bright. I feel like if this collection would be a song it would be The Beach Boys- “Good Vibrations,” you can hear it too, right? hehe.

*Available in 16 quilting cotton prints

Imagine all the dazzling summer projects you can make with all the prints from our Sunburst collection! Almost every print comes in a different colorway, which only means more fabric combinations and more fun.

*Knit prints in Strawberry Lemonade & Fun In The Sun Warm

There are also two available knit prints so you can create tons of cute breezy apparel! If you haven’t felt our knits before, you’ll love how cozy yet breathable it is for the summertime. It is just waiting for you to cut into it so you can transform it into dresses, cover-ups, and more! 

Is a patchwork project really complete without some matching AGF Elements?! Here are some of our picks that go perfectly with Sunburst. 

PURE Solids: Fresh Water, Maldives, Tile Blue, Mediterraneo, Turmeric, Mandarin, Tigerlily, Sweet Pink, and Grapefruit. 

Squared Elements: Cyan, Cielo, and Rosewater.

Create a dazzling quilt like our “Fun ‘n Sun” free quilt pattern that shows off these cheery fabrics!
