In The Red

My photos from this past week definitely seem to have a red theme going on...

My bright red felt apple brooch brightening up my jacket this week. Pattern and instructions for this sweet and simple little brooch can be found here...

Juicy red strawberries...

Getting lots of inspiration from this gorgeous book...

Some lovely red and white gingham fabric. I am planning to make a summer dress for Miss M with this...

New yarn. The plan is to crochet a few more brooches with this gorgeous bright red cotton...

I really, really love red. It's most definately my favourite colour!

Thank you so much for the lovely comments on Miss M's little appliqué picture - she was smiling from ear to ear when I told her about them! Also hello to my new readers (and all my readers in fact!) and thank you so much for visiting my little blog.

  3. Love love your REDS! Red is a wonderful color and one of my favorites too. But Pink has to be my favorite, but I do have many reds!!!! That yarn is lush and will make lovely brooches and gingham is the best and my favorite. Can't wait to see Miss M dress : )
    Happy day to you both, xoRobin

  4. Your jolly red colours and projects make me think of bright summery sunshine no matter what the clouds are pouring down on us! I can't wait to see what you do with the dress gingham - I can't imagine being confident enough ya the sewing machine to stitch up some clothing! And I'm curious about the gorgeous red yarn...

  11. I'm really loving red too at the moment. The brooch is lovely. I've been thinking of having another go at designing a felt brooch but how to fit it in with all the other ideas in my head?! x
