Bright and Light....

Blue is the colour chosen for this month's Rainbow Scrap challenge.  Funnily enough during the week I was working on getting some more blocks sewn together for another small quilt for PICU and quite a few of the blocks do have either bright or light blue in them.


I had enough light blue fabric to use for binding this one with which I finished off when joining  Cheryll and the rest of the "gang" for our regular first of the month Friday night FNwF.   Just letting you know that while we all have to "socially distance" ourselves from family and friends Cheryll is running FNwF on both the first and second Friday nights of each month.   Something positive and fun to look forward to.

My garden is looking so much better for all the attention that it has been receiving over the last couple of weeks.    On the way to  my sewing room I pass by this gorgeous hibiscus.    It is enjoying all the overnight rain that we are having lately.


As is mushroom field that has sprung up in the front garden.


And the neighbour's tibouchina gives a lovely splash of colour over the fence.    


Back into the sewing room to make a start on pinning together some of those scraps that have been cut over the last couple of days.  


These have been put aside for the moment in order to make a start on sewing up those girl size 14 skirts.  

Linking with So Scrappy 

Back soon and in the meantime


Happy sewing all

You're making good use of your scraps. We found a little mushroom forest this morning too.

That is a fun quilt with a lot of well-timed blues!!! Pretty flower and flowering tree, too.

Very pretty comfort quilt. Love that beautiful bush in your neighbor's yard and that hibiscus is GORGEOUS! Too bad our RSC color isn't yellow this month to celebrate its lovely color! Stay safe and have a good week. See you at FNwF & RSC next week!

Such a happy quilt and it looks like another lovely one is in the works too. Your garden really is responding to the rain - those flowers look gorgeous.
