Fabricut’s Mount Vernon Embroidery and Mount Vernon Trimmings – Volume II
Fabricut and the Mount Vernon Ladies’ Association collaborate to help preserve a piece of American history. In its second collection inspired by the vast grounds and treasured archives of the first president’s remarkable estate in Virginia, Fabricut’s Mount Vernon Embroidery and Mount Vernon Trimmings – Volume II reveal the elegant and hospitable spirit of George and Martha Washington.

Fabricut: Nature’s Song Embroidery Process..
Mount Vernon for Fabricut’s Nature’s Song pattern is inspired by an illustration in Mark Catesby’s Natural History of Carolina, Florida, and the Bahama Islands (1731), a book found in Mount Vernon’s library during George Washington’s time. Refreshed for today’s traditional and transitional interiors, we take you behind the mill for an interesting glimpse into how the hoops are placed by hand and the birds are embroidered by machine after the printed process.
Nature’s Song is available in five colorways: Amber, Cardinal, Federal, Garden and Verdigris.
