Having a nice gathering today with the embroidery group and have done all my prep work to show them how to do English paper piecing by making a small mug rug. Its just so much fun sharing all my knowledge with these wonderful persons. I am not much of a teacher but with lots of fun we get the projects done. The main thing is that I am a lefty and they are all right handed.
I am following a blog of Jenny of Elefantz, Gentle Domesticity and its such a wonderful inspiration to me.
Today is about the use of color. I love bright colors and have always used them much to the horror of family and friends who seem to think that my home is too busy. hehehehe I just don't care as its nice to wake up to all this wonderful bright positive vibes. Being in our new place and a much cooler climate and also having a very nice light and sunny place, does change my color scheme a bit. Our old home was a dark place because of the heat we had there, houses were placed so that there is not much sun flow into the house to keep it cool. Which is necessary because the temps go over 40 degree C during the long summer months. Whereas now we do welcome sunlight and heat here.
Well now to get working on my 2nd single bed quilt. Have a great day.
