More Aqua and White ….

September 10, 2012 By Spoonful of Sugar - 7 Comments

Making us smile this week …..

  • I completed a quilted Table Mat for our lamp table this week. It is a simple design from white linen and fabric to match our cushions/pillows and the Table Runner. It is right near my favourite chair.
  • Working on my crocheted stars at night in front of the TV. I think they are destined to become Christmas decorations.
  • Recent issues of my two favourite magazines – Marie Claire Idees and Mollie Makes – for relaxing reading in front of the TV.
  • We have had a taste of Spring here in Perth over the past week – it is making us feel energized and I have been busy with a spot of Spring Cleaning. I am enjoying having a break from the day job and getting more organised at home.
Hope you are having an enjoyable week too and have plenty to smile about….

    These are lovely projects – aqua and white must be the most elegant of colour combinations. I’ve started my own crochet star project – I’d forgotten about that MM pattern – and think mine will become snowflake bunting, perhaps for the tree. Thanks for the inspiration.
