Fabric Crush

 

Fabric on our new pillows

With July 4th around the corner, I have a major crush on all things red white and blue! My mom just made some gorgeous pillows for our living room in a wonderful shade of red and tan. With a new table on the way (more on that later), I'm excited to start accessorizing our kitchen as well. 

My mother in law gave me a sewing machine for a Christmas gift, and I'm excited to finally unpack it and start creating! Both my mom and mother in law are super talented seamstresses and I only hope that I can somehow provide that skill to our family. For now, I'll keep with straight lines and simple projects. Maybe I can take on a shift dress by the time we have a little one. Side note- hopefully it's a girl, or a boy that's cool with wearing little girl shift dresses.

Right now we have plain linen curtains, and I'm thinking about sewing new ones along with cushions for the wood chairs. Here's some fabrics I'd love to incorporate into the eat-in dining area:

I recently picked up some cute dish towels in this Waverly fabric and I'm obsessed with them. The fabric isn't something that could be used year round on chair cushions/curtains, but I wanted to share anyways!
