18. TrooRa Magazine The Women’s Issue Spring ’23

One area of the Skinny laMinx shop is given over to the brand’s range of napkins and other table linen. Here, pairs of napkins are stacked according to color “families,” so customers are encouraged to mix and match designs in similar shades if they prefer. The table runner is made up of Orla in Fog, and on the top shelf is one of a selection of the brand’s “soft buckets,” which are ideal for storage or as indoor plant holders (skinnylaminx.com).

This Skinny laMinx display of tea towels would light up any room. Clockwise from top left, they are: Breeze in Persimmon, Eep! in Tomato, Across the Sea in Sunrise, Tall Protea in Leaf, Summer Weeds in Pollen, Borrowed Spoons in Sage, Summer Weeds in Pistachio, Pebble in Tomato, Pebble in Brazil, Across the Sea in Granite, Stig in Pine Nut and Across the Sea in Pacific (skinnylaminx.com).

So far in 2018, Skinny laMinx has launched its new “Colour Pop” pillow range—a range of scatter cushions in solid colors that coordinate perfectly with the brand’s patterns—and Moore, who enjoys a spot of teaching, has run pattern-design workshops in Eswatini (Swaziland) and Cape Town. In a recent blog post, Moore suggested that her current aim is to go beyond a single “Making Friday” to spending a minimum of three days a week “building a strong line in my studio.” The results are sure to bring yet more brilliant Skinny laMinx patterns and colors to homes and interiors around the globe. skinnylaminx.com

Mindful of all the other makers out there, Moore’s online and brick- and-mortar stores both stock color-coordinated packs of fabric pieces that are perfect for DIY projects of all kinds (skinnylaminx.com).
