For the Love of Lime

Many a quilt of mine has been enhanced by a touch (or more!) of lime. For example, Firefly Fancy (based on a Ricky Tims design):

Or Technicolour Dreaming:

Or Pacifica (a Donna Ward design):

I could go on - just look at my gallery of baby quilts! I am also partial to limes in cooking and spent this morning slaving over a hot stove making marmalade from the bucket of sour limes given to us by our neighbours last week:

My previous jam-making efforts have not been entirely successful but David has pronounced this batch very yummy AND it spreads on toast without sticking to everything else in the process.
