Hobonichi - Liberty Fabrics: Sasha Kiora | A5 Cousin Cover

Sasha Kiora is a small floral pattern reminiscent of the pastoral illustrations by Kate Greenaway, a representative picture book artist of the latter half of 19th century Britain. With pink and light blue anemones drifting through the breeze, and small buds and leaves peeking through, this elegant design is reminiscent of a windy meadow.

The fabric on the exterior is a Tana Lawn cotton, a material developed by Liberty Fabrics, which provides a smooth and silky feel that you will want to keep touching again and again.

About the Artist

Liberty Fabrics is a fabric brand from England. Founded in 1875 by Arthur Lasenby Liberty (1843-1917), who discovered the beauty of Japanese art during a World''s Fair in London in the 19th century.

The company originated as a small import shop with oriental ornaments and fabrics. The delicate silk and intricate hand-dyed art were praised by followers of the Aesthetic Movement, and in the 1880s, Liberty began printing high-quality cotton textiles as a way to recreate sturdy versions of the delicate Eastern silks.

In the 1920s, Liberty developed their original Tana Lawn cotton material, which looks and feels like silk and has a lightweight structure that allows it to drape beautifully. Liberty has created intricate prints bursting with colour and complex designs ever since.

This is a cover only and does not include the Cousin book. The book is available here.
