A lot of times I struggle with picking fabrics for a project….always second-guessing myself as to which fabrics “GO” together.
Sometimes I will look for a photo that puts certain colors together….something like this…..

Now, do those boat colors really go together?
Based on a quick trip to my studio, the answer is YES……

Then I saw this fabric on the shelf…..

Look….some fabric designers put those same colors together!!!

If you are interested in the original photo, it was taken in Gaeta, Italy and yes, that is Vesuvius in the background!!
We had a fun day exploring the city…..
So the moral to this story is…..if you are struggling with color selection….find a photo and go from there!!!
