What came first, the fabric or the pattern?
Well, I guess if you're being technical, the pattern came first. Colette's Peony was released in September 2011 and I bought it immediately. And then I made it in black "poplin"--it was way too light to be real poplin, so thanks Denver Fabrics--and was disappointed by the fit. I still wore it, but I wasn't thrilled with it.
A month or so ago, I was snooping around on the Westminster site and saw Martha Negley's spring line, "Farmington." I loved it immediately. I picked up some olive Feathers from Alewives and found the Peony print at Purl.
Hmm. Peony print. Peony dress. Okay, they were obviously made for each other.
