The deep emeralds and rosy pinks\u00a0are balanced by light and airy prints, and the palette is anchored by a deep\u00a0charcoal (gray is a gentler\u00a0alternative to black, easy to wear and so versatile). \u00a0I’ve included a mix of fabric substrates (corduroy, double gauze, chambray, quilting cotton) and tones. \u00a0I think the girlier prints would lend themselves nicely to a Playtime Tunic<\/a>\u00a0or Hide-and-Seek Dress<\/a>\u00a0with contrast yoke. (I made one in the eggplant chambray here<\/a>\u00a0last spring,\u00a0and\u00a0my daughter wears it often.)<\/p>\n For boys, I’d love to see\u00a0a casual corduroy version of the Art Museum Trousers <\/a>with a tiger Sketchbook Shirt<\/a>! \u00a0Who else is ready for some early fall sewing?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" A color palette inspired by the summer transition to fall: rosy pink, emerald green, and charcoal, balanced by light and airy prints.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":14985,"featured_media":12398,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_bbp_topic_count":0,"_bbp_reply_count":0,"_bbp_total_topic_count":0,"_bbp_total_reply_count":0,"_bbp_voice_count":0,"_bbp_anonymous_reply_count":0,"_bbp_topic_count_hidden":0,"_bbp_reply_count_hidden":0,"_bbp_forum_subforum_count":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[20687],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-12399","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-general"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/oliverands.com\/community\/content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/field-greens.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p5jZS5-3dZ","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":11314,"url":"https:\/\/oliverands.com\/community\/blog\/2014\/06\/color-palette-warm-and-cool.html","url_meta":{"origin":12399,"position":0},"title":"color palette: warm and cool","author":"Liesl Gibson","date":"June 5, 2014","format":false,"excerpt":"Here's a warm and cool color palette to give you some summer sewing inspiration.","rel":"","context":"In "general post"","block_context":{"text":"general post","link":"https:\/\/oliverands.com\/community\/list\/general"},"img":{"alt_text":"","src":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/oliverands.com\/community\/content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/warm-and-cool.jpg?resize=350%2C200&ssl=1","width":350,"height":200},"classes":[]},{"id":11460,"url":"https:\/\/oliverands.com\/community\/blog\/2014\/06\/color-palette-summer-fresh.html","url_meta":{"origin":12399,"position":1},"title":"color palette: summer fresh","author":"Liesl Gibson","date":"June 19, 2014","format":false,"excerpt":"This week's color pallet is inspired by the freshness of summer.
