Two almost identical groupings of fabric and yet one solid can change the entire look.  I was surfing fabric shops again and landed in Fresh Modern Fabrics and was instantly drawn to the black and white fashionista print.  I thought it was fun edgy and sort of has a vintage feel.  In the first grouping I think the petunia lets the fabrics keep the vintage feel and really makes the fashionista fabric be the star.  The second grouping was what I initially came up with, and I was back and forth on how much I love it.  In the end I had to show both because I really love the berry kona cotton with the rest of the prints.  It makes it pop.  It still has a vintage flare but modernizes it with modern colors.  I love the light blue in the Curio fabric next to the berry.  The star is no longer just the fashionista fabric but all the fabrics together.  And to me that makes an interesting combination.

Right now I’m not real sure what I’d make with these groupings.  Any thoughts?  I would love to see a group of people get these fabrics and post their creations.

I found these fabrics at two different fabric shops.  Neither of which I sponsor or have shopped at before.  The Petunia Kona and the Loulouthi were found at Marmalade Fabrics.  The Berry Kona, Fashionista, Tweedy Grey, and Curio fabrics were all found at Fresh Modern Fabric.
