Florence Broadhurst - Born July 1899, Murdered October 1977
I have to write about this amazingly talented lady.
Her influences on Australia and the world in the early 1900's was second to none.
Her fabric designs are now as popular as they were back then.
I am yet to purchase any fabric with her designs, but hope to in the future.
My fabric wall hangings are crying out for the very fabric that I am about to mention.
I can imagine these prints on the walls of the most elite homes, the grand old mansions that she would have once lived in herself I am sure.
There are five main collections for her designs to be found.
If you are after pure elegance, you need to know about these.
I will offer you one designs from each collection - Black and White Collection - Aubrey Borderline Collection - Japanese Floral Home Collection - Japanese Bamboo Originals Collection - Fingers Woven Jacquard Collection - The Cranes These fabric consist of 100% cottons or polyester/cotton blends with different % depending on the designs chosen.
They come in widths starting at 137cm and retail here in Australia for approximately $143 AUD/metre Florence Broadhurst produced some truly inspirational designs.
She also had many other talents to add to her list of achievements.
Singing, painting, wallpaper designs and sculpting.
I felt sad to know that this women whom shone her outstanding talents on the world did not die of old age, she was murdered in Sydney Australia in 1977.
