Collection: Marcia Derse

Marcia Derse - Fabric Designer for Windham Fabrics

From her studio on Whidbey Island, Marcia transforms the traditional quilting world into her personal playground, treating every bolt of fabric like a fresh masterpiece.

Known for her "organized eye candy," Marcia doesn’t just design patterns—she builds a "vocabulary of color". Her process is pure creative chaos in the best way: she uses everything from pine cones and spoons to bamboo pens and handmade stamps to apply paint with total abandon. The result? Fabrics that feel less like mass-produced textiles and more like hand-dyed works of art.

Why You’ll Love Her Designs:

Artistic Soul: Her signature style blends painterly textures, abstract patterns, and earthy, primitive vibes with a modern, urban edge.
The "Palette" Power: Her iconic Palette line offers 100+ tonal solids that mimic hand-dyed cottons, providing the perfect depth for any project.
Endless Curiosity: Whether she’s inspired by her grandchildren's fearlessness or a vintage mosaic, her collections—like Curiosity, The Blue One, and Art History 101—are always full of surprises.
2026 Freshness: Keep an eye out for The Plaid One, her upcoming February 2026 collection that reimagines classic patterns with her unmistakable artistic flair.

Whether you’re crafting a bold modern quilt, a statement garment, or home décor that pops, Marcia Derse fabrics are the "perfect canvas" for your most ambitious ideas. Browse the collection and start playing!
