February is the Yellow Month. My personal Yellow challenge is the Buttons and Spools quilt, made in 2020. It needs a back, pinning, and quilting just like the Smile quilt did in January. So, instead of having two quilts half quilted at the end of February, I will just continue to work on Smile. :^)
(Yes, I know, it's only the second month of the year and I'm already breaking the rules. That's the prerogative of being the maker of the rules. Hehehe.)
BUT, I will be working with yellow to do things like this.
Before all this, I had to finish a few things with the pink fabric, like these two crumb blocks I had started.
Then I saw the little pieces leftover from the pink tulip. Well, I'm not one to throw away some good fabrics, so ...
I did find the yellow ones,
but can't locate the red ones. I'm sure they'll show up eventually. My sewing room needs a good tidy-up session.
Anywho! I'm hook on tiny little blocks again. They are so cute!
Now that I have another tulip block finished, I can sew two more Shoo Fly blocks. Yay!
My hand sewing project is coming along too.
All the yellow leaves are done. I am working on the green one on top. Twelve leaves are done, eight to go. I know the background looks blue but, believe me, it is actually white.
One final picture to remind me that I am only as good as my coffee is.
Happy sewing!
;^)

Que c'est lumineux, joyeux et beau tout ce jaune ! Haha, ton café est presque bon ? ;-)) Les minis blocs sont adorables, les roses, et les jaunes !
Funny how the small projects which have those smaller blocks get us every time. Love your shoe fly blocks.
I love your shoe fly blocks, the tinier the cuter, right?
I went back and forth between those tulips blocks until I figured out the blooper. You are a glutton for tiny blocks.

I am always glad that we all make our own quilting rules! I enjoyed seeing your pink and yellow blocks, Chantal - bloopers keep us humble, right?!
Rules are made to be broken! I've not started on my "yellow" month's UFO yet either, apart from taking a photo of its present state. I'm glad you've found a purpose for your scrap triangles from the tulip blocks; those shoo fly blocks are sweet.
Love those tiny shoo-fly!
Great blocks!
Those tiny blocks are adorable. Keep breaking the rules. You are happy and productive. That is more than most!
I like to all them guidelines rather than rules. I break them all the time:)
Lovely blocks. Thanks for sharing with Oh Scrap!
Yellow is one of my favorite colors. Love all your blocks.
Well, rules were always made to be broken. Love all the pretty pink and yellow happiness to be enjoyed here. So many sweet little blocks.
LOVE your sweet YELLOW Shoo Fly blocks (and the fact that you share your bloopers with us, Chantal!!)
I love your final comment. I guess your coffee wasn't good enough that day. All of your blocks are very pretty. Enjoy your stitching.
some lovely projects... great to have the variety... yes bloopers are needed to keep us grounded!!

We all make bloopers!
bloopers make things interesting,lol.
Yellow is the perfect color for February which can be dreary.
Yellow is my favorite color so I love these tulip bl0cks. The yellow shoo-fly ones are lovely, too. I have so many crumbs, I need to sew more crumb blocks. They make lovely scrap quilts. Your leaves are looking lovely. Thank you for making my quilty day sunny ... :) Pat
