I still can't wrap my head around the impeding colder time of the year. We actually had a preview just before Halloween with some flurries. Bug was all excited and wanted to go play out side. Me, not so much. I figured I needed something cozy and colorful to stay warm in my new office. Between the voile top and satin back, I layered some low loft cotton quilt batting. That should be the perfect amount of warmth with some cheerful colors to fight off the gloom. I couldn't help adding a little ruffle for a touch of contrast.
What a good idea sandwiching the batting between the fine fabrics, it looks lovely but will be warm too.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty wrap!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful wrap. Love the idea of putting the batting in between the lighter fabrics. These make great gifts for all ages too.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the inspiration!
