Lol..thank you, Anael!! I knew you were going to say that cuz we both love anything "bright" 
I'm decorating my new sewing room in colorful "bright" decor. I always say my favorite color is yellow but it is really rainbow.

Is this the North Sea, Anael. MrOk and I were there about this time 18 years ago...and yes Teen, windy and chilly! Beautiful none the less.
I've been cleaning in the sewing room. A while ago I cleaned off my ironing table, but it had gotten cluttered...again...didn't take me long to get that taken care of, but my cutting table was another story. So many times I'd send the kids down with sewing "stuff" and the only place to put it was there. Mind you my sewing room is 7.5 x 13 feet so kind of small. Glad to say the cutting table is cleared off. Did a little cutting down of pieces and a little sewing of some odds and ends. i have so many projects in progress. Thursday I made 4 9 patch blocks using 5 little crumb blocks set on point for the corners and centers. This is the start of another big mini. Need 56 9P blocks so need 280 of the little crumb blocks...have 16 9P blocks completed.

LOL No bikini......it was 10C.....great but cold! Yes OK, it's the North Sea.
Looks like we're all doing some spring cleaning I decluttered my cutting table/dining table as well. For me that means folding fabrics and piling them by color, that's all! Mission complete.
Teen, I don't know which picture I was taking as I took over 100 yesterday. But it might have been this one (or similar to this one)

Great photo Anael...I have yet to download my photos from our England/Scotland trip but I’m hoping I got some good shots. Teen...love your color wheel.
I am to the point on my LTG project that I need to select a sashing fabric so I can make the checkerboard sections...I went to my LQS yesterday but they didn’t have the Chiffon Grunge by Moda so I might have to order it online. In laying out my blocks I noticed one that will have to be totally redone...I did it all in blue & white while all the rest of the blocks are scrappy and bright so it sticks out like a sore thumb.

Welcome back and thank you jmoore!!
Sometimes a block looks good on its own only not when combined with other blocks. I have quite a few of those
They're all in a bag and hopefully I can use all of them .... even if it's in a 'what was I thinking' quilt

Thank you, jmoore!! Looking forward to seeing your LTG... I still haven't decided on colorway for that pattern but I think I'm ready to go with Happy Birds and Gypsy Wife.
Anael, sweetie...that is an amazing picture. You are seriously improving in your photography..
