A lovely lady purchased a set of custom rag topped bowls from sosorosey as a gift for an artist friend. She wanted cobalt blue bases and white "ragging".

The "cobalt" gave me a problem. I did an online search for cobalt cotton yarn that returned nothing. I gave the choice of a cotton blend or a change in color- to maybe a periwinkle color. Then, I went to Hancock Fabrics (not a yarn store, as you can tell by the name) and found this gorgeous "morning glory" blue. Yay!

I always love to create a custom project with a color combination that I've never done or thought of. This set turned out very clean looking, I think. And crisp. Like it would work well in a beach house overlooking the Mediterranean Sea. Oh, I love to create lives for my projects, too :)

OOo, Jennie, create a life as nice as this one for me too :o)
Love this colour combo, and imagine it's life exactly as you do to!
The yarn was a lucky find my dear :o)
Happy Saturday Jennie & Co.

Well done fro finding the colour! The combination is stunning - reminds me a little of the fashion for moroccan blue pots, fences etc that were the vogue in gardens over here recently.
Have a great weekend Jennie
