i think textile designer heather moore of skinny laminx and i have been long-distance corresponding since my early days of blogging, and she’s always been a favorite of mine. i’ve been trying to get to cape town, south africa where she lives for ages, but one day it’s going to happen! so until then, i’ll continue to admire her work from afar, and today we’re sharing heather’s latest collection — roof garden. skinny laminx’s new design is cleverly inspired by the shapes, colors and shadows of the spiky dry garden of her studio rooftop, and about the way indigenous plants thrive in dry times. Cape Town is experiencing a terrible drought right now but it’s comforting to know it could inspire such beautiful design. to celebrate the new roof garden collection, we’re giving away a $500 shopping voucher to shop any skinny laminx products of your choice. from pillows and totes to aprons and fabrics to even paper goods, you’ll have a lovely selection to choose from!

I pinned (https://www.pinterest.com/pin/172614598200939622/) the green version of the new print. I’d love to have a piece of furniture recovered in it! Would make such a fun piece!
Pinned! Definitely cute textiles. @jennettef
I pinned the pincushion pillow
Oohhh, one of my favourite companies!! I LOVE the new roof garden print – so fun!!

Just pinned the beautiful Roof Garden Pillow in Rio! Love!
I have enjoyed her prints for years and her retro modern patterns would look great in my home! So many designs I like, but the simplicity, subtle texture, and homeyness of Bowls particularly speaks to me.

I’d would love those pillows but I’m thinking I’d be better off buying yard sale and yards of fabric and making all the beautiful things with it!
Oh wow, I am a longtime fan of Heather’s beautiful fabric and her design aesthetic is amazing! If I were the lucky duck winner of this prize, I would absolutely treat myself to a pinny apron (I’ve been lusting after these for ages!!) in Roof Garden Miami (swoon!). And then I would likely go throw pillow crazy!! The Zig Zag pillow in Brazil and Tarmac, and the Bowls pillow in persimmon, lemon slice, and graphite. Thanks so much for sharing. I pinned @Jennyroo1 https://www.pinterest.com/pin/83175924354305979/
Pinned! https://www.pinterest.com/thismeforever/ I love the chairs featured in this post and feel inspired to make my own with skinny fabric.
I’ve been a long time fan of SkinnyLaMinx! Her patterns are amazing and I’ve purchased tea towels, pillow cases, and even toddler dresses from her shop in the past. My fav now is the Roof Garden Pillow https://skinnylaminx.com/product/roof-garden-pillow/ (20×20 in Rio) <3
Also, I pinned! @iaudrey

Love Heather’s work, trying to decide which one is my favorite is impossible because once you think you have narrowed down a colorway you need to choose a design, all I say!
I love her fabrics and patterns! I pinned the weft scarf: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/35536284542942373/ Would love to win :)
The Tea towel – When Everyone Came to Tea and the Alex sack in weft are two I would choose.

Thanks for this giveaway opportunity!
Oh my goodness! I pinned like 10 things! Love the fabric buckets and the trinity scarf is beautiful!
I pinned a Skinny Laminx table runner (https://www.pinterest.de/pin/16114511149910412/) , because I’ve been looking for one that is just slightly longer than my table (I like it when it dangles over the sides!). It’s pretty hard to pin just one thing, though.
I especially love the fabrics! It’s so enjoyable to sit there and pet your stash of pretty, pretty fabric and dream about making things out of them! :D
Love the red, pink and grey succulent fabric!
And this perfect tote:
