Poster Sketch: Columns of Color

Have you ever found something so fun to do that you get totally hung up on it? Like when you learn a new stitch or beading technique, and suddenly have ideas for 50 different color variations? It’s always a thrill to dive into something new, especially when you really enjoy it.

Lately, I’ve been totally obsessed with making striped treasuries for the Oh Canada Team. I started with one, and suddenly my mind is filled with four-color palettes that must be curated! Perhaps some of these colorful columns will give you a little inspiration for you next color adventure. How about a stripey spiral rope, or a color-block cuff?

    Oh I totally know what you mean! Currently I am hung up on beaded ropes made with spiral stitch and bead soups with a solid core. I know it's a simple stitch but it's so much fun!

    I love your treasuries. I think this lot may be one of my favorites you have done.

    Thanks everyone! Color themed treasuries are probably the simplest to make, but the message is instantly clear. I need to keep practicing to get some more abstract themes down and Front Pager worthy!
