Colour Inspiration for October & November - Daffodil

Ahhhhh, spring! When all the greens seem extra fresh and the cheery daffodils poke their heads out from hibernation. Yellow, green and white is such a classic, crisp pairing and I couldn't help but add a touch of magenta as a bold contrast. These bright, cheery colours have inspired the colour inspiration for the Limited Edition Kit of October and November.   A kit inspired by the exuberant abundance of spring, in particular those golden yellow daffodils. The main fabric is a white embroidered tulle featuring yellow flowers with accents of green and cerise pink. I've paired it with our new spring green elastics...

The kit for February/March is a gorgeous selection of metallic goodies! The 'precious metals' of this month's colour scheme along with February's Valentines Day (or Galentines Day) inspired me to create an indulgent kit that you can treat yourself with.     The main fabric is black and golden beige ombre, embroidered tulle with gold and silver thread. Simply stunning!! I've paired it with an array of metallic elastics including a narrow, golden peach elastic perfect for strappy detailing.  Speaking of strappy details, this kit comes with an assortment of rings and sliders, including a heart slider so you can...

Colour Inspiration October - Lights Festival

October's kit, inspired by the colour theme of ‘Lights Festival’ features navy fabrics with pops of bright colour.  The main fabric is a navy embroidered tulle.  A fine navy embroidery radiates around small embroidered spots in hot pink, orange and aqua blue.  This fabric is non-stretch.    Along with the tulle there is a stretch satin in navy, perfect for layering under the tulle or on it’s own for a pair of briefs.  The stretch is approx. 35% in the cross-wise direction.
