Fabric Feature: Circa 50 by Birch Fabrics
Posted February 7, 2010
As part of our month of all-boy posts, I wanted to feature some great fabrics for boys, so I’ve been on the prowl. Here is one of my new favorite lines:
I just about clawed my computer screen right off when I first saw these new organic fabrics from the Circa 50 line by Birch Fabrics. That would have been hard to explain to Mr Rae. But truly, would these not be perfect for any kind of boy sewing (young or old)?

Circa 50 is the result of a collaboration between designer Jennifer Moore of Monaluna and Cynthia Mann of Fabricworm. They will be available in March for purchase. Hooray!

Ow, those rockets are super!
Ooh, I LIKE those. I can see all sorts of lovely boy clothes made out of that fabric!
I am in love with those fabrics. The Eames chairs are definitely going on my MUST HAVE list when they are available.
i think these fabrics are amazing! might have to go and buy some! very tempted!
Those fabrics are downright gorgeous and what a bonus they are organic to boot!
Wow, they are fab fabrics, just what I'm always searching for for my little man!
thanks for posting these fabrics, they are lovely. Can't wait to get my hands on these!
Those are precious. My niece is pregnant & this boy month is making me want her to have a boy!
Love them! So fun!
Oh utterly delightful fabrics! and organic too. Can't wait to see want you do with them.
What hip fabrics! I do love thse, and have hd them bookmarked for a while myself. It's nice to se there are some immediately available fabrics, instead of always having to wait for Kokka to ship to the U.S. or settling for something not nearly as cool and interesting.
Great fabrics! LOVE those shorts!!!
i love them all! especially the one with the chairs. they are so tempting, i might just have to put them on my wish list. thanks for sharing!
Oooh, awesome!!
OMG — I think I love you. Seriously. I've been searching and searching for a COLLECTION of boy fabrics for like 2 months now — I am making my son a quilt for his birthday in October — and I think this will be perfect. THANK YOU for celebrating BOYS!!! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU
OH they are terrific! & I can only buy in March! How cruel to make us wait!!!

So funky! Thanks for the heads up. These are great! Finally, "boyish" fabrics that even I love!
Oh goodness!! Must. Get. Hands. On. Fabric. Can't wait for that to come out!!
I just drooled all over my laptop!
I SO love this fabric too! I bought some fabric from Fabricworm recently and they slipped in a little sample. My mouth is watering.

I totally missed this post! I love the boy fabrics. I have lots of pinks, but need to add some different hues to my stash! too fun.
