A fetish for Aqua

Aqua. I love always have.  When I was a kid, there were five of us ... four girls and to keep track of whose clothes were whose (especially smalls) we had to embroider a couple of stitches of our designated colour on all our clothes.  As the last of the tribe, the primary colours were all taken, so my colour was aqua.  My bath towel was aqua too I think.  Anyway, you'd think after that early childhood experience that I would hate it.  In fact, I am surprised how often it somehow emerges in the colour choice, so when I finally finished my colour wheel quilt and saw the backing/binding alongside a new "present for self" Christmas mug and my summer handbag, I had to smile.
