Rainbow Scrap Challenge April 9th

 

Joining Angela and others at Raunbow Scrap Challenge. 

These week I sewed one orange 16-patch.

And cut and sorted 2 1/2’ squares of more orange and some light blue to finally catch up on January. 

Two small crumb blocks are being constructed as leaders and Enders while stitching the 16-patch squares. Nine year old great granddaughter was very interested in sewing on my machine. We will explore that this summer. 

There was a bit more orange and orangish here this week. In my grocery order I included some Wild Wonder Medley tomatoes. They came in a large square clamshell. I washed them and dried them and they are sitting on the counter in my mom’s Jewel Tea mixing bowl. I love how they look! We are eating them like candy! So  so good.

ScrapHappy Saturday. April 4th

 

Joining all the scrappy quilters today at Angela’s ScrapHappy Saturday

Angela announced the color for April last week. It is PINK. 

So I got the first 16-patch star block done, in Pink. 

Also this week I completed the 4th red block for March, got 2 more green blocks cut out and one sewed, for February and 2 blue blocks complete for January . 

So my goal is to get 2 more blue blocks, one more green and a 2nd pink one. Then I’ll be caught up. 

I’ve also been sewing crumb blocks for each color of the month. Didn’t get to the pink scraps this week, but there are some crumbs in my bags of scraps. So next week you will see more pinky scrappiness. 

Off to check out other posts at So Scrappy.

ScrapHappy Saturday. 3-21-26

 

Today I’ll share at Rainbow Scrap Challenge. I have a third 16 patch  star completed. One more to go. I need to get 2 more green ones done. And go back and do Blue for January. Now that Project Quilting 17 and SAHRR have come to an end, I should be able to do those. If I get them all cut out and on design boards, I can use them as Leaders and Enders for each other. 

And there will be crumb blocks !

I’m linking up with Angela and friends for the 2nd Red Saturday of March and Rainbow Scrap Challenge.. I made 2 16-patch Star blocks. And one is ready to sew. 

I’ve done a bit of math and decided I’ll need at least 4 of each color.  I got 2 green ones made for Feb and none for blue January. I guess I have some catching up to do. 

Tomorrow is the last for Project Quilting 17. I missed completing 17.5 “ of Another Era” and 17.6 “ My Complements “. I really hope I can complete this last one. Stay tuned. 

Also I started the quilting  on Make Do and Mend for 2026 SAHRR. The parade is the 25th, so I need to have it done by then. NO PRESSURE!!  LOL

I have just started reading. So far I like it and it’s RED.

Linking up with Angela at So Scrappy  Green is February’s selected color. I made a second

 16 patch star block. . The one on the left is the second one. 

I also sewed crumb blocks. I’m using all my greens in the crumb blocks. 

Other sewing this week, was an item for Project Quilting 17. This week’s prompt was Of Another Era. So many possibilities. It didn’t go as planned.  This was a panel from my stash. A front and back of a Smiley pillow. I cut out the circles.. The directions say sew the front to the back and stuff. They are not the same size. 

Also a new prompt was announced for SAHRR. This week our round should be 2 Colors. 

Still haven’t landed on a plan.Maybe this afternoon. I might tweak the rules a tiny bit. No Quilt Police during SAHRR. This is what it looked like yesterday.
