Change of mind …

It’s a woman’s privilege, they say.

I decided to just make placemats with my four Bear Paw blocks in bright solids. I would have needed to go shopping for more pink for the background and I wasn’t happy with my color choices. In other words, another case of typical self-doubt.

Anyhow, I do like the way they look with the pale pink and white dishes I purchased on a whim a couple years ago. I’m not usually a pink person but the dishes– and now their matching placemats — do have a way of pushing back the darkness, and brightening grey skies.

I ran out of pink for the binding so settled on yellow for two. “Making do,” is my new theme.

(Looks like it’s time for a new table!)

I’m also learning to use the rotary cutter with my left hand. It’s just so quick and easy to get a good straight accurate cut with a rotary cutter and ruler. Especially when dealing with 1/8’s of an inch. Since it took me about 15 years to ruin my right shoulder I figure my left shoulder should hold me until my old age. Haha. Assuming I’m still in the business. I’ll be 83 by then. Crazy thought.

Until then, anyone want to join me for tea?
