Maman - Origins

My mom, Arlette, put together a little portfolio to show at Quilt Market of my grandmother's artwork from which Maman was born. This is just a sampling of the hundreds of works she created and that we have the fortune to possess.

I'd like to write a post soon about the creation of Maman given the breadth of work and all the different themes, colors, and styles. It was no easy task to reflect Anne-Marie Bossaert's work in so few an assortment- all the while unifying the images and making a cohesive and desirable range. But we're all very happy with the results, and we hope you are, too!

Do you recognize the girls in the top left? Les Petites Filles.
Maman (and the coordinating Nursery Basics) is just hitting stores now. Its classic and timeless appeal will satisfy many nursery decorators, gift makers, and heirloom creators--and the contemporary colors will blend well with most new and sleek furnishings... just like I wanted when I was decorating but had a hard time finding.

If you're coming to market, please stop by booths 125/127 and feel free to peruse these pages... we will have some gorgeous samples on display, too- we'll be sure to take pics and share them once we're all set up.
