    Default Lemonade Anyone??

    They always say if life gives you lemons, make lemonade.

    A couple of years ago I purchased some small African batik panels and didn't know what I was going to make out of them. They've been in my "Hmmmmm" pile ever since.

    A couple of weeks ago I was at my guild meeting and a bunch of scraps (cornerstones and sashing maybe?) on the freebie table caught my eye. I quickly gathered up someone else's "lemons" and here's the lemonade bag I made.

    I'd say that is lemonade supreme! You matched up the panels with someone else's cast offs perfectly. The result is beautiful.
