Any WW bag designers willing to help? (warning: slow load, lots of pics)

[amyff]

Help! I am not creative at all! I think I want the backpack...or a small tote (which one would be the smallest?). I love these fabrics but I have NO idea how to cooridinate or how they would look in real life. FYI: Though I dress pretty simple (not too flashy or trendy), I love brighter colors.

I love this...but what would I put with it?

I don't know if this is over the top?

Any ideas?

I like the second combo. I'm biased though because I had an Ella bag made with those exact fabrics :) . Here's what they look like together:

Second one! :)
Here is a website that plays with those fabrics:

I fell in love with those paisleys too, and am using the purple one for the bottom and interior of my backpack, like this:

That bird pattern comes in other colors that would coordinate with the paisley colors you showed. There are also stripes that match those paisleys.

The website Rashmi posted helped me to see which ones coordinate within that line.

I love the 2nd one...the flower burst. I got an Ella with it but used this stripe as the bottom:

I found them at http://www.thecottonshop.net
Search on "temple flowers" and you will see the whole set of fabrics, including the three colors of paisley. There is also a gold on gold paisley from this series that does not show on the cottonshop site.

You can see it on http://www.artofthemidwest.com/amybutler/fabrics_temple.phtml
click on the "Wedding" group in the upper right.

I love the first striped one too.Where did you find it? Not sure what would go with it but it would be my pick.

Amy,

We must have similar taste! I am going back and forth between two striped fabrics and your second the combo flower burst/stripe - exact same colors. Kim said that she could match a solid for me on the bottom if I chose one of the stripes I'm thinking of. I am feeling so pressured right now to make up my mind, and if I look at any more fabric - I'll be seeing it in my sleep.

Thank you so much for all of the ideas and comments! I really love the first stripe and the second combo...I want both! Hmmmm....

Oh, and here is the link to the first striped print!

Great...while getting the link I found this fabric...
Now I am thinking I may need a beach bag, too! How cute is this:

I just have to decide!

Karen (and anyone else who might help),
What stripes would you say coordinate w/this paisley? I love it, but the hummingbirds just aren't me. If I could find a fabric to coordinate, I might just jump in on this co-op! ;)

TIA,

[stillplayswithbarbies]

how about this?

Or if you are not married to the lavender paisley, it comes in green and blue too that might be easier to match to a stripe:

Thanks, Karen. I found this combo a little while ago and was glad to see that you thought it went well together, too. The only thing is that I want a bag for me, smaller than Kim's bag sizes. Maybe I'll pick up another Ella Bag, as they've got a 25% off sale going on for their previous customers right now...that'd make it about as good a deal as the WW Co-op. Hmmmmm....

[stillplayswithbarbies]

Kim would probably customize the size for you. There is a small one listed on the co-op page that is not on her main site, did you look there?
