This weeks chosen colour is Teal.
Robyn really had me scratching my head on this one.
According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teal
Teal comes from a mixture of the primary colour blue, and the secondary colour green
which is mixed with some gray.
There is also Teal Blue and Teal Green.
Having these clues to use really didn't help me much at all. It seems we have very few Teal items here at Kainga. I have been out and about doing the tourist thing the last week and that didn't help at all either. So you will have to use your imagination a bit when it comes to my display of Teal. Close enough is near enough in my books!!!!
I purchased these two fat quarters and thread over at Toodyay during the week. Did you see the Teal wishing stone next to the cotton .
Our teapot lid could be Teal Green.
I am sure you will find some Teal in amongst these scraps.
These cross stitch patterns are probably the closest thing to the other Teal that I have.
Lucy did this tie dying last year at school. I am sure if you look at it you will find some light shade of Teal. If not don't worry. I think it is pretty enough to be included in this post of "prettiness alone".
Now next week Robyn has us looking for Christmas Colours. Thank you for that Robyn,an easy one to end the year.
Thank you for visiting today and using your imagination with my little collection of Teal.
Happy Colourful Friday.

Hey Bev, you did great!!
I think you're very clever and using the Teal Cross stitch patterns is beaut!!
I found teal incredibly hard...
I thought I knew what it was....
It's been an interesting week *grin*
Happy Friday Bev and here's to next week... Wooohoo!!
I think the photos you have chosen are quite representative of teal. There are some lovely fabrics in your pics. But I think you have to be considered the smartest with your inclusion of the cross stitch patterns for the teal ducks. What a great idea!
Have a lovely day.
Clever Cookie....thinking of the cross stitch patterns, well done on such a tricky colour.
Looking forward to next week's posts :-)
Cheers

Hi Bev, I was a bit jittery about finding the colour teal as well. But if you have a good look you do find it! Great collection you have. Kind regards, Anita.
Hi Bev, you did really well to find all this teal stuff this week.

Well done Bev with your collection of teals, especially the Teal Ducks cross stitch pattern.
Hi Bev...great post...teal is one of my favourite colours!!! Didn't know about the bird though!!! Dzintra♥x
I think you did very well with your teal colours - even if they did have you scratching your head. I Love the tie-dye fabric Lucy made - wow!
I do love the color teal. It always makes me think of the beach and those beautiful ocean waters. That fabric Lucy dyed is quite gorgeous. How fun!
Looks great. We appear to be using the same color of thread :)
Love your cross-stitch patterns.
It all looks like it would pass as teal for me. Love the cross stich teal!! Hope next week's is easier for you.
Hello Bev, enjoyed seeing your collection of Teal...Hugs Lyn
