A tropical ocean. A cloudless sky. A deep lake. The color blue is pure summer to me, and the variations on azure and blue-gray in this butterfly image are complimentary to many different skin tones and eye colors. (Of course those of us with blue eyes are especially flattered by these and often seek them out to wear.)
Fabrics: chambray, solid, butterflies, x dots, scallops, woodgrain
Sew a pair of sailboat pants in blue chambray with contrast facings, a hide-and-seek dress in x dots, combine prints on a pair of class picnic shorts. There are so many fun ways to mix and match!
All of these and more color inspiration images and fabrics can be found on our color palettes and fabric Pinterest board.
