Lately I’ve felt the need for calm and serenity. Cool blues and soft seafoam and minty greens give me the mindset for relaxation after a full day. Just a vase with romantic blooms to bring some beauty into the room, to remind me of the breeze from a cottage garden filled with butterflies.

In my Cottage Bleu collection, I was thinking of the things that make my space feel special and serene. I was drawn to the calming feeling of blues, from the light shades of sky to the deep navy night, mixed with those big blue blooms. Emerging buds come with soft greens and deep emerald leaves. This hydrangea line, joined with fluttering butterflies, celebrates those blues and greens and citrusy yellows with creamy whites.

When designing patterns for this group, I was influenced by decorating my home to create spaces that bring me comfort and encourage moments of slowing down. I hope you find calm, serenity and beauty in this collection and can escape for a visit to Cottage Bleu.
