Well, we are back into blue!!!
This is my third rainbow scrap challenge year.
Doing things differently, I actually have a list
of blocks/projects to do for RSC.
Usually I just punt and hope for the best.
Starting this year with wonky stars.
The backgrounds will be colors
instead of always white. These can
be used together with the white star
squares to add more variety to the quilts.
I finished up the stars with a nice stack of sixteen to put
into the parts department.
While looking for more white scraps, lots of strips
showed up!
Three, yes three wonky log cabin tops were
finished up during the week's sewing! I started
sewing the blocks New Year's day.
They are measuring (56 x 80)
so they can easily be a family quilt when upsized by
adding one more row. I certainly have more strips!
Stitching up a
matching baby quilt to keep on hand would be fun.
A blue and pink wonky log cabin should be adorable!!
I am trying to work through my RSC list.
A lot of small little pieces showed up during the
bin sort, (I was looking for white pieces to use in the stars.)
This morning, I will sewing up all those bits to prep
fiddlesticks for next month's RSC. Here is this
month's offering and they were great fun to do!!
You have been busy! Love the star blocks and the others too. I stick to my blue UFO's this month, nothing new, yet. :)
ReplyDeleteThe log cabins were a big squirrel and really fun to do. Great to hang a flimsy in the closet so early in the year!
DeleteYou are off to a roaring good start for RSC23, Deb! Kudos to you and your productivity!
ReplyDeleteThank you. Some traveling in March will take me away from the machine so I think my sewjo is trying to get ahead!
DeleteYou surely do have a plethora of blue blocks and we’re only 1/2 way through January! Hooray!
ReplyDeleteThe little stars just draw me in and I can't stop making them!
DeleteI'm always searching for white pieces too. I love your wonky blue star! THREE tops done already and we are only in the middle of January!!! WOW! You rock, girl. Congrats! ;^)
ReplyDeleteThank you, I will slow down, but stitching is a great excuse to listen to some good Britbox shows or chat with sew friends on zoom calls. And I do love all the fabric!!!
ReplyDeleteLots of lovely projects - I like the stars and the swapping of the white will make for an interesting quilt. xx
ReplyDeleteYou are an inspiration for using up your strings! I keep thinking a log cabin quilt would be great to make but I have enough things started so I'm trying to hold off!
ReplyDeleteI love your fiddle sticks! You can use some really small scraps with that too. I've had a scrappy star in my wish list for quite awhile too.
ReplyDeleteI love your star blocks! Scrap quilt are always so much fun to look at, to really appreciate all of the fabrics. Have fun stitching your fiddle sticks and the irish chain quilt, too :)
