Something Blue

After all that red and green during the holidays, when January comes around I am definitely in the mood for a more mellow color palette.  Blue seems perfect for the chilly winter days we are having, so I made myself a new table topper.

I have a ton of various Primitive Gatherings "Snowman Gatherings" fabric left over from a project I started awhile back and never finished.  There are lots of navys, lighter blues, and light background prints.

For my little quilt, I made 3" finished square in a square blocks, which I trimmed to size with my Creative Grids Square on Square Trim Tool ruler.  The quilt measures 17" x 26".

My plan is to get this quilted myself this week and put it out and enjoy it!

BLue and white are one of my favorite combos and it looks great. Just right for a winter touch. Very nice Nicole. happy Anniversary too! Where does the time go?

That is such a soothing choice of colors. Coincidentally, I'm making a runner for a gift at quilt retreat later this week using blues & blue-greens. Great minds, huh?! Onward into 2019!

Love this wee table runner with its wiinter fabrics! Don't you enjoy making small seasonal quilts? I certainly do!

Hugs!

Very nice! And a great start to the new year. Wishing you all best!

I wanted to comment on something from an earlier post, too -- the one with stocking stuffer suggestions for men. I laughed out loud at your mention of those felt pads for the bottom of chair legs. I thought my husband was the only one who had a collection! I had no idea it was a "man" thing. Thanks for the enlightenment and the laugh -- and the great suggestion.
