Too much of a good thing, not so good.<br />Pink is a tint of red, I'm sure you know that, and as such can be contrasted with the compliment of red and blend in surprisingly well, behaving itself and making a 'group' effort instead of obnoxiously showboating.<br />Color is fun!<br /> Janiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11494933770754796059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1734121503010835867.post-22962562320938823382017-02-06T19:31:26.120-08:002017-02-06T19:31:26.120-08:00I'm not a huge pink fan - especially baby pink...I'm not a huge pink fan - especially baby pink. I like the deep saturated versions though. Even when I was little I was never a 'girly-girl'. For one of my birthdays when I was about 12 I remember my grandma and grandpa getting me identical dresses - one pink and one blue. My grandmother wanted the pink one and grandpa knew me well enough to know that I'd hate it. He was right.

I wrote a post recently about getting out of neutrals now that I am old...now I shall wear pinks, if I feel like it. We have lots of the tiger swallow tails here in summer months. I like how they stay on flowers a long time and you can get a good photo. I have a butterfly quilt on my to do list. Happy Stitching to you!Jocelyn is Canadian Needle Nanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11770193529950365462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1734121503010835867.post-88861323483935734062017-02-04T10:21:23.359-08:002017-02-04T10:21:23.359-08:00Thanks Pamela, your sashiko work is beautiful.Thanks Pamela, your sashiko work is beautiful.Janiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11494933770754796059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1734121503010835867.post-1800768563357797932017-02-04T10:14:07.758-08:002017-02-04T10:14:07.758-08:00I will indeed, Queenie.
