What a sumptuous fabric!  Chintz like pink, blue and sandy flowers and leaves on a rich blue background, so glamorous.  This is Whimsyflower Blue from this year's Tilda Fabrics Spring/Summer collection of 'Chic Escape'.  

Tone Finnanger is the owner and designer of Tilda Fabrics and she has a very delightful way of describing her lockdown experience through this fabric collection: 

It is inspired by brave people saving and bringing life and laughter back to old forgotten buildings, and all our shared interests in vintage fabric, pottery and flowers.

Our escape during lockdown, a rather chic escape I might add, was following all the charming people that have left their old lives behind to restore derelict French chateaus, on YouTube. Starting their days knee deep in mud because of a leak and ending it with a cocktail party. Spending an uncommon amount of time in their dressing gowns often paired with brollies (I suppose their dressing-rooms are just too far away) and flanked by a peacock while tackling obstacles like a bathtub falling through the floor. Trips to local flea markets (brocants), always on the lookout for vintage pottery, fabric and furniture to bring these vast buildings to life.

Chic Escape differs from other Tilda collections with larger patterns and bolder, deeper colors. Daisyfield extras in 10 colors, designed using details from “Wildgarden” is a useful addition to the main collection.

🪡I love selling Tilda fabric for its colour and pattern. Not only is it beautiful, but they take their sustainability responsibility seriously - their cotton supplier is ISO9001 certified and a member of BCI (Better Cotton Initiative) and their Indian mill is SEDEX Approved and BSCI Approved.  It has OEKO-TEX® Class 1 certification. 

🧵The width is 44"/112cm.

✂️I supply Tilda Fabrics only as fat quarters unless otherwise specified.

How fabrics are cut

✂️More than one quantity will be cut as a continuous length.

✂️How many units do I put in the quantity box?

I cut my fabrics by the Fat Quarter, Half Metre and Full Metre. My fabrics are listed and sold in fat quarter and metre increments.

You will need to add 2 in the fat quarter quantity box to purchase a half metre, and 1 in the metre quantity box to purchase a metre and so on.

Any amount you select will be cut as one continuous piece unless you explicitly contact Rosemary Wild with your requirements.

The exception is if an odd number of units are selected, the additional unit will be sent as a fat quarter.  For example, if 3 is selected as the quantity, it would be sent as a half metre and a fat quarter.  

Please note that this is a rough guide as the fabrics can vary in width. 

Fat Quarter = 55cm wide x 50cm long (21" x 19") = 1 in the quantity box

Half Metre = 110cm wide x 50cm long (43" x 19") = 2 in the quantity box

Two separate units of a half metre and a fat quarter will be despatched = 3 in the quantity box

Full Metre = 110cm wide x 100cm long (43" x 39") = 4 in the quantity box

Materials

🌿Why don't you reduce your postage costs and take the option of re-used packaging. Living in a village with limited shops nearby and limited time to visit shops, I do quite a bit of internet shopping. Not only is it a timesaver with three children but I cut down my own mileage. This does mean I get quite a lot of packaging through my door which I then normally recycle. However, I thought some of my lovely customers wouldn't mind paying a little less postage for a reused envelope or box:

Care Instructions

💦It is suitable for hand washing and machine washing.

💦It is advisable to pre-wash the fabric before you start your project.

All fabrics will shrink a little bit in the wash and by pre-washing them before cutting and sewing with them, a perfect fit is ensured which won’t change after the first wash! Typically, 10% shrinkage is allowed for in all washable natural fibres. Wash before making up in the same manner as you would with subsequent washes (including drying methods). Make sure you fully open out your fabric prior to washing. It is suggested to machine wash cotton at 30/40 degrees and tumble dry on a low heat setting and press with an iron using steam on a hot setting.


Rosemary Wild cannot be held responsible if the fabric is damaged once it is in possession of the customer. Fabrics liable to mis-shape should be dried flat, or in a cool tumble dryer. Most fabrics should be pressed before cutting. Every washing machine does differ, so it is your responsibility to test wash any fabrics that you purchase from us.
