Katy's Square(s)

I offered to sew Katy's square this month because she is very busy and a wee bit stressed! I was happy to sew up a square for her. My sewing to-do list is surprisingly short, and I've come to love how these come together. I found the blue floral on the right in the same line as the polka dot and loved it. I found the red and white circles and though, "perfect". I wanted to incorporate Red Riding Hood, so put her in the middle. However, when I finished, I found that the polka dot blended too much with the blue, and Red didn't pop as much as I wanted. I can't stop thinking that it looks like Red is lost in the mire of a Japanese blossom forest, and that kept me from ripping it apart. So, I felt compelled to make another square with a center that popped more and one where the polka dots didn't blend. Hence, the camera square. I bought the camera fabric for a close friend of mine who is a photographer. I made a wallet as a birthday present out of that fabric for her this year. So.... I will send them both to you, Linsay, and you can decide what to do! 

And, here is the rest of the repeat of that fabric. I made matching dresses for my older girls with it. Juliette will just now fit into the smaller one!
