The teacher requested something "beachy" and I was kind of nervous. I checked out some ideas and came up with my version I call "Sea Glass." Surprise, surprise I had enough variety of beach glass colors right there in my stash to make it work!
This color planning in a limited range was very new to me. I am super pleased with the result.

Staying accountable with Judy over at Patchwork Times.
The quilt top looks great, and boy are you so close on your numbers. It is great that you are using as much as you are purchasing/acquiring.

ReplyDeleteI'd say you did a good job nailing the beachy theme. Congrats on staying in the green after your fun additions.
