Notice a common element in these pictures?
Joseph’s Coat melons.
And more melons.
A multi-tone quilt.
A two-colour quilt.
Chintz Circles quilt.
A teddy bear quilt.
The answer may be that there’s a lot of pink to be seen in all those photos.
And now? Now I have a pink purse that has decorative melons on it. There’s a bit of a story to this. Earlier this summer, in one of the leather goods stores downstairs, I saw another pink purse and was quite taken with it but didn’t buy it when I first saw it. When I finally decided to buy it, it was gone. Yesterday I saw this one in the same store and immediately bought it. Didn’t hurt that it was on sale. Now I know there was a reason I didn’t get the one I saw earlier in the summer. This one is absolutely perfect for me. It’s pink, it has melons that make me think of Joseph’s Coat and Chintz Circles and — well, it’s pink!
Baxter wasn’t particularly interested, although I have a feeling if I left it where he could get it I’d find some kitty tooth marks. This is one of his favourite poses when sleeping and one that always make us laugh.

I thought I had on my rose colored glasses this morning when I read your post! 🙂
That purse had your name on it the minute it hit that shop! Or the shop owners are on to you and know if it’s pink, it will be purchased by you, and it didn’t hurt that it had melons on it either, what a great purchase!
Baxter is too cute!
