These are the fabrics I have picked out for my next set of projects. The colors are based on those in this amazing print Kim sent me.
Speaking of colors, I’m loving these too. Tim took this photo at a vintage auto show we happened upon in Indiana. Oscar was very pleased with it. He kept running from car to car and pointing and yelling “CAR!” to anyone who’d listen. He was quite a hit.
A captivating gang of 24 huggable, lovable creatures to sew—from classics like Margot, a topsy-turvy doll, and the button-jointed teddy bear Bjorn Bjornson, to irresistible Evelyn, a wool felt inchworm decked out in mod glasses and a kerchief, and Koji, a fiercely cute spiked softie monster. There’s something for everyone here—from kids to grown-ups and from beginning sewers to advanced dollmakers. Published by STC Craft, August, 2010.
im liking the new color scheme, especially the olive green/light blue of the car. does oscar annouce every airplane that flys overhead? that was one of eliots favorites, even if we were inside and he heard one.
Kaki with pink or light blue, the best choice ever !!
Can’t wait to see your new projects ;o)
Love those colors! I’m anxious to see what you create with them!
that black print near the bottom… when i was growing up in the early 80s my mom used to have some of that. i always loved it.
Pink and green together are so very pretty! Can’t wait to see your creations.
