ORGANZA MISTS
Creating the hazy, soft look of watercolor confetti is simpler
than it looks. The most fascinating aspect of organza as
appliqué is that you can blend colors together to create
darker hues, or completely different colors.
To create the fresh and dewy look of our flowers, we added
a layer of white organza with a beautiful sheen, which
softened the bright colors beneath. The bold threads on top
create a modern contrast that makes each block look like
it’s own work of art. It’s important to note that the watercolor
confetti style achieves the look of painted watercolor due
to the 1/8” raw edge of organza left behind. Strategically
placing the organza can actually create a more blended
edge if that’s the look you want to achieve.
The folded fabric borders add the final touch of magic with
the mint patterned fabric adding just enough interest without
taking anything away from the appliqué.
