    A 50’s-hued rainbow

    8 Feb 2012

    Above my sewing area, I’ve clipped together colour swatches for reference, and enjoy the little rainbow they make in that corner of my studio.

    It was only last week, however, when the very sweet Adele and Justin from H is for Home surprised me by sending a sage-green vintage Donald Clarke placemat to complete a set I’d bought from them years ago, that I realised I’d been using the rest of this set as the cornerstones of all my swatch collections. Thanks so much!

      Gorgeous collection of colours! And those placemats are wonderful. I love their slightly faded textural quality.

      Now I’m back home I can see the post full size (as opposed to my little iPhone screen!). Fabulous swatches – lovely to think that we’ve been part of your creative process! xx
