such a great idea ...
and a room big enough
to not trip over it








these are some of the fabric samples
that arrived after dyeing them

1+2 are wool
2+4 wool with silk


beautiful fabrics but very thin
good for all year round except when it is very hot or very cold
so for winter i'd prefer something thicker

: the colors are about skin tones
when you go into how the color of your skin
is composed , you'll find that when you combine a color with it
it'll bring out a certain color of which your skin color is composed of

to keep it short : if you combine the right colors your complexion
changes for the better , like make-up , but there isn't any..

you can try this at home by putting fabric over the lower part
of your arm (in daylight) and watch what happens to your skin tone
... maybe nothing new to you , but i just found it fascinating

Love the thought behind these. Very poetic like the colors themselves.

I love your blog! I wish I could reinvent my wardrobe to be minimalist and comprise my tops with just button down oxfords. Life would be so much simpler.
