Childhood springtime meant mornings spent in the family’s front garden alongside my grandparents. Buzzing bees, blooming flowers, and my grandmother’s beloved lemon tree. Daybreak is the gathering of memories, the distinct smell of fresh cut grass and springtime rain, cheery blooms, and the buzzing of honeybees, all infused with a fresh and feel-good color palette.

Designer: Fran Gulick
A Chilean who calls Washington state home, Fran of Cotton and Joy has been described as “addicted to creating.” Always doodling or crafting, she first learned to quilt while pregnant with her oldest son in 2014, but it wasn’t until 2018 when she encountered the modern quilting world that she was hooked.
Before starting Cotton and Joy, Fran worked 8 years as a web designer and loves happy, bright colors and has a tendency to stay up way too late reading.
