So many shades of blue and green. . .
Did you know?
Mary Jo's Fabrics, JoAnn Fabrics, Hancock Fabrics, even Walmart. . . .
Now have blue and green fabric in my Fabric.com shopping cart. . . more blues and greens in boyish like designs. So much fun like on a scavenger hunt looking for the perfect color and design!
Looking for polka dots, plaids, stripes, checks and anything that looks boyish. . . added a piece that is light lime green with jars filled with bugs, frogs and other assorted. . . that's so boyish. Brings back memories when my nephew collected frogs and gave them new a new home. . . in his pocket. Whew! mine didn't fill their pockets with surprises!
Focus fabric. . . would you believe Christmas design. . . tree ornaments in blue and green?
To make a twin size quilt - 68" x 88" takes 374 blocks. . .each block 4 inches! Chain stitching. . .with background music to keep focused.
Stripping center with center color fabric flanked with white strips. . . saving fabric by cutting short strips for the outside triangles. . .most getting cut off when squaring off.
Picture above is laid out on the floor. . . so miss my design board. . .I see I need it as I noticed one block has the same green center strip joined. . .didn't notice it while on the floor.
Back to chain stitching. . . well maybe out to do my daily walk instead.
So pretty, you have done a fine job in your color collecting! It will be loved ~

Thank you for Pokey. I am hoping it will be loved. It is for a very special toddler loved by his family. There's a family situation surrounding his birth. He definitely came to a strong family unit...he has been blessed by them!
