This morn when going through some of the blogs I visit, I came across Anna Carson's Yellow Project while visiting Strolling Through Georgia. I immediately thought of my quilts because lately I seem to always insert quite a bit of yellow. The above is my own quilt, River of Light. It is something that I came up with--sort of own my own with a little inspiration from a couple sources. I started it probably the last part of 2004 or early 2005 when I was still working, and finished it in 2006.
Then today I happened to finally notice that I do have some daffodils blooming...I have two blooms. I am not sure if the rest are going to bloom or not. These are two different blooms, with the bottom bloom that was not fully open really being cropped.
Of course I cannot forget the golden yellow of ginseng in the fall...you have to see it in person to appreciate it.
And of course, when I think of yellow, I think of Tidy Cat cat litter--with four cats in the house I go through quite a bit of this stuff. I am so glad I have a basement:-)
Thanks for your comment re my photos. I am busy sorting and organising them all. There are so many! However I want to put some in online albums so i will give you a shout when I have some ready! Dont know quite when, but I am working on it!
ReplyDeleteStrong yellows arpund here.
ReplyDeleteThose flowers just look great.
By the way, "pawpaw" is another word to call "papaya".
Thank you for visiting.
Wonderful entries for project yellow - I love that quilt. My MIL was a quilter.
ReplyDeleteI've been doing project yellow with Anna this week too; so if you get a minute stop by. I've done two posts and plan to finish the week with it.
I did a yellow post today and may do more later in the week. Your quilt is lovely. I looked up some blocks because it looked as if something similar could be done with a traditional block that I've seen. The block I found is Roman Strip. It is a square divided diagonally with one half solid and the other striped. If you put four of them together right you would have a pattern similar to yours, but I think I like how you did it even better.
ReplyDeleteI don't do much quilty in my blog, though I am very active in an online quilt group. I guess it is my other life.
I love your Daffodil pics...and I think your quilt is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment on my blog. I've only lived in Tennessee for three years...but I love it here!
Your photos are great but my favorite is the quilt. What a beauty!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful quilt.
ReplyDeletehaving 10 cats, the only thing i use is Shweats cat litter. It is organic, flushable and litterly no urine odor.
I have never found any other cat litter that works as well as this.
