When I was a kid I remember my mum getting my brother and me an Indian liberty print quilt each. We both got so attached to our quilts that we would take them with us everywhere we traveled. I’m sure that hadn’t been part of my mothers plan as taking two bulky quilts everywhere is far from ideal but we wouldn’t be parted from our beloved quilts. When my quilt had to be washed my mum always made sure it was dried within the day as sleeping without it wasn’t an option (thanks mum!). I don’t know what it was about the quilt that made me so attached to it… the tiny floral print, the muted colours of pink and mint green, the softness of the fabric or was it just a comforter of sorts? Even though at the time I had no clue what a Liberty print was, I now know that is my earliest memory of owning something in this wonderful fabric.
Since then of course I have bought several Liberty print things and have a real love for the fabrics so it’s no wonder that I was drawn to this new collection of bed linen, pillows and soft bean bag type seats for kids. The collection has been created by Cam Cam especially for the lovely boutique Mimi’s Circus. While the entire collection is made using liberty print fabrics, it’s the little neon cloud detail that adds that extra special touch. I’m not normally a fan of bean bags but I think my favourite part of this collection is those bean bag type seats. It’s a collection that will appeal to both kids and adults and that always gets my vote.
