Paintbrush Studios invited me to participate in March Madness, Mad for Solids 2017 and obviously I said yes,  What is better than picking your own custom palette of 8 solid fabrics?  So what exactly is this event?  Well just like the March Madness basketball brackets, PB Studios has set up a friendly competition between 16 bloggers (fabric junkies) and we have been randomly placed into a bracket with daily voting by you guys.  All fun and no stress, sounds good to me!

You can see from the photos the eight fabrics that I chose from their  Painter's Palette Solids.  Aren't they pretty?  I have the names in the captions of each photo so you can tell exactly the name of each color.

We were asked to name our bundle and give a brief description of the inspiration behind it, which you can read below.

Floral Fiesta

A color palette inspired by the explosion of flowers in the Spring, the fiesta that comes after a long winter.  Happy, fun, vibrant, pretty, lively, bold, a celebration of color.  Just a touch of Mexican flair, the intensity of bright colors contrasted against stark white and dark midnight.

Ready to vote?  You can visit the Inspired by Fabric blog starting Monday, March 27 to cast your vote and voting is on Instagram as well.  Voting for my specific bracket will take place on Wednesday, March 29, 2017.  The first week will narrow down the group to the elite eight and week two will conclude with the final four and then onto the championship game.  That's not all, just by voting you stand a chance to win a bundle of fabrics as well!  Two randomly chosen voters will win quarter yard cuts of the winning bundle.  No reason not to go vote, it's easy and you can win fabric!  Thank you Paintbrush Studios for hosting such a fun event and inviting me to play along.

Beautiful bundle! So is making something with them part of the challenge, so is it all about the bundles? Have fun, whichever!

Marci--what a beautiful bundle of fabrics, and I love your description. Those pinks really catch my eye, and really are part of the explosion of color around my house, too! Good luck!!
