Should I design a matching trio of squares for Autumn?
I have planned some marching specials
So very beautiful!
ReplyDeleteOne day I will make these, using a different colour for each pattern. <3
I think a matching trio for autumn is a great idea. I think many people would like to make many (matching) coasters (or as you say, one could use these patterns for very many things).
Enjoy your weekend! xx
Thank You Sara, yes seasonal I think is good, I need to get designing :)
ReplyDeleteIt is beautiful, Nezumi! I don't have the talent to make them but I really love to see what others make! Thank you so much for sharing. Hugs. I also love your profile pic, it is adorable! :)
