Happy Friday, dear friends! In case you missed it on social media, I have a wonderful piece of news to share with you: Earlier this week, my Insta pal, Katie Taylor Armour, of the blog Katie Considers, launched Trudie, an online shop with a delightful take on American Country style. Inspired by the nostalgia for a slower pace of living and the charm of American country style, Trudie reimagines classic homewares in a playful and colorful new light. The brand’s first collection launched on September 12 and contains a variety of hand crafted home essentials, made with organic textiles that are 100% free of harmful chemicals. From ruffled napkins to hand-quilted patchwork throws in fresh prints and cheerful color combinations, Shop Trudie answers a need in the market for items that are rooted in the past, yet modern in the way they are designed, produced and marketed. Enjoy 10% OFF your first order by joining Truly Trudie. 

About Trudie

BEHIND THE NAME: Trudie was named after the trailblazing Gertrudes in history: explorer Gertrude Bell, horticulturalist Gertrude Jekyll, writer Gertrude Stein, folk artist Sister Gertrude Morgan, and sculptor Gertrude Vanderbilt Whitney, among others. We are inspired by their confidence, style, and zest for life.

HAND CRAFTED WITH CARE: Our throws are genuine patchwork that is meticulously pieced together before being hand quilted by artisans in India. In Kashmir, skilled artists have hand painted each piece of our floral enamelware designs.

QUALITY YOU CAN TRUST: Trudie textiles are organic cotton with STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX® certification. They have been tested and proven free from harmful levels of hazardous substances. Even our quilt batting is organic cotton.

THE TEAM: Trudie was dreamt up during a North Carolina coffee date between kindred spirits Megan Sommers and Katie Armour Taylor. The two bonded over a love of colorful patchwork quilts and lamented their scarcity in the market. They began creating their own designs, reimagining American country style with a playful wink. This September, Trudie unveiled its first collection of homewares.
