Today is a happy day!  It is my husbands birthday!  So, Happy Birthday to my amazing, kind, funny, smart man. I love you so, so much.

Ok, enough gushing- on to Color Play Friday!

Color Play Friday is hosted by Trina from In An Otter Life and me. If you’re new to Color Play Friday, head over to my Color Play Friday page to see the rules and my palettes and bundles from previous weeks.

Doesn’t this cookie look amazing?! Trina bought it at Snohomish Pie Company and talked about how she brought it down to the river to enjoy, but could only eat half of it as it was so rich!

I grew up in Snohomish and spent plenty of time relaxing by those same riverbanks, and I wanted my bundle to tie in with that feeling. I tried to keep the colors soft and natural, and I added in the butterflies and feathers as a nod to the wildlife along the river.

Here are the fabrics I chose:

Heather Mulder Peterson, Home for Harvest, Mosaic in Green

Michael Miller, Ta Dot in Moss

Heather Ross, Tiger Lily, Butterflies in Mud

Wee Gallery, Wee Hearts in Peach

Joel Dewberry, True Colors, Herringbone in Maple

Charley Harper, Nurture, Feathers in Brown

Cotton and Steel Basics, Dottie in Brown

 

 

A note about scale:

• While I believe scale is a very important part of fabric selection, the fabrics shown in my Color Play images are not always perfectly to scale. I do my best, by you should always double check scale before ordering!

Don’t forget to head over to the other blogs and see what they came up with! The fun of Color Play Friday is seeing the differences and similarities between everyone’s bundles.

Participants this week:
