GREEN

It's no secret - green is my favorite color. 
I try to put a little green in every quilt.
Here is just a sampling of some of my favs...
 
Such a sweet little summer home down by the lake....I drive by it almost every day and swoon over it.
 LOVE the slope of the roof.
 
Our adirondack chair.
 
 
Who doesn't love green Pyrex?
 
 
My fat quarter quilt with green olives backing.
Thank you, Des, for this pattern!
 
 
 
This  is an old Ford truck on our previous property in Idaho...hated to leave it behind.
 
 
 
What color do you find yourself drawn to?

    3. As a matter of fact - those are exactly the colors of my Swoon quilt! Just waiting for the background to arrive and my fat 1/4's are on their way to you!

  2. I've never been a green girl but I do love all the shades you're showing. Maybe it was that hunter green was like the only option for a LONG time. Maybe I'll be a green girl soon. But I would have to say I've always been a pink/red lover, with orange now making a very prominent appearance! xoxox

  4. I love your green post. It's my favorite color also. When we remodeled our kitchen, I got green counter tops! Thanks for sharing. Patty

    1. I'm jealous of your green counter top already! I stained the wood walls behind our cabinets green in the kitchen. Thanks for the comment!

    1. I'm sort of on a patriotic kick lately - we're working on Quilts of Valor in our guild so I get to use some of my reds & blues together!
