A day of pattern and colour

Yesterday was a day of pattern and colour. Kay the Rowan rep brought fabric and books and patterns and more fabric and we looked at Midwest Modern and Midwest Modern 2 Oranges and browns in the strong complex patterns of Midwest Modern

It's always so hard to choose. I'm not the best at making decisions in the first place but this was hard, believe me. We looked at Daisy Chain.

Strong colour and complex designs of the Daisy Chain Collection - these have quite a retro feel about them.

Picking fabric tells you lot about yourself.... I'm beginning to suspect that I like blues and greens and it's quite a blues and green collection really. Absolutely stunning greens and blues...

'Daisy bouquet in Indigo'

and...

'Pressed flowers in turquoise'

We looked at books. We looked at patterns and we looked at how Amy herself combines these fabrics to achieve the looks she does.

You've probably seen these patterns before but I'm sure I read somewhere that the pretty little Velma bag is being discontinued.

Oh, and look what we found in 'Midwest Modern' a little patchwork scarf trimmed with yo-yo's! Now there's an idea.

When there is a hard choice like this to be made I usually weaken and say ' a little of each please' I like the daisy chain, not seen any up close. One of my students is having a go at Amy BUtler's Zinna flower cushion at the moment

I know what you mean about greens and blue. I find myself going for those colours too. I like the Daisy chain range.

I'm a greens and blues person too. I sometimes have to fight myself really hard to stop myself only doing stuff that is largely green and/or blue. Those fabrics looks absolutely gorgeous. x

Oooh what lovely fabrics! I love the look of the daisy chain collection. I'm on a drive to use up the fabrics I have before buying any more, but it's hard to resist those lovely prints!
