As the days start to lengthen I enjoy spending more and more of my evenings in the great outdoors. There is nothing like spending the evening hours in the fresh air to give you a good night’s rest. This year my family and I are planning a camping trip. We love to go kayaking, fishing and hiking. So, this summer we are especially excited about our trip and all the memories to be had. There is nothing like a meal cooked from scratch over a campfire or telling stories while the embers slowly fade into the night.
My husband grew up in the wild Northwest and his family lived the outdoorsy lifestyle right down to the fabric for their curtains! If you enjoy bringing the outdoors into your home with a lodge theme then I encourage you to browse through our large fabric selection. You are sure to find some woodsy fabric that is just perfect for your home decor and craft projects.
This Fishy Business tapestry depicts fly fishing for trout at it’s best. It reminds me of my trip last summer fly fishing the rivers throughout Yellowstone National Park. It is my pick for reupholstering furniture in a den or a lodge-style sitting area. For coordinates check out our tapestry fabric category for all your upholstery needs.
Hunter Gets Hunted depicts the antics of a rather discombobulated hunter and his prey. A chubby bear upsets camp by rummaging through the hunter’s stash and gleefully carrying it away. Among other things the hunter is seen airing out his rather odorous socks. Any outdoors-man or his wife is sure to appreciate this print. This fabric would be perfect for a patchwork quilt or if you want something for the trail, whip up a quick drawstring laundry bag.
A vintage camper, a fishing pole with a catch on the line, a crackling fire and compass along with other camping gear are seen scattered across a coal black background on our Summer Vacation Tossed novelty print. If you’re looking to refresh your camper, why not stitch up some new curtains using this fabric or create other accessories for your home away from home.
Don’t forget, before you declare, “Let’s go camping,” this season, whip up some quick projects using our large selection of outdoorsy fabrics!
