Or your screen... or rub your eyes... or get me a Doctor... this is not an illusion!
Yes I have deliberately selected, paid for, brought home & plan to sew with BLUE FABRICS!
Yes, it's true... I believe my complicated relationship with blue is changing.
You see, my Holiday Mode did a strange thing to my head... I've been playing with fabrics for my SuperLongTerm hexy project & decided that it would indeed be fun to have a few blues in the mix... dare I say it, widen the range of colours. The folded fabrics were already in the bag, & I decided to cut from them too. Actually I have two hexy projects that will be a long time in the making - but only SuperLongTerm will feature blues.

But don't get too excited - what's left of these blues when I've cut my hexy shapes from them will go into the bag with the rest of my blues - can't have them socialising with the other colours yet, but they are at least in the same box now, with only the very thin plastic of the bag keeping them apart.
What do you think, am I progressing in my acceptance of blue???!
I think so

I'm a little bit the same... blue and me just don't mix well...
Glad to see you are overcoming yours so perhaps there is hope for me too.

I love Blues sew I an pleased you are starting to use them...
Great to see you incorporating some into your sewing. There are some very nice bits in that stash.
LOL I'm not a "Blues" person either and don't use them in my projects however Kate's favourite colour is blue so of course when I make things for her they are in blue.... so I do have a few in my stash....

Good on you Anthea...nice to challenge yourself.
I'm leaning more and more to blues now....doing those two wedding quilts was the inspiration to use more blues.
I love blues! My bedrooms are all painted blue. Very restful. Don't wear blue though. My eyes are blue. Good on you coming over to the blue side. Hehehe.
I love your blues. Maybe in a past life you were a blue lover and it's just coming out now xx
