I'm just back from my quilt guild's annual 'garage sale' which was such fun to look at the multitudes of fabrics, books and other quilting related supplies. I found a Nancy Crow book and a few metres of solid coloured fabrics, among other things :) I will add snippets of the new colours to my developing chart which I made in a hurry and discovered just how tricky deciding what colour family fabrics are from, can be. I think I will learn alot just gathering the supplies for the Nancy Crow course!Tuesday, November 10, 2009

Oh! I see you caught that rainbow the other day. Do all your colors correspond with your homeland?
Hi, do I know you? I'm not quite sure what you are meaning, but if you're talking about the fabric swatches I've collected so far, I'm gathering a range of values of 24 colours - so pretty much the colours of the rainbow. A rainbow to me symbolizes the fullness of all possibilities, which would encompass my inner homeland, and in watching my outer homeland, there's a rainbow of possiblities, too.
