Let's Get Shabby.......Challenge 11.

The challenge this month at LGS is all about colour. We need to take inspiration from the photo of the gorgeous quilt. I decided to create my LO with a border as that was one of the first things that caught my eye on the quilt and also wanted to use fabric and stitching (as would be found in a quilt). So the border consists of gingham on one corner and stitching on the other. Of course the colours in the quilt were the main source of inspiration.

I thought this photo of Missy playing with the fallen leaves would be perfect. She loves to bundle them up and throw them in the air and she says "Happy Valentine's Day"....no idea how that is relevant but it's pretty cute. tfl
