A Nod to The East: Silkroad Fusion Collection

Hi Makers!

If you have been following AGF for a while, you would know that we don't often focus on contrasting colors of black, red, and white in our collections. Well, we decided to do things a little different this time and this time, and bring them to center stage in our latest collection! Inspired by what you’d discover while traveling the trading route that connected The East to The West, AGF created its latest collection, “Silkroad Fusion.” This fabric line celebrates the emerging trend of Asian influences in textiles with designs from ancient techniques of brushwork that’s modernized with geometrics and florals, creating a unique, exotic mix for your sewing.

We decided to do a new take on color combinations and use full bodied hues of scarlet red and charcoal black mixed with pops of white. Silkroad Fusion is ideal for creating elegant and impactful sewing projects. Available in cotton with select prints in knits and a rayon, these designs can be used to sew bold quilts, pillows, table runners, wall hangings, Japanese-style garments like kimonos, and statement accessories.

    OH! Loving that fabric line–especially the red and the flower on whites–I’m planning a large clamshell Asian theme quilt–could really use those!

    I am designing a quilt around one of the fabrics in this collection: FUS-SR-1700 Aquarella Silkroad. I love the colors and the scale of the flowers. My challenge is figuring out which of the PURE Solids match the Grays in the fabric. None of my local quilt shops carry your full line so I’m “flying blind”. Can you advise about these grays? I need to have a light, medium, and dark gray for my design. THANK YOU!!!
    Light Grays:
    PE-410 ASH
    PE-479 GENTLE FEATHER
    PE-519 PACIFIC
    Medium Grays:
    PE-480 STEEL
    PE-430 MOONSTONE
    Dark Grays:
    PE-481 MAGNETISM
    PE-413 CAVIAR (is this more of a black?)
