The Morris Apprentice Jelly Roll by Barbara Brackman for Moda Fabrics - OOP

This is a Jelly Roll of fabrics from the "Morris Apprentice" collection by Barbara Brackman for Moda Fabrics. There are (40) 2.5" x 44" strips from the collection. Fabric is all new, 100% premium Moda cotton. This (now out of print) collection of William Morris design celebrates the master apprentice John Henry Dearle. In the late 1870s the 18-year-old art student was hired as a showroom assistant. Twenty years later he was Head Designer putting his own stamp on the Morris style. The prints in The Morris Apprentice reflect Dearle’s new directions. He added color and line from art nouveau in designs like “Helena” and “Foliage.” Pattern repeat took on a Persian formality in “Eden.” Dearle became Art Director in 1896 after Morris’s death, guiding the firm into the Twentieth Century. This assortment is part of a larger collection assembled by Barbara Brackman. I believe this was originally released in 2014, but I'm unable to find another shop which carries it. Apologies for not having more information than this. I think it's a rare assortment at this time (at least in the US). Thanks for stopping by!
