Scrappy Stuff

There's not been a Rainbow Scrap Challenge post on my blog since last March!  I knew there hadn't been many this year, but none in almost 6 months?  When I think about it, there are a few obvious reasons.  Both my personal and my professional schedules have been a bit nuts this year.  I don't have as much time to draft blog posts, I've chosen to stitch rather than get photos together and write.  Plus this year's RSC project, Wild and Goosey, isn't coming together very quickly.  Those little blocks take a while to get done. This is all I've gotten done so far this year.

Based on Bonnie Hunter's pattern in Addicted to Scrap

I just finished cutting a bunch of purple scraps for this month's color, but don't have any purple blocks started.

But there are some purple scrappy blocks back up on the design wall.  These are the blocks from the 2015 Rainbow Scrap Challenge.

It's way past time to get these into a finished flimsy. 


So I've got two rows back up on the design wall and have started sewing the blocks together.  I'm excited to get this quilt to the finished stage.  My One Monthly Goal was to get all the blocks sewn together.  Hopefully I can do that by Monday!  

Linking up with the weekly RSC linky party and on Sunday with Oh Scrap.

    So fun to see your Twinkle Stars come back out to play! They are such a pretty and different star block. Hope you reach your goal!

    Your schedule sounds like mine: sewing is happening, but photos and blogging? Not so much. I love your Twinkle Star blocks and am so eager to see this come together!

    Better to spend what precious time you do have sewing rather than getting blog posts together and I’d say you’ve been coming along very well. Love that wild and goosey and the twinkle stars are adorable.

    What a wall of beauty! Love those stars and your wild & goosey look amazing. I can see how they take a bit of time but I'd say well worth it!

    I love the Twinkle Star Block and remember doing them for an RSC quilt a few years ago. Yours are so varied and lovely! They are a definite contender for one of my 2020 RSC blocks.

    Twinkle stars are gorgeous and i know what you mean about the goosey blocks. I started making them before i retired. If i could make some on a weekend before heading out on another business trip i still felt like a quilter.

    Your Wild and Goosey blocks look fantastic, and I am very happy to see that the Twinkle Stars have reappeared!

    I'm also super behind on the RSC. I don't think I've completed my blocks since February or March! I'm thinking I might just hold them over until next year. I love your twinkle stars!!!
