Stripes are chic

I know I've been very absorbed by beads the pas couple of weeks but I haven't boxed my sewing. I'm in planning mode rather. 
I recently scored that blue fabric for a song ( I think it came down to $1 a yard). It doesn't really have a right side and a wrong side but rather a lighter and a darker one. I like both and the color marries perfectly with the chocolate brown of the basement's sofa. Out with the old yellow pillow cases and in with the peacock blue. I started with stripes but I'd like to make the other ones in other variations of the same fabric. Currently digging for other design ideas for bicolor patterns.

    Interesting fabric. The light and dark shades make for a fabulous combination. I'm loving the stripes.

    Beautiful look. I do love stripes and the two different fabrics create a beautiful contrast.
