Woo, it's been a busy month! My granddaughter competed in the state Geography Bee the first of the month and of course I had to go watch her. It was a wonderful experience and we are very proud of her finish; 11th out of 100 students. Boy, some of the questions they were expected to know! I sure didn't know them. And then I got to spend five days with her and her brother while mom and dad went to Idaho to look for a place to live. Not happy about the move but they have to do what they have to do. Anyway, I enjoyed the week with the grandkids.
So, all that to explain why I'm so far behind in my green month. Making the umbrella this time in green I just am not as enthralled with it as I am with the earlier colors, especially the orange. Maybe it's having used the greyer greens and not the bright yellow-greens, which I don't seem to have any of.
The contrast between the background and the green just isn't strong enough to make the green stand out, I think, but it will fit in with the others just as well.
