Merry Happy by Kimberly Knight - Layer Cake
The Merry Happy collection by Kimberly Kight for Ruby Star Society is a cheerful, retro-inspired Christmas fabric line that blends nostalgic holiday imagery with Kimberly’s signature playful style. It’s her first solo holiday collection for the brand, and it captures a bright, whimsical take on Christmas rather than a traditional red-and-green-only palette.
The line features:
- festive gummy bears in holiday colors
- ornaments and confetti-style prints
- “Find the Pickle” novelty prints inspired by the Christmas-tree pickle tradition
- vintage-inspired motifs with modern color combinations
The overall aesthetic feels both mid-century vintage and freshly modern, which is very characteristic of Kimberly Kight’s work. Her designs are heavily influenced by vintage textiles from the 1940s–1960s, especially quirky novelty prints and cheerful conversational fabrics.
