We are totally in love with the new Rabbit and Squirrel Patchwork kits. You might have noticed the rabbit is on the cover of the Tilda catalogue. They are perfect projects for anyone who loves to sew and the right size project for new beginners who wants to learn patchwork.
The animals can work as decorative pillows and are perfect for children’s rooms. We added a gift tag and some string to the kit as a cute detail.
If you plan to add a cute home-sewn vintage dress to your wardrobe the Libby fabrics are perfect. We love Libby Dark Slate but if you are going for more colour Libby is also available in Pink, Teal and Olive.
We found a good selection of vintage dress patterns at White Three Fabrics and Jaycotts.
For fun details you can add matching buttons, available in three in different sizes.
This year we just had to go for a colourful optimistic autumn look.
Whatever worries we might have or however sad it is to see summer fade into autumn; Cabbage Rose will make Tildasworld a haven of positive colours this autumn and winter.
The second collection Memory Lane is inspired by the 20s colour scheme, blue black and olive greens combined with turquoise and pink.
Here is a presentation of the autumn collections!
The Cabbage Rose Collection is a playful series inspired by colourful characters like 1950s comedian Lucille Ball and Astrid Lindgren’s Pippi Longstocking.
Designs with rabbits and flowers in soft orange, blue-green, red and pink give the series a sweet and colourful feel – perfect for pleasant patchwork quilts combined with folklore appliqués.
Cabbage Rose is an homage to “everyday roses” who inspire and add colour to life with their creativity and joie de vie.
Lucille Ball was the inspiration for the Cabbage Rose logo.
The Memory Lane collection is inspired by the 1920s, with its innovative fashion and colours, jazz, the Charleston and Art Deco. The patterns comprise both classic and more modern floral designs.
Colours such as bluish-black, olive green and off-white with hints of pink and turquoise result in a beautiful, interesting combination for a style that is both classic and perfect for today.
The series is excellent for both patchwork quilts and formal bags.
If you love the 1920s style – a good tip is the BBC series “The House of Eliott”

Wishing you all a great summer with another autumn preview. This is one of our favourite quilts and will be available as a pattern this autumn. It’s called The Cabbage Rose Quilt.
We hope you enjoy your holiday!
We are very exited to share that two of the beloved Tilda characters – a fox and a rabbit will be available as lovely pre-sewn dolls this august!
Many of you are experts on sewing Tilda dolls and animals and Tilda will as always be about making your own personal dolls, but pre-sewn bodies are perfect for those who find doll sewing a bit daunting, or for young people learning to create and sew.
It’s so much fun making clothes and accessories!
Some of you might know that Tilda started as an idea of a children’s concept that emerged into a craft brand many years ago, and it’s a dream come true for us to be able to provide pre sewn Tilda dolls approved for children in all ages worldwide. Crafty friends that can inspire creativity.
It has been a long process getting the look right and the quality perfect, and we are very happy with the result.
Among the autumn news you will find sweet patterns for clothes, and we will share ideas and patterns on the blog on how you can personalize and make accessories.
We had so much fun creating a colorful world around these characters, and hope to continue with more pre sewn Tilda characters in the years to come to inspire creativity and playfulness.
We’ll see you in august!
