in LOVE with amy butler + giveaway

Amy’s new collection – LOVE – is a heady mix of a pretty florals and ethnic architectural designs – inspired by her recent adventures in Indonesia and England. The colours are rich, hot and tropical – with more dark colours – blacks and navys than we have seen with Amy’s collections before.

I have recently discovered and fallen for the simple creaminess of her solids collection which perfectly offsets her earlier suites of fabrics. I hope there is a solid range coming out to accompany LOVE.

Amy Butler is giving 3 whipup readers the chance to win a pattern pack with the Madison bag, Sweet Harmony bag and The Field Bag. Leave a comment here about what you have made with Amy Butler fabric.
