Picnic Blanket

I love picnics.

I saw this idea about a year ago, and knew that I’d use the green canvas I had instead of denim.

It took me just under a year to finish it!

I used all orange and yellow scraps I had. I even patchworked some of them together.

I’m in love with this square/circle.

Even the back is pretty. I just used a mishmash of yellow, orange and white threads. Whichever bobbin was full!

Now, if it would stop raining, we need to have a picnic!

I’m thinking of sewing some sort of handles to it, so I can just fold it up and swing it over my shoulder…stay tuned.
