Yellow fabric

I bought some yellow fabric today…

I have been asked by some local ladies to help to make some blocks for a charity quilt. A fabric company has sponsored this by sending a jelly roll of fabric to start us off, and the colours are mainly yellow, with some blue and brown.

I don’t usually (ever) sew with this colour, so this will be a challenge.

So far, I have cut out some blocks, and will post pictures once they are made up.
