IS IT SOUP YET?

                 Stone Soup blocks are all sewn into "bowls" now; 
I am looking for setting ideas and eye-balling fabrics...
                                and thinking to myself that 
                                  this looks like Borst Soup...

                        { "Imagination is funneee.." songs again;))) }

I think you float sour cream on top...???
                     NOW....there is a challenge to depict that
                         in trim, which is one of our Stone Soup rules
                            --maybe in my Crazy Quilt basket
                                    I can come up with something...


                                 
                Maybe this fabric laying there will be the "tablecloth"????

and this:
                                              For the borders....
                        a country print that uses some coordinating colors.

And I'd like to include this one--
altho' the color is not in the same family--
                                                        but ..."I like it"..;)))

  1. I love your Stone Soup project! The colors and pattern are just wonderful. I'm going to make home made egg rolls for Super Bowl Sunday. I hope they come out good. I'm planning on using the Air Fryer. Almost forgot, I love your diamond painting. It reminds me of summer1

  2. The sunflowers are beautiful!

    I love your fabrics for setting your Stone Soup bowls....if the salmon-y spoons n forks doesnt work, could it be the backing. I do love how quirky it is.

  3. Love your stone soup bowls. So fun. Your diamond painting is beautiful.
    As for sour cream, what about a cloud fabric,? Those spoons gotta go in it
    So cool

  4. I like your setting options, especially the one with the chickens. I'd definitely give that cutlery a go too -it's a fabulous fabric.

  5. so do you go back and forth from snowballs to circles? I sure like the sunflowers! How do you hang them on the wall and have any diamonds fallen off? Love the cutlery fabric!

  7. Beautiful colors in stone soup. I can see why you'd like to add the silverware fabric.
