Colours




The last couple of days I have been dying batches of wool.
Dipping pieces into colours and trying out different shades.
I love seeing what variations I can get.
Colour evokes all sorts of ideas and the blue grey became my stormy clouds.
The soft lilac pink had to be delicate and spring like.
Time has flown by as I become engrossed in my stitching.
I should make New Year resolutions, but I never seem to be disciplined enough to keep them.
The only two I will make is to keep being creative, as much as I can be, and not to be so messy and unorganized, oops I think I have failed that one already!

Hello,

I saw the comment you left on The Westcountry Buddha's blog and thought I would pop on over to say hi. I'm also a blogger from Warwickshire and mainly quilt, knit and embroider.

Your work is fantastic and puts mine to shame - I'm a novice only been quilting for just over a year. Pop on over to The Contented Quilter and say hi sometime.
