Ruby Star Society is more than just a fabric brand—it is a sisterhood of artists and dreamers. Founded on the belief that a good idea is worth fighting for, this collaborative collective works together to create some of the most exciting and recognizable fabrics in the modern quilting world.

Operating under the Moda Fabrics umbrella, Ruby Star Society is a woman-led creative powerhouse. The founding designers—Melody Miller, Alexia Marcelle Abegg, Rashida Coleman-Hale, Kimberly Kight, and Sarah Watts—share a unique workflow where they design independently but collaborate closely on color and scale. The result is a seamless ability to mix and match prints across different designers and collections.

The "Ruby Star" Difference

What sets Ruby Star Society apart is not just their bold graphics and modern color palettes, but the fabric itself. Most of their collections are printed on their signature Ruby Star Cotton—a lighter-weight, high-density quilting cotton that has a remarkably soft hand and superior drape.

This unique substrate makes their fabric incredibly versatile, perfect not just for quilting, but also for garment sewing (like skirts and blouses) where a stiffer cotton wouldn't sit right.

A Collective of Creativity

While each designer has her own distinct style—from Melody’s vintage-modern florals to Sarah’s whimsical illustrations and Alexia’s earthy textures—they are united by a spirit of collaboration.

• Melody Miller: Known for retro-inspired florals and vintage colorways.
• Alexia Marcelle Abegg: Famous for her hand-carved block print aesthetics and earthy "Warp & Weft" wovens.
• Rashida Coleman-Hale: Brings a fresh, graphic modernism featuring lush textures.
• Kimberly Kight: The queen of "repro" style, focusing on quirky, vintage-feed-sack inspired prints.
• Sarah Watts: Beloved for her storytelling illustrations, often featuring animals and magic.

Whether you are looking for their popular "Basics" (like Speckled) or their newest feature collection, Ruby Star Society fabrics are designed to inspire you to create fearlessly.
