Since the year 2000, the experts at Pantone have been choosing a color of the year every year. Last year was Radiant Orchid (Sulky Color: #1032, Medium Purple).
This year Pantone has picked Marsala and I for one, could not be more thrilled with this choice for color of the year 2015!
I love this rich earthy color. I love the warm tone and sense of home it invokes in me.
In Sulky threads, it matches several of our colors. For Rayon, it is color #1237 Deep Mauve, in Sulky Cotton Thread it is #1190 Medium Burgundy, in Sulky Metallic Thread it is color #7010 Dark Copper but in Sulky Sliver it is color #8011 Lt. Copper. It is also the predominant color in Sulky Blendables thread color # 4010 Caramel Apple. I have been playing with some of these threads and have been very inspired!
I haven’t always agreed with Pantone and the color that they have chosen for a certain year (A few years ago they picked a yellow that I did not like at all!) but this year, bravo! What do you think? Will you be using this color of the year 2015 in your projects this year?
Happy Sewing!
Love this new color!!
I love it – so deep and yet, almost pastel.
O yes!! I love it!! Predominant color in my house.
