Color Play Friday - Zen in Seattle

Welcome to Color Play Friday!

Color Play Friday (CPF) is a fun weekly challenge hosted by Trina from In an Otter Life and Lorinda from Laurel, Poppy and Pine where they provide one of their photographs as inspiration and then all the participants create a color palette and fabric bundle based on the photo.

This week's photo is called Zen in Seattle.

I love everything about this photo. The beautiful, blue water, the balancing rocks, the distant horizon... It's all so peaceful, serene, and harmonious. It's all so... zen! 

Here is my palette/bundle for the week.

This is a palette that I don't usually go for. I like deep, saturated, tertiary colors. Despite that, I think there is something so intriguing about this palette. I really stretched my creative self this week. That's why I love CPF. It's like yoga for the brain. In the end, I really like how all these fabrics came together. 

(Mr. 123quilt picked out the Entomology print. He liked that it looked like the rocks in the inspiration photo. I love when he "helps.")
