I have had the good fortune to design fabric lines for both Studio e Fabrics, and Henry Glass & Co. As a designer for Henry Glass & Co., I was given the task of making a project for the blog hop using the Folio Basics line of fabric. I decided that a birthday celebration wouldn't be complete without a big Happy Birthday banner! So I put my thinking cap on and designed this banner using the yellow and red prints from the Folio Basics line, red rick rack, and Pellon 808 Craft Fuse Iron on interfacing.

A little bit about Jaftex:
Jaftex Corp. was founded in the 1930’s when Jacob A. Fortunoff started selling fabric on the streets of New York. At that time, the mainstay of the business was women’s sleepwear and lingerie. In the 80’s, Jacob’s grandson, Robert, dramatically changed the business of the company. The business focus was transferred to the over the counter quilt industry when Robert purchased companies like A.E. Nathan, Henry Glass, Stylemaker, Chanteclaire, Fabric Editions/Studioe and more recently The Blank Quilting Corp. Robert is now joined by his two sons, Scott and Greg. Scott currently is the President of Studioe Fabrics, The Blank Quilting Corp. & A.E. Nathan Co., Inc. Greg just joined the business in late 2014 and has successfully spearheaded the company’s foray in to precut fabrics among other contributions.
