{Q: what’s your favorite color or handmade item?}

Hello there! I’ve got some meetings scheduled for the morning and then I “booked” myself to my studio for the afternoon. It’s going to be a great day — I love me some time with my sewing machine.

Here are some of my favorite items in the shop right now ~ can you see I’m drawn to yellow? :]

  1. i’m drawn to red here lately…
    i love that you can easily add in other accents colors and be ready for whatever holiday lies ahead…

    handmade items?
    knitting, of course. thanks to you and allison!
    and words- anything with a word or phrase on it.

  2. My favorite handmade item in my etsy shop is my “wish” pillow in majestic oak fabric by joel dewberry. It’s yellow. I’m lovin yellow, and esp. yellow and gray together! I love how you combine those two colors. BTW, the spools are so cute in that picture! Wishing you a happy day!

  3. For some reason I’ve been drawn to springy plaids lately. Hot pink, yellow, green, etc. As somebody else commented, I think it’s the cold dreary weather we’ve been having. These colors feel fresh and alive! I just finished sewing a runner for my kitchen table and it brightens up the whole room!!

  4. sew, i love your spool of “thread” idea in the vase. totally digging through my recycling box in my sewing room to get all the spools out. i always thought it was impossible to go through a spool of thread…… but not so much! it’s amazing how fast i go through them! cute idea!

    my current color…..pinks, but not baby pink. i am in the mood for springy colors! i am also drawn to material on line that i haven’t broke down to buy yet….

    what are some of your favorite fabric sites???

  5. I am forever drawn to green and grey. they are my absolute fav color and they are our colors for my wedding in October :) I’ve been super drawn to all things handmade. I have a cute new gussy wristlet, I ordered a mini modern pearl necklace from from Allora Handmade, some rosette earrings from Love-stitched and I love drikab – you should for sure check out her shop, i just got a jute tote from her :: http://www.etsy.com/shop/DrikaB?ref=pr_shop :)

  6. I’ve been sewing up cute ruffly burp cloths and some simple baby wipes. The color scheme for the nursery is blue, beige and green, so I’m into those colors right now.

  7. Right now, I’m into seersucker. Anything seersucker. While not a color exactly, it’s a fabric that comes with so many memories of spring and summer in the South–my Daddy’s suits, little Easter outfits and egg hunts, gardens and fresh tomatoes, sweet tea, and hot, humid weather. I’m so over this winter weather business!!!!

  8. I jumped on the bandwagon of the mustard yellow….!
    My favorite color combo is mustard yellow, grey, and deep red..throw a touch of black and whatever you make will look awesome!

  9. Yellow, gray, aqua….and a new love for pink. I’ve never been a fan of pink, but recently I’m loving a little bit of pink thrown in with other colors.

  10. Right now, my favorite color combo is turquoise, green and white. It looks so fresh! It reminds me of Spring which I doubt will ever comme back in Canada with all that snow that we had yesterday!

  11. well since I just ordered my yellow woodgrain tote yesterday … I guess I’m drawn to yellow and gray too!! :)

    But, seriously I’ve been really drawn to gray lately…. loving it! :)

  12. I am obsessed with teal, mustard & grey right now. Also tiny floral prints. I just ordered a ton of fabric off etsy to get started on my spring creations. I live in Arizona so our spring will start really soon!

  13. right now it seems I have been drawn to brown and a little yellow too!
    brown seems to be everywhere in the crafts I do…..I need to get away from it for a little while! =)

  14. i love gray, brown and purple. together, separate, any combination of the three. :) i also love allora handmade’s necklaces and your beautiful bags! :)

  15. I can never decide… I love colour… I think pink is a favorite but then… just as I say that all the other colours in my head start shouted “WHAT ABOUT ME!!”… lol… um… yeah they talk. lol

  16. Anything with mustard, pea green or rust. Maybe I should have lived during the 70’s? I don’t know what it is, but earth tones with these three are definitely what make me happy :)

  17. Love purples and emerald greens.

    I am really loving the flowered knit/crochet headband/earwarmers right now. its cold is Saskatchewan and its nice to have something cute to keep warm in.

  18. My all-time favorite color is tiffany blue or any variation of it really. I also really like gray and fuchsia. But, ever since I laid eyes on your yellow woodgrain tote, I’ve been in love with yellow! I’m so ready for spring to get here!

  19. Hi Maggie! Super excited for all you have accomplished and hope you and Zack are doing great! I added your button to my blog! I haven’t been blogging for too too long, but LOVE it! Good luck in all you do!

  20. Yellow yellow yellow. Its my most favorite color so i am always drawn to it.
    I am lusting over pretty hair clips, totes, and journals a lot.
