Fabric Inspiration

Julia is a wink  of a street, just a block and a half, tucked just a skip away from the sewing studio in SoMa where Trudy is crafted.

Named after my grandmother Julia Ann, who was an innovative abstract artist in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Grandma Julia's art bares the use of raw layers, lines, blocks, spaces, shapes, expressed in unconventional materials and techniques. Her pieces are vast, textural works that surrounded me in my childhood home and left me feeling, calm, curious, and awe-inspired.

I never met my grandmother but her art and spirit inspires me and her love for the southwest is in my blood - when I found this fabric I knew it was special.  Julia is a bold, unconventional, striking, abstract expression for your inner artist.
