Spooktacular

Halloween fabric fat quarters

Collections FABRIC AND HOME DECOR By Judy Beau A little of the traditional, a little of the outre, this Halloween fabric and home decor collection is ready to adorn party table settings and spooky outfits.

Lake & Lodge Bedding Collection

I am currently planning a makeover of our guest room. I have spent countless hours in careful consideration of the bedding’s “theme,” as if I was designing a Disney resort. After all, a bedroom is more than just a place to sleep; it’s a sanctuary …

Linnea’s Garden

Collections By Judy Beau Bold and geometric, yet fanciful, the Linnea’s Garden Fabric Collection was inspired by Scandinavian designs with a retro twist. Whimsical woodland animals live in harmony with flowers and vegetables (unlike my own yard) and the joyful colors dance between lively sun-filled meadows and shadowed forests. I can envision these designs in […]

Dandelions and Daydreams

Farmhouse and Cottage wallpaper and textiles Dispatching wishes with dandelion fluff, holding buttercups under our chins to see who liked butter (everyone), and plucking daisy petals to see if our school crush loved us back. Picking sweet blueberries, bees softly buzzing as they worked in the warmth of the sun. Lying on old quilts on […]

Cabana stripes with a gothic twist, classic ticking stripes in cottage colors, floral stripes, traditional shirting stripes, playful retro stripes — they all find a home here. Available on a delightful […]

Sea Turtle Paradise

This Sea Turtle Paradise print has been a popular piece, so I thought I’d put together a quick share of the inspiration and process behind it. The seed idea for this theme came from my sister, and so requires a tiny backstory …

Ode to the Polka Dot

Polka dot fabric by Judy Beau shown on a child's sundress.

As I was wrapping up my latest collection, I found myself so in love with the color palettes that I did not want to say goodbye. So I did what I always do when presented with this problem. I created a simple pattern and played with color …

Dandelion Dreams

You can see I made the move from “retro” to “vintage” vibe with this design. It has romantic cottage charm, yet is not entirely conventional. While I’m a big fan of traditional cabbage roses, I feel dandelions are truly unsung heroes …
