Cheerful seaside colours!
The colour of the water - deep blue, sea green, turquoise - greens and blues the world over.
Seaside colours are my inspiration for these crochet coasters and matching doily placemat. What was that saying? Blue and green, never to be seen. However, in today's fashion world it seems these colours are everywhere. I really love the finished look of these blue and green colour combinations they go well together.
Just take a look around at nature, the colour combinations are absolutely inspiring!
Look at a peacock, their feathers are magnificent in hues of blue and green, absolutely fabulous! OK so there are other colours between the blue and green but hey they do work well together.

I know, it's taken me a while to get back to writing up these patterns for release however, this past week has been full of website, pattern, document and photo re-organizing. And what a job it is, I am still grasping with the enormous task put before me and the call of the hook is always beckoning.
