For the colour Purple, my Rainbow UFO Challenge is Framed 9-Patch and it is now a top. A small top.
It measures 56 X 48 inches. I might add another row at the bottom.
For the solid coloured fabric, I was disappointed in the purple I had to play with. They look like funeral parlor purple. Yuck!
Pretty lilac and eggplant kind of purple make these blocks sing. The bottom left is more of a black cherry colour or deep red wine but since I didn't use it when we had the red month, I'm throwing it in this month. :^D
And for la pièce de résistance, a purple placemat with lots of dots, circles and splashes!
I finished the binding early this morning. The backing is something between dusty rose and color-me-purple on navy. It's an oldie but I am happy with the result. See Joyful Quilter's blog for more Table Scrap Challenge goodies.
And here we are at the end. Phew! That was a lot of stuff this week.
Things have returned to normal at work (whatever normal now means!) It was more fun getting up in the morning to go to work, you know I mean? anywho! It's a long weekend now and sewing is all I can think of.
Enjoy!

You did well with all your purple blocks... and just in time before the end of July... almost time to start the next lot!

I love your framed 9 patch top! Happy and fun! There are so many shades of purple - those that tend toward brown are harder to like. But yours will all play together in the different blocks in the end!
You've done well with all those purple blocks, thsts a lot of stitching. Orange is the next colour, I'd finished with my purple blocks so have already started on orange.
Your framed 9 patch does look great. Nice work with your purples. xx
I really love how the Framed 9-patch blocks look like the colors float. Using the same background in the frame was genius!
Your framed nine patch is a riot of color. Looks like orange is the new color for RSC. Have a good week, going to be a hot one here in western NY.

Loved all your purple play!And your first quilt is such a winner. Thanks for sharing, Chantal.
Those framed nine patch blocks sure make a wonderful top! I liked all your purple blocks. I especially enjoyed your description of purple fabrics. . .lilac to eggplant!
Great progress this week. Thanks for linking up with Oh Scrap!
Hi Chantal, your placemat is really cute - with purple and dots and a cat :-)
I'm going to miss purple, but the switch to orange will cheer me back up!
Funeral parlour purple - too funny! You accomplished a lot.
Voilà une belle série de blocs, bravo pour cette semaine productive ! J'adore le set de table et sa variété de violets 😍
Merci pour le partage ❤️
