Earth Views - Oceans
Earth Views – Oceans is a stunning new fabric collection printed on 100% organic cotton, inspired by photographs taken from space by Karen Nyberg while she lived aboard the International Space Station in 2013. Viewed from orbit, Earth’s oceans become abstract art—fluid, powerful, and endlessly beautiful.
Digitally printed on 44" wide organic cotton with a wonderfully soft hand, these fabrics are perfect for quilting, garments, bags, home décor, and creative sewing projects. And just wait until you see the selvedge—designed by Karen herself, it’s an absolute delight and a work of art in its own right.
Karen Nyberg is an engineer, astronaut, and lifelong artist who spent 166 days aboard the ISS, bringing her creativity into orbit. While in space, she photographed Earth, sewed a small toy dinosaur for her son from recycled materials, and helped inspire a remarkable global community quilt project that connected thousands of makers around the world.
Now retired from NASA, Karen continues to focus on art, conservation, and sustainability—values beautifully reflected in this collection. Earth Views – Oceans is more than fabric; it’s a reminder of our shared planet, seen from the most extraordinary perspective imaginable.
