Springtime Patchwork

Lately I've been absolutely loving the springtime and particularly the spring flowers. Beautiful shades of purple and yellow have been leaping out at me from parks, gardens and roadsides everywhere.


I have a tendancy to become obsessed from time to time with colour combinations and these stunning seasonal flowers have sparked my latest obsession. Couple this with a desire to get back into patchwork and the need for a new picnic blanket and...


I present the Springtime patchwork picnic blanket.




I'm super pleased how this has turned out, sometimes I spend forever deliberating on which fabric to put where but this time it came quite easily and I just love it! The splashes of red, the gingham backing, it was just one of those times when it all came together very nicely indeed and I can't wait to try it out. Now we just need some more of that lovely sunshine for a perfect picnic day!
