Le Challenge - Bright


Do I have some bright fabrics for April's Le Challenge? I have some scraps from my triangle quilt I'm making. Is there something I can do with them?


I haven't found matching zipper so I made something small. Something really small :-)


It's not a purse for dwarf and it is not for keeping my souvenir coins either. It is to hold coin which you need to put into shopping cart when you go grocery shopping. You never heard of that? Well that's how we do it here :-)


My indoor pictures really don't show the fabric so bright especially compared to the field outside. I wish I had some quilt finished so I can use is as a background. Maybe the quilt would fly away since it was really windy but perfect for flying a kite.


You saw that thunder coming on the first pic, didn't you? Those colors are just yummy. I really need to take pictures of my quilts right before thunder strikes, lol. Well we didn't really expect some hailstones. The weather is really crazy these days.

  3. You got hail - we got more snow! We had several 20C days - then BOOM - the temps dropped and it snowed all day long - yuck, lol. Some of it has already melted, but then more fell - it's crazy, LOL. I see you have a Canadian penny there - we're phasing those out, and the mint isn't making them any more!

    Lots of our grocery stores need a quarter to get a cart - the stores do it so people will return them to the corrals, instead of leaving them all over the parking lot :D

  4. Love this idea! You've even got the right coin in the picture, that pound coin will get you a shopping trolley in the uk!

  5. None of our grocery stores charge for shopping carts so they end up all over the parking lot. It's a great idea. I like to walk so I'm thinking that I could make a little purse, like that, to hold my house key. I think I've just added another project to my list...lol.

  8. That is tiny! My daughter always snags the coin for the trolley carts so there is no keeping it for me.

  13. We need a quarter for the carts and I never have one handy. I might just have to make one for me, what a good idea.
