Heather Ross, Far Far Away, Kokka of Japan
This gorgeous fabric is 100% cotton in a light double gauze, 106cm wide. It is perfect for clothing, especially for wearing in humid and hot conditions. The pattern size is indicated by the tape measure in the photo, which is in centimetres. The frog is about 2cm wide.
Heather’s description of her fabric: my lines for Kokka are more about the imaginary places where I wish I could live. They are lush meadows and small towns built from toys by children, evening dances held by squirrels. My newest line for Kokka is no different, and is in fact named for those first few words that appear at the beginning of many an imaginary tale: Far Far Away....
At first I was focussed on the princesses, especially a certain princess and her pea, but soon found myself sketching unicorns. The rest of the prints came quickly enough, a Frog Prince print and some florals.
I am having it printed on a luxurious, drapey cotton double guaze, which will be perfect for dresses, skirts, and blouses. The collection comes in three colorways. Below is the "Dacha" colorway, full of russian purples and reds, then there is a primary group with clear blues, reds, and yellows, and finally, a warm and girly group of pinks and browns and gold.
