fostering octuplets

i had a recent etsy customer who ordered 8 of my jewelry rolls as bridesmaids gifts for her upcoming wedding.

i was delighted when she decided to use each of the 8 dot prints i carry as her fabric choices. she turned me loose to pick the zippers and ribbon colors myself.

i was nervy trying to put together cohesive, stylish, and yet a wide-ranging set of colors. i considered that a wedding party can often have wildly different taste and fictionally typecasted each jewelry roll for a corresponding girl: from tomboy little sister of the groom (green and white for her) to preppy sorority sister (pink and navy for her) .

i could not me more smitten by how these turned out! i love how they are clearly a unified set (you know i love an iteration), but are all so distinct.

why, yes, they're octuplets, but they're fraternal! (is what i will tell people in stores as i push them around in their octostroller. (i may have gotten a tad attached to these little fellas along the way).

i tried to imagine which color combo would be most likely to cause a bridesmaid catfight as they all scrambled to own it and jumped around wildly on which was my favorite.

sealing up the package to send to my sweet bride customer was a little difficult, but luckily i took some pictures of our time together to remember my octuplets as they leave for their forever homes.

i want to live somewhere under this rainbow.

they are so happy to see us! look how they're smiling!

looking good from up here too.

lined up for their processional.

if you held a gun to my head, i think the coral/gray combo is my favorite. followed closely by the aqua/yellow. but then again i love the red/teal and the sky/tangerine. ok, you probably just had to shoot me with that gun, didnt you? dangit. i really left you no choice.

so which baby roll is your favorite?
