Huerto Flowers Fabric

"The Earth laughs in flowers." - Ralph Waldo Emerson

"Brave old-flowers! Wall-flowers, Gilly flowers, Stocks! For even
as the field-flowers, from which a trifle, a ray of beauty, a drop of
perfume, divides them, they have charming names, the softest in the
language; and each of them, like tiny, art-less ex-votos, or like medals
bestowed by the gratitude of men, proudly bears three or four."

- Maurice Maeterlinck

Of the many subjects that have captivated poets and writers, flowers have occupied one of the most prominent places. The variety of colors, textures and fragrances have inspired the poets and writers of many different cultures to sing the praises of flowers or to use them as metaphors.

Flowers have also served to inspire textile artists. The variety of fabric prints incorporating flowers is immense and always increasing. At J&O Fabrics we carry an extensive selection of flower prints, particularly in novelty weight cotton. Among these quilting fabrics is Huerto Flowers Fabric.

Huerto is a Spanish word for garden, and the design of Huerto Flowers Fabric shows a garden filled with a single type of flower. The flowers have antique cream petals and blue centers. The background is gray.

Huerto Flowers Fabric will make an excellent companion to your projects. It can be used for quilts, bed sheets, garments, fashion accessories, pet clothing, draperies and much more.
