Our spin on '50s border prints with a beautiful Camp Gertie scene! These are inspired by vintage paint by numbers; the more you look, the more details you find! We worked a lot on the scale of the artwork — we wanted a sweeping skyline and beautiful trees. If you look closely, you’ll spot a vintage pink Shasta and woodland animals frolicking through the woods! We’ve given you your choice of two beautiful colorways: one is sunset inspired and the other is a sunny sky blue.

Gertie used 6 yards of Cotton Sateen in the blue colorway.

We took direct inspiration from some rare vintage Girl Scout fabric! We’ve included all of your favorite Charm Scouts and some of our favorite camping scenes. Plus, you can show off the badges you’ve earned so far! Opt for our vintage white layout or a more modern colorway!

Note that we provided options running both lengthwise and widthwise to give you flexibility for different garments and patterns. Here’s some recommendations for each type.
