WHO PUT THE COLOURS IN THE RAINBOW?
Another week has whizzed past and it's been full of crafting, selling, playing keyboards and enjoying the beautiful weather, how lucky am I?
The desk looks like this today:
I'm sorting out the leftover strips and scraps into colour families having seen a rainbow quilt tutorial on YouTube:
They're organised into groups of similar tones (to my eye anyway!) and I'll sew them onto 6 inch strips of white cotton and then decide what to do! I've got two strip quilts already made so will try something else.
I had to make a quick card and thought I'd use those stencils I bought recently, not with watercolours but a ready made background:
The flowers are metallic which stands out against the grey background, it was a pleasant twenty minutes of playing!
Some of you will have seen on FB that the craft fair went well on Sunday though it was quieter than anticipated:
After a couple of extra donations, the total stands at £162 so I'm happy with that! The creme egg creatures went well, the chickens and Peter Rabbit were especially popular:
The ladies doing the refreshments must all have been chicken keepers because they cleaned me out - I think that putting the egg inside makes them look all plump and happy! Some sheep and chicks went too.
So I've been making more chickens since then for the next fair on 29th March:
Having a gossip...... *grin* I ought to make a couple more Peter Rabbits as well but they're a faff to make and I don't know if I've got enough time, we'll see,
There you go, another post of random nonsense from South West Wales - it'll be my 700th post in four weeks, how did that happen?! Hope you have a great week xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
