Blue inspirations

Blue inspirations

But... blue makes me happy, too! My favorites are the greeny-gray shades, sort of robin's egg or cerulean or steel-blue gray, but just about every shade makes me happy.


How about you - is blue your favorite? I mean, if you were choosing one, just one shade of the rainbow to stitch in... for a sort of, oh, I don't know... contest? Hmmm? :)


Here's a bit of blue inspiration from the following Flickr talents, found in our pool:
1. Koiranputki-brooch by knittinjo
2. Dragonfly by meeka5
3. The Sailor by Eva.Lena.
4. Abbey Road by good_gorilla
5. Embroidery details by Birthine
6. kokako by prettylittlelightnin gpaw
7. Teeny Hearties Wall Wear 3" by Janick • Nea

  5. I'm looking forward to seeing what this all leads up to...I like all the colors though, but if I had to choose one I tend to select green...but blue sure is purty.

  8. Purple. Or red, depending on my mood. Maybe teal. But I am one of the very few people in this country who is not crazy about blue (not to take away from the absolutely lovely images in this post ;> ).
