I am spending hours with white which I love and I have to say...struggle to put down...and occasionally I have a colour break, looking, sampling and thinking. This is from yesterdays colour and pattern hour. New samples, older samples, pretty paper plates that were bought to never be used....as plates anyway. Recent sketchbooks, older sketchbooks. My house is a tip. I am hoping this will all come together, a kind of blinding revelation moment...I wait, I hope....
oh and I bought some new water colour paint yesterday.....
p.s. I haven't mentioned Mothers Day...it isn't Mothers day In England, we have it in March...but Happy Mothers day if it is indeed Mothers Day where you are!

So much colour is soooo unlike you though it is pretty.
Enjoy your sunday and play some more on mondaymorning, :))
Karen-love the escape to color once and a while.
Hope you have a great Sunday. It is Mother's day here and I am off to coach soon.
ENJOY and thanks as always for sharing.
I wonder why Mother's Day is different here and overseas... Loving these colours and patterns.
super colours Karen.
I love the white hexagons and the way you have stitched them.
Happy stitching in which ever colour you are using... :)

While I love your white work the subtle colours you've added is so pretty!
I love all the samples with the hints of pastel colours. So, so beautiful :)

You create such wonderful effects with white, and it is lovely to see the same techniques applied to those soft pastel colours.
I LOVE the colors - gorgeous.

My! You have been busy. Just flipping back through your recent posts. You're back to a one-a-day habit, I see. :) These colours and patterns are so lovely, but then the white in the posts below is delightful too....
