Collection: Rashida Coleman-Hale-Ruby Star Society

A designer at Ruby Star Society, Rashida Coleman-Hale has been making things ever since she can remember.  Her passion includes textiles, surface pattern design and illustration.

​

She studied fashion design at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City. Not sure if fashion was her calling, she traded her sewing machine for a computer and worked as a freelance graphic designer. 

​

Her passion for sewing was rekindled in 2006 after the arrival of her first child, and she began the blog, I Heart Linen to document her re-born creative life and her life as a stay-at-home mommy. 

​

A fabric designer as well as an author, Rashida has designed fabric for Timeless Treasures and Cloud 9 Fabrics.

Her first book, I Love Patchwork, was published by Interweave press in Fall 2009 and was awarded the 2010 PubWest Book Design Bronze Medal in the How-To/Crafts category. Her second book, Zakka Style, was published by C&T Publishing in Fall 2011and was the 2012 International Book Awards winner in the Crafts/Hobbies/How-to category.
