I had spent a few nights trying to think how I might avoid using the dreaded yellow and came up with an idea that a lime or apple green might work but on looking again at what was already cut I found I had already introduced a pale apple green, so that would not work. With a heavy heart I reached for the secret yellow stash, cut a couple of apple cores and threw them into the mix&#8230; presto! The whole thing started to come together.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mycrosspatch.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/1-IMG_3973.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-823\" alt=\"first Apple Core Quilt\" src=\"http:\/\/www.mycrosspatch.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/1-IMG_3973.jpg\" width=\"800\" height=\"731\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.mycrosspatch.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/1-IMG_3973.jpg 800w, http:\/\/www.mycrosspatch.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/1-IMG_3973-300x274.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 984px) 61vw, (max-width: 1362px) 45vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Then I went to my stash for a royal blue for the border but again&#8230;. it just wasn&#8217;t working, so off to the fabric shop I went,&#8230;..lavender blue? no, Airforce blue? no, Navy blue? no&#8230;..what about turquoise?
