Makeover Monday: 6/29

Good Monday morning, Friends! Thank you to all who voted for the makeover fabric this week. It was a tie, so I worked my fingers to the bone to do both. I told you I'm a pathological pleaser!

Remember the retro scarf fabric?



I paired it with a rust cotton, and I really like the delicate and bold contrast that resulted, don't you?

And that gorgeous cobalt and violet pillowcase?

Here it is in bowl form! I was pleasantly surprised by this one. I knew I loved the colors, but the fabric was almost as thin as gauze. I was afraid it wouldn't have enough substance, but my fears were unfounded. It worked up to be a sweet little shape, and it is both sturdy and light as a feather!

Here's hoping you had a great weekend, and that you have a wonderful week. So, do you have a favorite now that the makeovers are complete?
