Joining Angela and other scrap enthusiasts at Rainbow Scrap Challenge for the second week of YELLOW. There was a time I didn’t have much yellow, but I’ve slowly been accumulating yellow and gold. So now there are scraps.
This week I finally got the first yellow 16 patch star assembled. And because I’m behind, an aqua block too. You know how sometimes when you take a break from a project, you sort of forget how it goes? No? Well, let me explain. I found some already cut, small white squares . They measured 1.75”. I cut 2 more sets, I need 8 squares for the star points. I happily stitched them to corners of the selected 4 squares surround the white star center. Can you see the difference?
I’ll intersperse a few more like it so it doesn’t stand out as the “odd duck”!.
There are more squares laying on design boards. I’ll try to get them and two more each to get caught up!
This week I also continued making Birthday Pin Cushions. I’m caught up with August birthdays, and there are none in September. So I’ll catch up on February and March birthday’s during the short break.
Trying to stay focused.
Stay Busy and Stay Happy and Healthy and Hopeful
I have definitely had that happen where I was a little "rusty" on how a block went together! But your stars look great to me, Judy! I think it takes longer to cut out what you need for them than to actually sew them together!
ReplyDeleteI'm sure those pretty birthday pin cushions will be well received.
ReplyDeleteSuch cute prints in your RSC blocks, Judy! I know just what you mean--I forget what the deal is, too, if I've been away from it a little bit. Your blocks look great. Cute birthday pin cushions, too--nice embroidery!
