FABRIC INSPIRATION 3

Hey Everyone.  I have loved everything Ralph Lauren since I can remember- and I can remember quite a bit.  His designs are so classic- everything from his housewares to his amazing clothing.  I found this bag online and fell in love with the fabric;

Ralph Lauren

This is the Printed Blanket Hobo bag and it can be yours for the SALE price of 1169.00!  Yikes!  I love it but not that much!
However-I do love the fabric.  I love the earthy colours that are in it.  No one, and I mean NO ONE does Southwest better than Ralph.  There is something very authentic about his colouration and they way he uses the southwest motif.  I don't think it ever gets old.
Anyways....  I wanted to pull out some colours from this amazing bag:

I wasn't able to fit the names of the colours I chose so I will list them below.  They start in the upper left corner and go to the right and in descending order:

1.  Tatami Tan SW6116
2.  Luxurious Red SW6314
3. Kirsch Red SW6313
4.  Red Tomato SW6607
5. Trusty Tan SW 6087
6.  Java SW6090
7. Glimmer SW 6476
8. Tidewater SW 6477
9.  Luxe Blue SW 6537
10. Dignified SW6538
The only ones that I am slightly unsure are the greeney blues.  I wasn't sure if I should go with Glimmer and Tidewater or if I should go with something a little more muted like Window Pane SW6210 and Rainwashed SW 6211.
Again, I am going by what I see on my monitor.  But I must say I love all of these colours together.
Ralph Rocks!

Have a great day everyone.

FABRIC INSPIRATION 2

I found this fabric at Designer Fabrics.  It is such a great online fabric store.  They have loads of fabrics to chose from at great prices.  They are located here in Canada.  They also have a regular store that is located in Toronto which has an even bigger selection of fabric. 
I especially liked this fabric for many reasons.  One being the colours-all those blues, smoky blues and grays.  Two, I loved the motif-a very organic Jacobean style floral fabric.  And three, I love linen.  Linen is one of my all time favourite fabrics.  So here is that fabric I chose:

Remember when I am picking out colours for this I am doing so from my computer.  I so wish I had the actual fabric.  Hmmm.....  perhaps a purchase in the future is in order!

Have a great day everyone!!

FABRIC INSPIRATIONS

Hey everyone.  I came across a fabric today at Tonic Living.  They really do have some great fabrics!  So fun, so bright.  I thought I would share some inspiration today.  Now remember-everyones monitors are different so colours may show up differently.


This fabric is "BIRDS OF NORWAY" by Michael Miller.  It is so whimsical and full of fun colour.

I don't have the actual fabric in front of me but am going off of my computer.  This is just a little something for inspiration.
Have a great day everyone.
