Charley's speeding now

This seems to be growing really quickly at the moment.





I've got to a point where I'm picking colours in relation to what's already there, because I know where all my bits are going. I think it's the repetition of colour and/or shape that gives things their rhythm. I added in the brighter blue stripe fairly recently.  I liked the fabrics I had but it all felt a bit subdued (though that may just be me).  I prefer it with that extra bit of zing.







This is where I've got to now.

Love this! I have some of the prints from this collection, but you've made far better use of them than I. The layout is really interesting, and I love the bird sections!

Bravo on your progress, Kaja! This is really looking awesome!

Thanks - the nuthatch is a really striking fabric so I hope I've done it justice.

It seems to be coming together really easily - though if I say that I may get stuck now! I'm hoping that the last third will be as smooth.
