Gray Mola


Since we've had gray as our focus (stay tuned for tomorrow's reveal!!) I've been noticing a lot of gray -- especially how nice a background it can make.  And then today, while looking for something in the closet, I came across this mola from Mexico, I think, that my mother-in-law had in her things when she died.  As the only Textile Obsessed person in the family, it and others came to me. 

But isn't it striking?  Gray, red and white make a very strong combination.

Tomorrow may prove otherwise but I am convinced that gray works best with other hues (however subtle) as highlights.

I like this a lot.

What an intriguing design on that Mola! would look really nice on the back of a vest or jacket.

I've never seen a mola with such restrained color. I love it. I completely agree that it is very striking -- this would completely derail my piece if mine were not already finished!
