Also in the big scrap bag from 2 weeks ago, there is this Cat Elves fabric. It has glitters!
I have a mind to use it as the backing for the crooked table runner from my last post. The colours don't match but it would be two for one, full of glitters. 😃
Fiona from BubzRugz told me she loves when I get scraps bags. She said: "it's like we all get to play with them!" (And I thought it was boring you.) Well then, here's one more from the big bag.
Found some hexies but one is MIA. 😕 (They aren't cut perfectly but still workable.) I hope to find it so I can do something with them. Or a little piece of the print would be good too. No, I'm not done looking through all those bags. (so many) As you can see in the picture, this print is also glittery. I think I jinxed myself when I called my December post "It's Glitter Season". 😄
With all these scraps recently added to the Pink bags (and all the other colours), I'm afraid my comparison photos, at the end of the month, will not show bags with slimmer figures. I'll try to use (cut) some more this week again. Sigh! Stay tuned.
See you in a week, God willing.
;^)
P.S. Thank you for all of your help about the comments not coming to my email. I appreciate the help and it is now working beautifully but I had to enable the approval thingy. Sorry for that. Enjoy your sewing time. :^D
P.P.S. My little brother passed away this week. Don't feel bad, I'm okay and he is in a much better place. Poor kiddo, he had it rough. So, all is good. Enjoy your day no matter what it brings. 💖
I will visit these talented ladies over the weekend. Hope to catch you there too.

Condolences on the death of your brother.
I wouldn't worry about the border on your donation quilt. But an idea for the future when you use a stripe for the border would be to add cornerstone blocks , which is easier to do than mitering the corners. It will be loved just as it is. And that was a lot of pink.

My sympathy on the passing of your brother.
Your pink blocks are a home run! So many different blocks... I enjoyed reading through all of your narratives!
I am sorry to hear of your brother's passing, always a terrible loss even though as you said, he had a rough life.
That is a lot of pink for someone who doesn't care for the color. They are great blocks though and when you complete the quilts they will have way less impact than they do all together now, and maybe you'll just come to like them.
Very sorry to read about your brother.
I think I would have had enough of pink by now! Love the hexie fabric, shame there is one missing. xx
LOVE pink never ever too much for me! so much scrappy goodness going on.
I wish your brother peace. My big brother died last fall after a rough life too and I hope he is in a better place.
SEW productive, Chantal!!
Tous ces blocs et quilts roses sont charmants ! Oui, si ce n'est pas ta couleur préférée, ça peut faire beaucoup ;))
Désolée pour le décès de ton frère, je t'embrasse.
Sorry to hear of your brother. We got a phone call this week about my hubby's estranged brother who passed as well. So many pink projects in the works. You have been busy this month.
Well, I think you have sufficient projects to keep you for a year. Fortunately, you have pink out of the way and can move on to other colors. Now blue, our next color, is one I never tire of.
Even when we can accept the death of a loved one as "being in a better place" the loss hurts for what might have been and memories of happier times. My condolences.
You HAVE sewn a lot of pink this month! I'm always ready for a new color at this point, too. Those elf kitties are cute! They would be fun on the back of a runner so that you can use both sides. You're making some great baby donation quilts, too! They're going to be loved!
