Taking a Hiatus

In spite of my best intentions to stay up with Bonnie's mystery, holiday preparations have taken precedence this week.  At least I made a decision to proceed with my substitute color for her coral.  I wasn't sure how purple would look next to turquoise so I made one unit.  I opted to use a light turquoise and I think it works!

I tried to imagine how the square-in-a-square would be used -- my guess -- ant it's not too bad!


Though I will pay more attention to the shades of purple that might go into the same block next time.  I did manage to make six units before I had to wrap gifts and clean up the house for company coming.


I have some last-minute stitches to make on some gifts and packing to do before we head to Nashville to celebrate with the great-grand's family.  In case I'm not able to get back on line amidst the hustle and bustle, I'll take this opportunity to wish you all a Very Merry Christmas!
