Happy Friday! I am currently having fun kicking around Coeur D’Alene, Idaho. I love this city almost as much as I love home. There is so much beauty here, not just in nature, but in the gorgeous architecture. And bonus: I found a great quilt shop!

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.

I thought this photo would be a fun choice for Color Play Friday. It leaves me wondering where Trina may have been when she came across these little guys.

I originally planned to have a bright, fun bundle- something you would make a kid’s quilt out of.  But as I actually started pulling colors from the photo, I realized that they weren’t as bright as I originally thought. That took me in a new direction with a more muted, natural looking bundle.

.

Here are the fabrics I chose:

Lizzy House, Mini Pearl Bracelets in Yellow

Pat Bravo, Essentials 2, Intertwill in Gold

Anna Maria Horner, True Colors, Going Up in Pumpkin

Timeless Treasures, Sketch Basic in Tangerine

Shauna Scicluna, Forest Fables, Panel in Spring

Hawthorne Threads, Etched Hills in Charcoal

 

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:
