We love pure colour

ONLY READ ON IF ...... you like organising your coloured pencils in colour order!! other wise I'm afraid I might bore you to death with colours that seamingly look very kind of the same but are not...

Look at all of those yummy colours, I can hardly believe it myself but they are all our Umbrella Prints colours.. (minus a couple) and.... guess what... we are going to have some of these available as solid hemp/cotton and linen cotton in 2010! Yep, Amy and I have been working on a pure colour range that will perfectly (well except for normal print run variations) match our current range...

So now I am hoping you can help me choose... because we can't do them all at once... what is your favourite? (starting from the top left...)

Sorry - forgot to say on hemp/cotton.

BTW - will you be putting some more flip dolls in the shop soon?

Also would you be able to put together large packages of small squares for quilting - maybe when you've got the solids done? Love your stuff - it's so gorge!

I've always loved putting my pencils in colour order too.

Definitely love the seaglass best.
Also like bambi, and kimono red. And what about your gorgeous pink?

I'm a fan of seaglass, stormboy, lady grey, silky oak & kimono red (all on hemp/cotton). & I will have to make an effort to finally stop by your new place sometime soon!

Seaglass on latte linen/cotton is my favourite, then Seaglass on hemp/cottong. Also quite fond of Stormboy blue on latte linen/cotton. I really love the differences in colour on the different fabrics. Didn't realise before that it made so much difference.

being an organiser (pencils, wardrobe, everything) by colour i had to read on!
and what a tough choice....after a long time contemplating, my favourites are:
stormboy blue on hemp/cotton
seaglass on hemp/cotton
seaglass on latte linen/cotton
turtledove on hemp/cotton
but a nice, simple latte or off white which could coordinate with any of your prints would be a good addition.
good luck making a decision!

ooh very pretty. i like the turtle dove and stormboy blue on hemp/cotton. i'm obsessed with sewing in plain linens and cottons at the mo and there is virtually nothing available in terms of good colours in shops.

What a super idea to bring out matching plains. I love it!

(I'm a coloured pencil organiser so your post is right up my alley!)

[julie]

I like the olive on latte linen/cotton, turtledove on hemp/cotton, starfruit on natural hemp cotton to name a few...

[Jill]

I like the seaglass :-)

[Ashley]

ooh so pretty! I would definitely do kimono red, because reds are always so hard to match, so if people wanted to match your prints they would have a hard time finding a match anywhere else.

Personally i love turtledove, storm boy blue and seaglass, but they're just the colours i'm always drawn to!

mmmm what a fun job!
