It should come as no surprise really as blue and cream has been pretty much a classic combo thoughout the history of ceramics!
Can you guess how I made the all those impressions of holes round the border? All highly technical - I used a Lego building base from when my kids were little. (Yes - we still have thousands of pounds worth of Lego stashed in the attic, along with Thomas the Tank Engines, and Lord knows what else!).
It's also not my usual traditional patchwork; it's all gone a bit contemporary. But it was nice to do something a bit different for a change.
Then back to the traditional quilt-blocks but staying with the blues. This one's called 'Right Hand of Friendship', though it's probably got several different names - they all seem to!
Anyway - I'm not feeling at all blue really cos the National Trust rang yesterday to confirm that my pieces had got the go-ahead. I am now invited to meet other local suppliers at Oxborough Hall next week - I can think of worse places to go for a meeting!
Bye for Now
