Partying with Chookyblue in the Chookshed!

A wet Saturday meant that I had more time than usual to enjoy myself! And a nicely watered garden into the bargain although France is still on alert for a drought and hot summer. To catch up on all the fun in the Chookshed go here.

Here is what I was doing yesterday afternoon - my RSC blocks for June. Yellow. Yellow!!!! I went to what I though was my yellow/orange fabric box and what did I find - orange! Went through my scrap box too and all I could come up with that was a true yellow was this.


So in the end I went with some dull mustards which I think will work well with the other blocks that I have made.

My other mission was to make my swap hexie flowers for the month and these also got finished so I am well ahead on all my projects for the month.


I have also been working on my hexathon quilt and my CTTY project so have had a very profitable weekend. Hope yours was too.
