Just before I leave to take DT to the doctor, My Guy calls. He's been in Tulsa attending some training. He's calling to say there's something wrong with the Jeep; it's not safe to drive. Can I come get him? Well that explained why he hadn't responded to my texts stating that DT was sick and going to the doctor, he'd been busy dealing with that situation. He ended up renting a car to get home.
I could hear the siren call of my sewing room when I finally did get home last night. Fabric therapy was just the thing to ease the tension of the afternoon. I didn't get a lot of stitching done, but I was able to finish off one more red Twinkle Star block to bring my total to three.
Twinkle Stars, Tutorial by Andrea Feldbush of Soscrappy |
August's Rainbow Scrap Challenge color for me is black, but I still have three more red blocks to make for last month. I'll get caught up at some point. Hopefully this weekend, if not, then next weekend.
I'll have to beg forgiveness for linking up with Angela's Rainbow Scrap Challenge with red blocks and not black this week.

Beautiful Twinkle Stars! I especially love the one with polka dots.
Hope Drama Teen is better soon, and the Jeep on the mend too. Your stars are gorgeous, and at least you were making RSC stuff albeit in the wrong colour. I linked without a single teeny weeny RSC thing to show, even though I had a busy week at my machine.
Strep is no fun (and contagious) so hope all recoup soon. I just love those twinkle stars - geesh, if I wasn't so busy.
Sorry to hear that Drama Teen is sick (and the Jeep is, too!) Good thing you were able to get in some stress-relief sewing time. You need to stay well.
Yuck, yuck, yuck, on the pre-school illness. We've all got a cold (but not strep), so I know it's no fun! Your blocks are fabulous, as always!
No apologies needed on my behalf. Stitching/Scrap therapy counts no matter what color.
Gorgeous as always, no matter what color!
I always love your stars, no matter what color!
I have to say, the quilt on your banner in stunning! It's terrific.
these blocks are outstanding. I keep seeing stars called twinkle but yours are awesome. I want to make some now. LeeAnna
Beautiful twinklers! Sorry DT is not feeling well.Hopefully the meds kick in and she is ok to start school and feels better.
Your fabric selection on these twinkle stars is dead on. Do they finish at 12"?....and do you have a plan for them?
Wow, when it rains, it pours. I hope that DT is on the mend and that the Jeep fix is not to bad. Really like the new twinkle star block.
Your scrap stars are gorgeous! I especially like the red and yellow one. I've been thinking of a red and yellow quilt for a while now. Seeing the colors together in other people's work makes me like the combination even more. (I'm just not sure about a whole quilt, though!)
Love those red blocks! I'm a bit behind myself. Hope DT is well soon.
