The Colors Of My Life..

After seeing all my colorful fabrics lined up in the cabinet, I decided to share more colors from my studio. Brynwood is always awash with colors in the form of fabrics, but the threads are more often protected in drawers and I only see them when I am in need of a particular hue.
It's a shame, really. The beautiful threads inside those drawers always make me happy when I see them.
Most of the spools in the top drawers are cottons, with a few polyester shades for garment sewing. I also have some gorgeous, vintage silks, which I save for special projects.
But the shiny, rayon spools help me to create wonderful machine embroidered designs. I look inside these drawers and see all the colors of the rainbow...all the colors for my creative endeavors...
All the colors of my life.
I'll share more of them soon.

  3. Hi Donna! Just love looking at those beautiful colours! Would you believe I even bought a box of the rayon machine embroidery threads because they were so pretty, and I don't even have an embroidery machine! :)
    someone told me that they might be ok for hand applique but at the moment I am just happy to look at, and admire them.;-0
