Colour catches my attention everywhere I look! Whether I'm gazing out the window at our lush green palms silhouetted against a brilliant blue morning sky, or packing away the dinner dishes and have my eyes captured by how beautifully the orange spotted coffee mug sits alongside the lime green sandwich plate - colour grabs my attention without even trying. Over the next couple of weeks I'm going to share some blog posts that focus on the attraction of colour and how we can use it to enhance our craft.

To kick off those posts I stepped back a few years - okay, a lot of years - to the gentle art of colouring in. When we were homeschooling our two youngest children we always chose to purchase the best craft supplies. After years of trial and error our favourite coloured pencils were Prismacolor. They are very rich in depth of colour and have a soft 'lead' that glides across paper with barely any effort at all. Let's begin... It looks better now, doesn't it? ...and finally, to stitch. hugs.
