New Martha Stewart Collection with Chilewich

Martha Stewart recently partnered with Chilewich, a textile company founded in New York in 2000, to launch a full collection of indoor/outdoor rugs, mats, placemats, table runners and coasters inspired by the textiles found in Martha's own homes and images of vintage textiles photographed for the pages of Martha Stewart Living magazine. The collection comes in a pleasing palette of neutrals, warm or cool tones to best suit your living space. Featuring 20 timeless pieces, the collection is durable, distinctive in design and easy to clean. Even nicer, everything is made in the United States using phthalate-free yarns by TerraStrand, which impart enduring resistance to staining, wear and fading, as well as mold and mildew growth.

Martha has been a Chilewich customer for decades and applauds the company's commitment to American-made products that last, using eco-friendly materials without sacrificing attractive design.

“This beautiful, new collaborative collection explores treasured patterns and rich textures in my favorite colors. You'll love how easily they wipe clean and stay looking new through years of enjoyment. No ironing necessary," said Martha in a statement. 

Below are some examples from the collection. I love how modern they are while still honouring classic design motifs, such as damask, handkerchief and grosgrain ribbon. Below are some examples from the collection. Click here to see the full Martha Stewart Collection with Chilewich. You can also purchase these items through the Martha Stewart shop on Amazon.

The collection includes: 

Original Weaves. Available as placemats, table runners, and rugs in stocked and custom sizes. 

Boxwood. A dobby weave that combines geometric precision with a lacy, openwork quality created by a loom-based pattern known as huck lace. Also available as felt-backed coasters. 

Coverlet. Inspired by the bold geometry of patterns created by overshot weaving, a technique closely associated with coverlets found in American homes as early as the seventeenth century. 

Ribbons. A weave of ribbon-like bands inspired by the woven patterns of traditional square handkerchiefs framed by colorful borders of intersecting lines. 

Rosette. A nuanced celebration of cabbage roses, whose abundant blooms have been a staple of Martha’s own flower gardens for decades. 

Damask. A jacquard weave that reimagines the organic symmetry and tone-on-tone elegance of damask textiles, including intertwining flowers and acanthus leaf motifs. 

Handkerchief. Playful precision inspired by vintage table linens framed by hand-embroidered borders. 

Scroll. A contemporary interpretation of the botanically inspired embroidery that borders vintage table linens. 

Tufted Texture in Fresh Hues: Available as all-weather floor mats in stocked and custom sizes. 

Heathered. In hues handpicked by Martha Stewart, tufted “Shag” floor mats bring texture and traction to any space.
