As you might infer from the yardage, this turned out kind of small. So I blocked the bejeezus out of it … and, let me tell you, that Jitterbug really grows. I don’t have blocking wires (yet) so I pinned out shallow scallops. It’s soft and lovely. And very, very yellow.
So yellow, it’s even bright on a grey northwest day.
So lovely. I even tried to find this colorway on the interwebs…what a perfect marigoldy-yellow!
I love the combination of the yellow with the pattern. This came out great!
I thought that edging looked familiar while in progress! I really like the end result.
Lovely.
That color could brighten up any day!
Gorgeous – that color is just so cheerful!
Hot diggity dog, that’s gorgeous! I adore that yellow!
i love your modified bandit! also, that color is fantastic!
gorgeous! I’m going to try this one next…I love the simple ss and then ending with the 1 lace repeat and border, stunning!
