RSC2025 Second Block

You might have seen this one before as it is all over the Internet where I first spot it. The Colorful Fabriholic did one in red. Oh! Wow! Jan saw the same picture I've seen and fell in love with. See here



I believe the notes are Jan's. Scrappy or not, this one looks great. But being me, I'm taking it one step further. Or maybe it's a step back, I don't know but anywho, my plan is to have fun with it. 
I did the Aqua in 2024 as a tester block. Then 3 pinks for January's colour. 


So many possibilities ...
So many reasons to make more ... 

Three more came to play. They are the reason I added fabric to the scraps. It's kind of contradictory to the plan to add to the scraps but ... that's what I needed ... until I found the other bags. I left the additional fabric in the scrap bag anyway. 


I seem to like this layout the best but I have the whole year to decide. I have a mind to make one scrappy as in the above picture for the Quilts for Survivors. Yes, I would love to send them more quilt tops. Not promising the tops will go this year but I'll work on a top for them during the year. Maybe the RSC one will be donated, who knows? 


I said I would sew on Tuesday night but I didn't this week. The first Tuesday of the month is the ARTisanat's meeting (where I brought more gifted scrap bags home). I brought the three baby quilts as donations to the Baby's Angel. Yes, I said three as I finished another one last weekend. WhooHoo!! 


Rainbow on the Sidewalk (aka HST Baby quilt) is done and gone. I love this one. It was a top in 2023. You can see the two other baby quilts here. Both were made with flannelette, and Rainbow is scrap cotton with a flannelette backing. No, it did not diminish any of the flannelette bins but the year is still young. 😁




I really, really love this one. And it received a lot of "Ah" and "Oh" during "show and tell" at the meeting. 

I played "thread chicken" and lost. An inch from the edge! Darn! 


Also did some little 9-Patch blocks ... 

... but that's for another post. 

Have a wonderful week, everyone. Only 50 more weeks to go. 😂😂😆🤣🤣🤣

;^)


I will visit these talented ladies over the weekend. Hope to catch you there too.
