Sometimes something comes along that just nags at me until I give in. When I first read about this project I was definitely tempted....but quickly talked myself out of it and moved along. And then I read Denise's blog and Cathy's blog. And between the two of them I just had to go back and check out the details.
Sooooo I've pulled my fabrics. I really like the looks of the Purple/Green/White. But then I thought about how each country has it's own colors and I decided to use the colors that represents the United States. This is what Barbara has on her sidebar.
America's primary suffrage color was gold, often
contrasted with black or dark violet. The shade is close to the
yellow-orange we see in 19th-century quilts, the color the dyers called
chrome orange and we call cheddar.These are the fabrics I've chosen so far. I'll throw in some black occasionally if I need to and when I have more time I'll rummage through my scraps to pull more golds.
Happy Labor Day weekend. Hope you're having fun and staying safe and happy.
I'm going to go sew
Thanks for stopping by....Linda
