One person commented they caught the plan for the February LaPetité group. (brights) Miss K. And it was meant for her!
She likes brights… you would too after living in whitewhitewhite dorm rooms & apartments for the last 4 years. Her job … is decorated in white, gray, and black. She wears white, gray, and/or black to work everyday.
She decorates with COLOR!!
One evening last week while both of us were snowed in, we shopped online…. together…. over the phone. Funny!!
This arrived on Monday from the Fat Quarter Shop!
I’m going to try to make the pattern for our monthly charm packs…. from fat quarters! We’ll see how this goes!
There are 9 stars in the center of the quilt so I’ll start there with these 9 fabrics. The tan is the background and the bottom print for the binding. I happily found some clearance fabric (white w/ a pink design) for the backing.
Do you like this combo? What colors do you use in your decorating?
I LOVE this combo!!
When I first moved into my own house, the first place we owned and could paint, we painted BOLD, BRIGHT colors in every room! Lots of blues/greens made their appearances : )
We’ve been back in rentals since then, so no color on the walls (except the house now has one peachy-orangey wall, which I didn’t like a ton but is growing on me now). I bring in as much color in other ways as I can, though. The flowers outside, year ’round, has sort of calmed my need for COLOR EVERYWHERE that I had when I first moved out of dorm/rental whites.
Definitely prefer brights over pastels, though.
Your color choices are outstanding! I love to use greens and blues. But I’m also partial to yellow…
Very much K’s apartment. It’s gonna look wonderful in there! I’ll bet she’s excited. Love the brights but decorate with a darker theme (as if you didn’t already know). 😉
I love those fabrics, and I know K will too! All of my walls are white, or off white, but the things I hang on the wall, and the foo foos sitting around are where my color comes from. I get restless too often, and need to change, so since I don’t like to paint, walls do not have color.
I can’t wait to see what you make with that beautiful fabric!
[…] I had 3 projects coming home soon to roost that I’d work on starting Monday. See posts on Fabrics for K and Super […]
I like the colours but am sooo not a busy patterned person. These will look stunning together tho’ 🙂
My walls are all coloured, the bathroom is going that way too – although the tiles are white.
[…] ready, too!! Soon we were busy with our projects. I brought along my LaPetité for February in K’s choice of fabrics. Lori was working on granddaughter treats, Shelly was painting a canvas, Michelle & Sue L […]
