Faye Fabric - Saffron
Our popular geometric, small scale print Faye is inspired by a 1950s pattern from one of Cathy’s many American textile and quilting books. Named partially after Cathy’s daughter Faye but the name was also a fitting name for that mid-century era. The name Faye peaked between the 1890s and the 1920s which made it a typical “granny name” for the younger generation. Cathy pictured a woman in her 30s, in an American suburb in the 1950s, picking this fabric for the new home she was creating for her family.
Use: Most suitable for domestic upholstery. Please note that over exposure to sunlight may slightly fade the fabric over time.
SPECIFICATIONS

Hand printed in Sweden.
Our heritage collection is hand printed using a time-honored screen printing technique. Each color is applied by hand, layer by layer. Two skilled printers work in tandem, guiding the squeegee across the screen in a slow, steady rhythm until the pattern emerges in full.
The fabrics are then heat-set to ensure durability, without the need for washing — saving large amounts of water. We use water-based pigment dyes that are gentle on the environment and certified by the EU Ecolabel, OEKO-TEX® Baby, and the Nordic Swan.
