Fat quarters, not too carefully selected. A favorite pink, a blue that can't decide between grey and green, some browns in all shades and a little muslin to rest they eye.
Cut into so many pieces, scattered on the table, waiting for my daughter's nap tomorrow to be sewn together anew, even prettier than they were before.
When said aloud the idea of cutting whole pieces of fabric into smaller pieces just to sew them back together again into another whole piece seems a bit ridiculous but oh the joy that can be found in doing just that!

Oh... r e a l l y pretty combo, luv them together, you've such a good eye:)
such pretty colors...looks like spring to me :)
They are beautiful together! That last line made me laugh out loud... so very true though, I had just never thought of it like that before.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend~
Lovely fabrics...they compliment each other so well.
