Green for March

I've been wanting to try half square triangles... I found a pinwheel pattern I like and I think it'd be a great project to do for Rainbow Scrap Challenge, BUT I had all kinds of trouble making my first two.

I figure the trouble with my points comes from the trimming.  More practice is necessary.

Linking up with the Rainbow Scrap Challenge tomorrow.

Have a great weekend.

Sort of caught up

Yesterday and today I finished the goosey smiles for the red and aqua

closer close up

Now I'm caught up to all the RSC colors except the multi.
I'll be linking up the green geese on Saturday.

Have a great long weekend.

March: The Red Month

As you know I jumped the gun and sewed ahead.  The five red geese are finished for March, and I made one red butterfly and a red leaf, too.

Next pictures are of the star blocks for the H2H charity quilt made with the "found" bundle of 5" squares that I made years ago for another Jazzy Snowball Quilt like the one I donated in 2013 (seen below).

The last two aren't pressed yet.  I've got another 2 in the works, and that will be the main focus of sewing here until that quilt is done.

Thanks for stopping. Go over to the Rainbow Scrap Challenge on Saturday and see what others have made red.

Have a great weekend!

Hugs,

This Week, a Goosey Smile!

Okay, I didn't do as much sewing this week. Too much game playing, I guess. Bad habits are hard to break.  I did make another goose strip and a goosey smile...

 Right now a strip under the needle... see the "pile" to the left?  That's the next geese waiting in the wings...LOL

 And here's the smile. I used a lovely light batik for the background. The pattern for the strip and smile come from Quiltmaker (online free pattern) Vintage Sunburst - paper pieced, of course.

So I'm off to share on the Rainbow Scrap Challenge. Go over to see all the purplely goodness.

 

Have a great weekend.

Rainbow Scrap Challenge today!

I have always wanted to make this block... it's just as easy as can be. Mine here are 2.5" strips.

I wish you could see how pretty that lavender strip is.  I remember buying the darkest one. I got it in Vancouver at the Craft Warehouse.
So this is one of the blocks I want to make for RSC. Next week I show some stars I want to make. Now I'm off to share this with the rest of the group at The Rainbow Scrap Challenge

Have a wonderful weekend.

Rainbow Scrap Challenge Butterfly

Remember these?  Well, I found my pattern and made one in September colors.

The navy blue is my ironing board cover.  Scissors for size comparison.
Check in with the Rainbow Scrap Challenge at soscrappy on Saturday Sept. 24 to see what others have made from these colors.

 

Have a great weekend.

Last of the pink butterflies

The latest...

So, as long as I have been paper piecing, I've been making "mistooks". (Hahaha... spell check does not like that one.) Anyway, the two on the right are made with 2 colors of off white. It's a scrappy challenge, and I didn't realize I didn't have enough of the one color. Also, The pink rose print ran out... Well, first off I made 2 of the same side - like the heart I made earlier this month.  Mistooks all over the place. So I made two mutant butterflies. I hope they multiply - in lots of different colors. (You do know that pink is a mutation for butterflies anyway.) LOL

Have a wonderful weekend. We are having a sunny (so far cloudless)  day, so my weekend is starting out great... except for the fact that our washing machine is broken down. It's only 3 months old.

Hugs,

Terri

Blue blox

Rainbow Scrap Challenge day, and I have one block, well, maybe 3 quilts started.

I sorted through the blues box...

I found the blocks I made for RSC last year...

Below is the kind of butterfly I wanted to make, but I couldn't find the pattern.

 I did find the pattern for the one below. Okay, I wanted to make a butterfly quilt, maybe I'll make 2.

So there it is. I'm thinking a color on white like this one, and a white butterfly on the color - a negative of this way. I'll work on that one next. Keep your fingers crossed for me so I can find my bigger butterfly pattern. (Should be in a heavy book box in Crafts.)

 

To see what others are making for the RSC check out soscrappy today.

 

And have a beautiful tomorrow,

Hugs,

Terri

More Purple Blocks

Here are some of the purple blocks I made this week.
These first six are leftovers, except for the one on the top right... I found a place for that one.

The pink blue yellow and teal print has to go in the quilt - and her cousin's quilt as well - because of the top I made for each of them when they were about 2.  There are other memory pieces in the quilt.

 

 

On Saturday, go to the RSC14 (3rd button on the side panel) to see others' purple blocks for April.

 

Happy Weekend!

Hugs,

Terri
