Spring Inspirations?
Hi everyone:
With the weather beginning to warm up here in New Hampshire and anticipating the gorgeous spring colors to follow, I am itching to create a new wall quilt featuring spring colors. Yellow, purple and green are on the top of my list, but I am also wondering what color combinations make others think of spring. So, what does spring look like to you? All the best, Carol www.caroldoak.com |

Pink, lots of pink! Pink and green - at least that's what I'm doing!
Good colors though! I love the yellow and purple too! All of it has to have green! Dannielle |

Spring Inspirations?
Spring is a rainbow to me! Wow, every color imaginable! Purple,
white, pink, and yellow pansie faces - tulips in red and pink and purple - hyacinths coming up - my lilies in white and yellow and these gorgeous shades of oranges, peaches and yellows! Big blue and violet irises! This past week I have had gerbera daisies in my front porch pot blooming in bright orange and yellow! And the greens, WOW, bright yellow green as the oak starts putting out new growth, a deeper, richer green in the stems of the narcissus, the kelly green stems of the irises and lilies - the dark, rich green of the pansy plants. The robins are here, the robins are here announcing the arrival of spring! The busy little announcers in their rusty red vests with their delicate white eye-liner! The cardinals and the jays are shouting their joy of spring in bright, screaming red and deep, ocean blue. And the sky! It was absolutely breathtaking this weekend without a cloud one! It was windswept blues in shades ranging from teal to royal and in the evening sunsets it was lavender, pink, purple, orange, peach and baby blue. Spring is just a rainbow of color to me, that's for sure! For me, winter is all about grey and brown and earth tones so I delight when the rainbow comes back and announces all new beginnings! Charis and shalom! Tina |

Hi Carol,
I agree with you - yellow for daffodils, green for all the new growth and lavendar for the lilac and hyacinth! -- Bonnie NJ |

Hey Georg, I don't know what you mean by honey wagons but I don't think what
we refer to as honey wagons as a sign of Spring. What is your definition for a honey wagon? -- Bonnie NJ |

Howdy!
Spring--that would be that 2 week period we went thru' mid-March; from here on we're heading into summer. g Blue & yellow, that says Spring to me. Of course, blue & yellow makes green-- perfect! Also, the current Kaffe Fassett collections make for a blooming good spring. Ragmop/Sandy--remembering when Carol was at the Arlington Texas guild in July, a couple of years ago... oy! July in Texas!!!

My remembrance of honey wagons is definitely spring - gotta fertilize
those fields! But it has been so long ago, I had almost forgotten about them! Been a long time since I've lived on a farm! Dannielle |
