Enough Pink?

Pink is not one of my favourite colour so I'm starting to have enough of Pink. 

I sew Pink

Crumb Blocks 

and Pink 

Bonus Points units (the last one is not that dark, it's more salmon)

and Pink 

Friends' Favourite base units. 

(I had to cheat a little with the one on the right. I love this print and it's the first time I see it in pink. It was just not 3.5". The seams are just not a quarter inch. Ha! They all came from the bags.) 

and Pink 

Baby Flannel quilt 

and Pink 

Stained Glass blocks (the ones on the left are salmon, not brown.)

and Pink 

9-Patch blocks. The salmon print is truer in this picture. 

and I got Pink 

WOF and Fat Quarter

samples of the scraps and 

more samples of the scraps I got

from the BIG gifted bag of two weeks ago. I'm ready for something else. So, I sew 

Neutral

triangles for Stained Glass blocks
(Don't think I've done all these this week. They are a month's worth.)

and blue 

Shallow Pond blocks done during January

and blue

border on baby flannelette quilt with rockets

and Aqua

border on pink baby flannelette quilt 

I'm not exactly in love with the way I sew the border on this one. The corners are bothering me but then again, it's a donation. I won't see it ever again once it's done. They both need batting scraps and a backing, and to the "to be quilted" pile they will go. 

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.

Colour Me Orange and Call Me Pumpkin!

The morning found me playing with orange... and rust.

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. 

I didn't see it in the first photo but I see it now and I love it. The bottom left diamond is wonderful to my eyes. I'm a sucker for blue and brown and although these blocks are rust and dark purple, the effect is almost the same. Love it. 

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? 

1- crumb blocks

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!

Design Wall Monday

Wow! I haven't been here on Monday for like ages!

I had some sewing sessions this weekend and this is on my design wall this morning,

along with a bunch of these.

The orange blocks are for my RSC2020 that I had not done in Orange due to the fact that I didn't have a RSC2020 plan/block when it was Orange month. (Does that make sense?) The second picture is an attempt to downsize my scrap bins. One orange, three greens, two neutral and no change in the bins. They are 6.5 X 8.5 inches but not trimmed yet.

My sewing station still looks under siege.

More sewing sessions this evening.

Have a great one.
;^)
