V...is for Violet

I'm catching up with Katy from www.nobigdill.com

as she Sews Through All 26 letters of the alphabet.

Today's post is about one of my favorite colours.

Sweet Violet.

Of all the colours I love,

(and I love many)

 only one

made it into my girls names.

It makes me happy.

Always.

This little monster is deep in her 2ness.

Nonetheless,

 a little double gauze top came her way.

The above treasured doll

was aptly christened by Yu as "NoNo".

For all the 2 year old reasons you'd expect.

Nu has had a YaYa for years now.

And, for a while it was perfect.

Recently Pu wanted in on the name game

and rechristened one of her dolls

"Maybe. "

Also perfect for conflicted & shifting inner ennui.

A little Nani Iro Japanese Import Fabric.

In the most eggplant of violet of colours.

It's the perfect choice for

pretend fishing in the front yard.

It also works when you need to gaze innocently

at your parents

and then steal your sisters toys.

 She keeps getting away with it

due to a mostly good natured big sister pack.

Eventually that bubble will

POP

But not today.

Today is for good naturedly

drowning mom's car keys.
