[Susan Haines]

Hi everyone! So let's see what all you talented KAS-folk can come up with in BLUE!!! Blue skies, blue eyes, blue flowers, blue ice, etc. plus, all the many shades of blue, the variegated blues, textured blues, and all the blues mixed with other colors!!! I did a few plain jane squares in various blues in the photo. Let's see what happens in blues!!

Can I squeeze my last three blue squares in here....? :) - I used up the last tiny bits of blue at the bottom of my yarn stash.

Blurry but beautiful blues by Beth. (I couldn't miss this opportunity for alliteration :-)

Calling these my 'Blurry Blues' as this picture is definitely not great but you can get the gist I think :)
