think of it as fancy oilcloth... Maybe it is a case of cabin fever, but I can't seem to shake my ever growing excitement for spring. I've always been a fan of vintage oil cloth prints, but when I stumbled upon these gorgeous laminated cotton prints by Amy Butler and Michael Miller, I automatically envisioned picnics at Pineland, summer dinners out on the deck, and impromptu camping adventures. All of these outdoor activities can be spruced up with a these great patterned textiles. With very little skill, anyone can turn these easy-to-clean fabrics into picnic tablecloths, placemats, and aprons.
Though oil cloth is still the best bargain out there, at around $15-17 per yard, laminated cotton still won't break the bank too bad. Now if only my sewing skills were a little better...
(The above two patterns are from Amy Butler Love Laminated. Below is a classic damask from Michael Miller.)

Beautiful designs. I completely agree on thoughts of spring. My brain hasn't taken to winter yet. A month and a half to go and it's March. Right??
