Blue Skies by Marianne Parsons

Serendipity is my favorite designer. Chance finds of bias scraps from a guild workshop and a bag of miscellaneous yarns from the Thrift Shop gave me an idea that included knitting the bias strips along with the yarns. After lying dormant for several years on my design wall, flowers finally sprouted from the scraps and now they flourish under the bright blue sky.
