Orange trees are still brimming – isn’t it wonderful, we’re so enjoying our marvellous citrus fruit. What a vibrant post and so very appropriately named. I’ve had a marvellous weekend – high tea with ladies on Saturday and today furniture shopping for our new house in Goondiwindi. Exhausting but fun. Mitch is cooking a seafood paella as I type – peering in the pan I see loads of colour – hope it tastes good. Hope you and yours have a good week. Mariana xx

What vivid colours! Sadly our weekend sky colour was grey – but great for snuggling!

  That’s the good thing about crochet (well mine anyway) they are quite small, so the turn over is fairly snappy. Lots of new things get started.

  The crochet squares keep slowly building up. Hopefully they’ll form something useful eventually.

  the photo didn’t do the vine justice. It really did look quite graceful meandering up the stone wall.

Beautiful colours. So many shades of blue in the sky – it’s like a paint sample strip.

Brydie- your perspective is so spot on right. Looking at the myriad of colours in our lives and naming them gives us a chance to stop and see- to pay attention to the small bright things or the big blue expanses that frame our days. Thank you for sharing this kaleidoscope of color with us!

  Hi Imani, thanks for the kind words. The squares I am doing are just simple granny squares. There are lots of tutorials about on how to get started on them, (far more thorough than I would be able to tell you!) Happy crocheting 🙂
