Shards

My WIP of the day!  I have a custom Crochet Roll request.  I love being able to 'do my thing' on these kind of projects.  
Once we figured out the color direction...the rest is up to me!

In this case, teal + coral + gray = possibilities!  Not that that is out of the way, where to start?

Cut, sew, cut...think!  The predominate color is going to be teal.  I pieced a 'loose' version of a chevron.

And the final placement, piecing of the front panel.  

Off to finish the lining and pocket!  I hope to share the finished piece very soon!

WIP WEDNESDAY!

Evening WIP

I'm a couple days late (I think) getting this 'placemat proof' pieced together.  I was asked if I could make four placemats in blues, with just a hint of lime green.  I jumped at the chance!   

It doesn't look very lime green, does it?!  Nope!  It just hit me...I used chartreuse!  Chartreuse, not lime green.  As I said, this is a 'proof'.

I really love making anything I can rip through with my rotary cutter.  No measuring, no worries!  

Placemat WIP

I like to use a wide variety of fabrics and colors.  This one has some Shot Cottons (I am a shot-cotton-a-holic, I cannot lie) along with 'regular' cotton fabrics.  

Several different shades of blue, teal, aqua-ish.  A good color combination.  I find that I go back to this combination frequently.  It rarely fails me.  Soothing.  Calming.  I like it. 

Do you have a 'go to' color combination?  I'd love to hear what it is!  Comments are always welcome!  

WIP Wednesday!
