colour

It was colour day today. I finished the border on my first ever quilt...



And finished my design and initial stitching of a Broken Dishes quilt...



We had to make a quilt with just two principle colours, "pushing the range" of each colour. I chose pink and yellow and wanted it to look like candy. I think it's playful and bright and fun. Even the scraps are pretty.



The photos don't really do them justice. For instance, there are, in fact, quite a few right angles in the actual quilts (though I must humbly admit that there are some irregularities, too). In any case, I just want to make my solemn declaration that I love playing with colour now every bit as much as I did when I was six years old. Thanks be to God.
