I fell in love with this pretty floral cotton fabric.
Then there was this knit fabric that was similar to a maxi dress made by Mimi. Not sure what this will be.

A box of fabric from EOS
Not too long ago I said I was going on a fabric and pattern diet. I have fallen off that wagon. A brown box came yesterday with fabric from EOS. I started out only planning to buy lining fabric to go with the navy blue lace fabric acquired from Mood recently. I bought three colors as I was not sure and still am not sure what color to use underneath.
I have sapphire, nude and marine linings. I think I want a contrast and thought the sapphire blue would be nice; or go with nude for an even more contrast or the marine color is perfect match to the lace fabric. What do you think, contrast or match? It will be a dress.

What's EOS??
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see what you make with your lvely finds!
EOS stands for EmmaOneSock. I am lazy typing some time. You have probably seen her website, if not is www.emmaonesock.com
DeleteOh, I especially like that stripe with the flowers. And, yes, Mimi made some stunning maxis with hers.
ReplyDeleteI love Emma One Sock, but am on a fabric-buying diet. :)
I am suppose to be on that same diet and I am not doing so well with it!!!!
DeleteI like the beige lining for the navy lace...and nice fabrics! I understand how those made their way to your house!
ReplyDeleteI am leaning toward the beige.
DeleteNice fabrics! What colour shoes do you plan to wear? I thnk beige or the lighter blue.
ReplyDeleteProbably navy blue shoes, though a flesh color would be considered as well. I can say I have ruled out the marine lining as it really will not showcase the lace as much.
DeleteI can't decide which lining I'd like without looking at each combination ... but I would lean towards more contrast to emphasize the beauty. I was on a fabric & pattern diet, too and my box of fabric arrived today :)
ReplyDeleteYour prints are gorgeous!
I have decided to not use the marine blue lining as it does not really show off the lace as much. I am really liking the print fabrics and need to whip something up soon.
