Cloth Fabric by Linen House Australian bed linen

I've long loved these Australian flora and geography-influenced bed linen designs by Cloth Fabric's Julie Paterson for Linen House. Banksia, Kangaroo Paws and our urban streets and roundabouts from above... the only challenge is which to choose. These designs have just been released at well below retail price at Temple & Webster. Get them while they're hot.

Cloth Fabric bed linen

Celebrated Australian textile design label Cloth Fabric has just released four uniquely Australian bedlinen designs that I have completely fallen in love with.

Julie Paterson and her team have collaborated with Linen House, printing her instantly recognisable designs on unbleached linen cotton. This bed linen is meant to look just-off-the-line crumpled. No ironing required (love this).

My favourite aspect of Cloth Fabric textiles is that Julie's designs are truly Australian in feel with patterns and shapes reminiscent of the Australian landscape.

The 'looking for water' design echoes waterholes and boardwalk planks. 'Rose' is a throw-back to Julie's English heritage and the city-inspired 'spotcheck' design connects the dots of urban roads and roundabouts from above. The 'banksia' design (top) showcases our amazing (and underrated) native Banksia cones. Love May Gibbs as I do, I often wonder if  the Banksia Men characters have kept this amazing plant out of popular design for us. Thanks Julie for celebrating their unique shape in a contemporary way.

You can find Cloth Fabric bedlinen in the Cloth Fabric store in Surry Hillls, NSW, Myer around Australia and in the online store (opening soon). Or you can order online directly from Cloth Fabric.

Hip Products: Cloth Fabric textiles and homewares

One of Australia's more established textile designers is Julie Paterson of Cloth Fabric. With her team of 5, Julie hand-screenprints textiles that are used for upholstery and soft furnishings in residential and commercial interiors.

Cloth has a huge range of textiles to let your imagination run wild. I particularly like the Australian flora designs (check out the placemats - what a great gift for overseas friends and family). And if you are the ready-to-buy type, there is a whole collection of homewares including cushions, lampshades, table linen, rugs, clothing, bags, piece goods and creatures.

I was especially excited to find the image above featuring the "stoney" cushion designs. I had seen the painting backdrop in a Real Living magazine years ago and been in love with it ever since; and here it is!

You can find Cloth fabric and products on the Cloth website, in the showroom in Surry Hills, Sydney, as well as at stockists in Australia, Asia and New Zealand.
