For those who are daydreamers

Pie in the Sky: a collection with a particular meaning.

“Growing up, I always heard I was an incorrigible daydreamer, never in the moment, my head constantly in the clouds. My mind would wander from the classroom into a world of shapes and colors, completely forgetting where I was. Constantly drawing and building things, often several hours going by, without me being aware of it”.

These are the very words used by Tone Finnanger, to introduce her new collection, whose name is actually evocative of an extremely vivid imagination: “Pie in the Sky”. The Norwegian designer explains: “This collection is a sweet and colorful nod to children like me who struggle with dyslexia and cope by creating alternative, creative worlds full of ideas – hence the collection name, Pie in the Sky” and goes on with a sweet wish: “by being patient and continuing to create, you will eventually find your place in the world”!

These cotton prints are a fresh array of fabrics for spring and summer, with doodle-like flowers giving the designs a naive and effortless feel. The sweet motives and colors have a vintage look that was the point of departure for several traditional quilt designs (such as “double wedding band” and “fan”) and more . Each print has a funny name - like WillyNilly, Whimsybird, TopsyTurvy and Cloudpie - inviting you to indulge in a happy, creative sewing escape. As usual, all these fabrics are Oeko Tex certified.
