Magical Creatures Organic Fabric by Monaluna

I spent the better part of yesterday unpacking our newest collection, Magical Creatures, and I am so excited it’s here! It’s been a long time coming – we had to switch mills due to the tariffs, and that set everything back a bit, so what already seems like a long process was even longer. The fabrics look great, though, and it always makes me so happy to see the bright and shiny bolts stacked up neatly on our warehouse shelves.

 

This collection is a bit of a departure from the last few, like Journey and Wanderlust, which used watercolor and indigo ink, and were inspired by my (real) trips and experiences in the Southwest. The new group is whimsical and imaginary, with cheery colors and images of unicorns, dragons and mermaids that would set my 4th-grade heart a-flutter. I’m hoping they will instill the same excitement in some current-day 4th graders, and rekindle it in you grown-up 4th-graders out there.

 

Despite the mill change, the fabric is our standard premium poplin weave, and is, as always, 100% GOTS-certified organic. I’ve had some questions lately about whether this fabric is best for quilting or apparel, and the answer is, both! I find this substrate to be a wonderful quilt weight – more tightly woven and smoother than standard quilt-weight fabric – but also excellent for crisp garments like shirts, skirts and dresses. It’s a wonderfully versatile fabric. Here are a couple images of garments I’ve made with the fabric (the Ayashe shirt by Figgy’s, a made-up pattern by me, and Monaluna’s Skater Shirt pattern, L to R), and I’ll have some images of a lovely Magical Creatures quilt shortly!
