Working on Inspiration


First of all, yes I did skip yesterday. I mostly just forgot, as all of our 4th of July celebrations took place yesterday! But, to make up for it a little bit, I am going to do 2 posts today.


I'm still trying to figure out exactly what I want to do for this project. A good friend bought me this beautiful fabric at a store in Denver called The Fancy Tiger


And then I decided to go in and find some other fabric that would compliment it:


And I figured that a good base fabric would be muslin or linen, so now I have all the fabrics I need... just not a solid vision for what to do with them.


I always like sundresses, so my original idea was a knee-length dress with a sweetheart neckline, and ruffles of the two accent fabrics along the neckline. And also pockets in the two accents. Something kind of like this:


If you happen to have any ideas, I would love to hear them!

  1. I like this combination of fabrics and themes. Are these elements intended to tie in with the July 2nd material from Niger? Looking forward to seeing where this project goes! Happy 4th of July to you and your family!

  2. This is actually a separate project from the Niger fabric... haha, that would be a very interesting combination of patterns! :) Happy 4th to you and yours as well!
