The Beginning
A year ago I posted my first 4 part series, 2017 Spring Colors – Tie the Trend 2 Your Sewing in February. It was my way to deal with the cold of Wisconsin and stay sane, in a land where spring truly begins in mid-April. My selfish selflove wasn’t the only reason for the series.
Wanting to encourage the modern home sewers to embrace color, the series was brought into fruition. I know there’s a lot of people who wouldn’t dear touch certain colors with a 10 foot pole.
My goal is to keep you in the know of color trends and show how they introduce new life to your wardrobe.

I too am excited about chatting. And trust me I did lol, in my video! It goes live tomorrow.
Spring color is my jam forever. Spring all year around even in the dark cold I’d rather be in a cave with a fire kind of winter. I can’t wait to see how this comes together Renata!

Thanks Elizabeth, I got over those butterflies in my stomach about recoding
So ready for Spring, but still cold here in the northeast. I’m working on a spring capsule, it took me awhile.to figure out the color palette, probably because of the four snowstorms we’ve had in the last 4 weeks! Looking for colorful inspiration!

Hi Lisa, I second that, Spring is long overdue and I have a 1/2 Marathon in 4 weeks. It really can get depressing . The weather is really weird this year. I would love to see your Spring Capsule, I’ve never done a capsule wardrobe before. Color cheers me up, I hope my Welcome Spring post helps. My video will be up soon (Major Technical difficulties ), it’s a bit long though. I’ll work on being more efficient next week . Have a wonderful day!
