Purple

I have come to the realization that I don't DO purple. Purple is probably one of my least favorite colors to work with. I therefore do not have a lot of purple fabric in my stash. To challenge myself this week I have decided to make a simple baby quilt with purple and green fabrics.

I do, however, have A LOT of Kaffe Fassett fabrics that I love, but I don't seem to use them very often. So they were also targeted for use in this quilt.

The chosen fabrics:

I have combined the colored fabrics with a solid Handkerchief Linen fabric (55% cotton/ 45% linen), and have made some half square triangles. The linen colorway is birch, a light beige almost grey color.

I am going to spend today sewing the blocks together. The blocks are fairly small. Including seam allowances they measure just 3.25 inches square.

Progress is slow today, but I am pleased with the color combination.
