Proclaimed the “Fabric Queen” by ELLE Décor Magazine, Gretchen Bellinger and her fabled collection continue to garner praise with multiple “Best of Year” (BOY) Awards from Interior Design Magazine, a “Top 101” product distinction from House Beautiful, and a “Best Overall Design” award from NeoCon,
among others.

To interior designers and admirers of luxury textiles worldwide, the name Gretchen Bellinger is synonymous with uncompromising quality, beauty, and textile innovation.

“Miss Gretchen’s textiles are luxurious, unique, and comfortable: visually, physically and emotionally. I have known Gretchen and her fabrics since my early days in the business…her work inspires. I’m using Golden Apples™ again —I love using this fabric on JM Frank style sofas, as a big sleeping pillow-sized one, right in the middle of the sofa as Frank used to style them.

--Nestor Santa-Cruz, Washington DC

“I have long been a fan and supporter of Gretchen Bellinger Textiles. I fell in love with the ‘hand feel’ of her work during my early days at Skidmore, Owings and Merrill. No Executive Suite was complete without Gretchen Bellinger velvet.

The product has remained consistent through the years. The Team is conscientious, honest and goes beyond to deliver a stellar product. “
