For the solid fabric challenge, I used my mother's stash. She obviously wasn't the type to love orange. I could only find three, so I added the rust-coloured one.
It's truly a rich rust colour in person. That brings the total to 35 blocks. Want to see them all together?
It needs more reds and yellows too, I think. There are too many purple and blue blocks but I still like it.
Did you see it? One of the blocks is upside down. It's all right as this is in no way the final layout because I want to add more blocks.
Speaking of purple, I did finish two purple crumb blocks this week. I'm always behind with the crumb blocks. Maybe I have too many RSC projects this year. What do you think?
2- 9-Patch blocks
3- Solid fabric blocks
4- Scrap Jar Star
5- Jericho Wall
6- Placemat
I'm tempted to add another one but I will refrain from doing so... for now. Want to know what it is? Lynn did a lovely quilt with some darker neutral colours. You know, those darker lights that I have and don't know what to do with? See her quilt here. It got me thinking. I could do a Framed 9-Patch (also inspired by one of her quilts) with the darker neutrals. What do you think? Maybe I'll do a few blocks and see if I like it. Oh! it will be fun!
Hope you have fun sewing too. Enjoy!

I love your first RSC blocks, all laid out. Is that one called Jericho walls? I'm so tempted to make so many different RSC blocks!!!
Well, it took me forever, but I finally found the errant block. I must be having an off day as I didn't get Wordle this morning either. Oh well, tomorrow is another day.

Love those blocks. Goodness - that's a lot of RSC projects!
Going so well with your RSC projects.... I wonder how long it will be before you can't resist starting the next one.... (within a month I think!!! haha)

I understand completely with wondering about too many RSC projects going on. Guess we just cant help ourselves.
Oh yes, I always want to see all your blocks together, and those are great! I love the design they make, Chantal. The Horixon quilt is a pretty one, too - you should go for it!
This is a really cool RSC block. Are they 6" fin or bigger? It's always fun to see how the RSC blocks look together. Some years I make lots of different blocks some years I stick with only one style of block. This year it is a single style. But I have been able to keep up pretty well. Hope you can too.
Like Bonnie, I think those solids make a really cool RSC block. But like you, I’m trying not to add any more blocks to my repertoire this year. Have a great week, Chantal!
Oh those blocks look so fun to arrange and play with different layouts. Nice!
Took me a while to find the 'mistake' but I got there in the end lol. The blocks are looking great all together. xx
The mistake was hard enough to find when I was looking for it. I wonder if it would be fun to just leave it there!
