The Leftover Blanket

I finished piecing the couch throw aka “leftover blanket” this morning. I love all the polka dots and the jazzes of red. Two shirts and one Crate and Barrel napkin are included.

Meanwhile it is nasty outside. Cold and rainy.

I’m preparing a password-protected blog post to be able to share book cover ideas with a designer. Let me know if you’d like to take a peek. Any and all input is welcome.

    The Leftover Blanket simply pulses with color and whimsy and I wondered how a bit of it would look on a book cover…so yes, I would like a peek and than you for offering.

    Enchanting to me is the patch of green cloth, the 3rd photo, the piece above the motorcycles. The markings on the green look like dancing centipedes to me!

    Equally enchanting to me are the photos of the rain drops encasing the budding branches. Yesterday, I brought indoors, some budding apple branches that had been knocked to the ground by our usual fierce winds. I like to have a bit of spring indoors and by “forcing” the blooms, an act that is not as violent as it sounds, I will have blooming branches soon.

    The leftover blanket is just fine, like a splendid piece of stained glass. Isn’t it grand to see the trees budding? Yes please, I would also like a peek.
