Debby Hughes of Lime Doodle Designs continues to be my muse. Her recent pastel plaid gave me the inspiration, along with her gorgeous Pinterest plaid-inspired collage - I'm sure she won't mind if I share it here:
By now, you might know I cannot resist table linens. Just look at that lovely in the bottom-right corner!!
A bit of jelly roll [pen] never hurt anyone - just ask Julia =]
I do have lots of work ahead of me, but today, I'm feeling pretty happy with this one! Could you stand another?
Have a fabulous weekend ... thanks to Debby, for always inspiring me. Thanks also to #Diane McDonough Jaquay, who has been sharing her lovely plaids with us on Instagram, and Facebook!
