Rainy Blue Monday


It is a rainy Monday, one of my favorite kind of days! I feel very inspired to get things done around the house. Last week I worked on my blue scrap quilt and made some good progress.



I dumped out the scraps and went to town, cutting and sewing. It is quite a mess.



Some other colors are working their way in....


But I think it will keep it from becoming too blue and add some interest.....



Technically not a scrap but too cute not to include that blue typewriter in the mix.

    That looks like so much fun! How I'd love to chuck my "obligation" quilting, and do something like this. It's just wonderful.

    You have such fun scraps and I love what you're doing with them! The Typewriters are a fun addition, of course you should put some in!

    Love the way your blue scrap quilt is coming together! The fun way to quilt - sort of improvisational - with all the scraps dumped out on the table!! Very nice!

    I love that blue scrap quilt. It is so much fun to see up close, all the interesting fabrics. Probably like a memory quilt for you. Where all those scraps came from.
