Colour Inspiration Tuesday: Vintage Port Adelaide

Vintage Inspiration from an Adventure Day to Historic Port Adelaide

On the weekend, our Joey Scouts (6-8yo) had a transport-themed adventure day. We went on a bus, then a tram, then a train, then a boat.

Colour Inspiration Tuesday: The next Colour in the 2018 Monthly Color Challenge is Yellow!

March has just about snuck up on us already, and that means it’s time to start getting our heads around next month’s quilt challenge colour. 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. You still have a couple of days to link up your February blue creations at Jen’s – but only a couple, so please don’t forget! As beautiful as blue is, March will be all about yellow.
