Oooh, they're here!
Well, I thought it would be "Avocado, Lemon, Lime" but sometimes names evolve while you're working on a piece. The yellow isn't bright enough for lemon, the blue-green is too blue for lime, whatever. But it's coming clear: the pale, approaching neutral colors and the freeform quilting are producing a different idea. It will be "Wandering/Oasis." Now if the threads I ordered will just come (maybe today) so I can do more hand work on the brownish and rust dyed areas with several variegated brown/beige ones, and attack the yellow parts with one called "Honey"--multiple shades of yellow and gold. Wandering around the desert, retracing your steps or going in circles, sometimes coming upon a greeny spot. Brief pause here, while I go check the mailbox. Oooh, they're here! Now I do need to sit back down and stitch. Fortunately I also received a new DVD from Netflix, so I can enjoy the afternoon with multiple senses. Into the desert I go.
