Treasure Hunt

Going on a treasure hunt? X marks the spot. A sweet new addition to designer Marcia Derse’s family brought to the surface this little rhyme which she used to sing to her own babies and inspired this collection.

The familiar chant guided the rhythm of the patterns and gave her the focus for a feature panel: a map created with new techniques that I’ve learned during my recent travels in the pacific northwest.

Included in this treasure hunt is a fabric design full of x's called "X marks the spot", inspired by quirky places like mutiny bay and smugglers cove, and the unique feature fabric which uses antique Japanese journal paper, boro paper patching, and deconstructed printing.
