Summer Rain

Today it absolutely rained cats and dogs, on and off all day. Most unusual for January but hey I won't have to water the garden for a few days!
A good day for sewing.  I have already found that many of my fabrics are mid-tones and I am struggling to find enough darks and lights to go with them. Have been for one foray to the quilt shops to see what I could find. Colour value range is now from quite dark to very light but as long as you are careful about how you combine the values, it seems to work.

The value range certainly exists in my morning latte.
