Fun Quilts You Can Do Too
It is done! Shadows of Auntie Green – my April Island Batik Ambassador quilt is finished. A few days late, as forecast, but I hope you’ll agree, they were days well spent.
And there is someone else I’d like to introduce you to, who also values life-long learning….. the Green Bear! Please welcome May’s Green Bear of Always Learning to our growing Beary Colourful family.

Hopefully you will give the new bear the two thumbs up!

This year at Clever Chameleon, the colour of the month is defined as our monthly focus colour in Jen Shaffer’s Monthly Color Challenge and blog hop. And with April nearly here, our thoughts are now turning to orange.
Orange is the colour of many things that I value very highly. Orange is associated with enthusiasm and fascination. Also, determination and encouragement, creativity, success, health and freedom. If that is not enough, orange symbolises balance and enjoyment too. That is one impressive list. By rights, orange should be my favourite colour! (But it’s not……)
