Searching for Roy G Biv - Violet

Seems like the second round of searching for Roy G Biv just began and here we are at violet already. I managed to find a few along the way.

flea market beads

who can resist Hershey's kisses

more kisses

paper bag at The Container Store

yarn bombed tree in Ridgefield

Ellie's foot

red (although I've always considered it purple) cabbage

a bit of my stitching

another yarn bombed tree in Ridgefield

Stroll on over to see the violets that Julie, Fiona, Kim, Charlton and Lisa found...or created.

    1. The local knitting shop sponsored the yarn bombing. There are 3 or 4 more trees that received a yarn wrap...all along Main Street too!

  4. Yes - where did the last seven months go?
    I enjoyed seeing your purples - I especially love the patterns of squiggles & wiggles in your stitching, the cross section of the cabbage and the second yarn-bombed tree...

    1. The cabbage was loads of fun to photograph. I'd attempted to dye with it in the spring...a total flop!@#@!...but it did yield some interesting shots before going in the dye pot.

    1. Ha! This shot is from our Boston trip this spring. The children's museum has a lighted (lit? backlit? or just plain light floor?) floor on which to play various games. I lucked out with this shot of the purple and Ellie's foot.

    1. I should get back to my purple stitches...started when I was feeling light...and at Hilton Head for a week. Guess being near the water does that to me. Harold and The Purple Crayon! Forgot all about that. Thanks for the reminder!!!

    1. You're very welcome Jackie. It's only been in the past year or so that green tea held any appeal for me...drinking-wise, that is. Maybe my tastes are changing with age? Enjoy playing with it!
