first romance ~ green
Fresh cut grass, a crisp salad, a fragrant herb garden, sunshine after summer rain ... these are some of the things this green evokes for me.
When I started my 1/2" hexie quilt, I had no idea that 4 years later I'd ... well, still be working on it for one thing ... but more importantly, that I'd have the incredible fun of including my own fabric designs in it. In fact, the small scale of my hexies had a strong influence on the scale of my prints. I literally tested every single design in a 1/2" scale, just to make sure I could use them. And the print I used above is definitely one of my favourites. It just looks so fun, like someone tossed a huge armful of stemmed flowers into the air. It's just so ... happy, don't you think? :)
I'll be back tomorrow with something patriotic for Canada Day (and no, it won't be donuts ... or Justin Bieber) LOL!
