SCRAPPY DAY....

 I've been working on my Red Work blocks...I have 8 61/2" squares...I was puzzled as what to do with them....8 blocks don't make a very big quilt.  So I put different colored borders around each block.  Now what to do with them is the next question.  I know I want to add a colored block between them...haven't decided what color to use...any suggestions....maybe a light yellow or orange....ummm...I'll have to lay it out and see what happens....

The new color for RSC is out...it's going to be
Purple...I'll have to drag out my Purple and make a basket.

So what have you been doing with scraps??  Lots of goodies

I hope...I'm linking up with:

U IS FOR......

 UP the stairs......

which I don't do anymore.  My bedroom used to be upstairs...but I can't climb them anymore.  How many steps are there....19.  Way tooooo many for me!

This is the last Blue Scrappy Saturday over at So Scrappy.  I've not got any BLUE to show you, but all the A to Z items for this quilt were made with scarps from my scrap bags.

I have a UFO  that is almost a filmsy.  The Tile Quilt needs  3 strips and it will be done.  

 

 

The Salt and Sand quilt is progressing.  All the fish are sewn on, the next border row will be Sand, I'll be adding Clams to this border.

These 3 quilts are my main focus for now.  So for today, I'll be cutting strips for the Tile Quilt, and a large strip for the Salt and Sand quilt.  What are you working on today?

UFO'S......

 we all have them...it could be one that's been around for years or it could be one that was made the beginning of this year.  I personally have around 15 of them.  Right now I've got 2 ready to finish.  Sunbonnet Sue is getting binding.

Overall Sam is in my hoop being tied.

Yesterday I cut the fabric to put my Red Work quilt together.  I think I'll put a final border of  a light green to this one.  So I have more than enough to keep me busy. 

Plus I'm still working on the frogs and tile quilts.  And over at Scrap Happy, the color for March will be green...have to get a basket done for this one.

1 IN THE HOOP......

 I finally got Sunbonnet Sue and Overall Sam sandwiched.  Sunbonnet Sue is in the hoop, ready to be tied.   I ran out of batting. I could have got a couple more filmsys together.  I either have to send a friend to Hobby Lobby or order the batting on line.  As slow as the deliveries have been by mail, I most likely will send a friend to Hobby Lobby.  

 

I have been working on a couple other things.  I got my yellow basket done for RSC 2021.

And February is American Heart Month....so I made a heart block for My National Calendar Quilt.

I am still working on the Tile Quilt.  I've got almost all of them done.  Just need a few more blocks and I can start putting it together.  What are you working on this weekend?  Click on the links to do a little blog hopping.

 I finally got the Jar Quilt don, with it's label.  Want to see a close up?  Just click on the picture.

I've also been working on the Tile Blocks.  This one is almost done.  I love looking through my scraps to find pieces to fit.  I fussy cut a couple of them.  The rooster and fish.  The Bunny Rabbit needs to be sewed down.

That's what I've been working on this week...what have you been doing this week?

BLOG SLUMP......

 Hi everyone,

I've been having a slump in blogging...didn't quite feel myself for a couple weeks...but I've got back on track.  I've got a few new things to share...so here goes.

First is a biggy to me...I FINALLY got Zoe's Quilt done and it went home with her yesterday...she was visiting last week.

This was my August OMG project...didn't quite make it...but it was close.  Speaking about OMG...my September goal is the Valentine Quilt..it's tied and I've started the binding.

I also got all my Crazy Quilt blocks for August done, the color was purple, they have all been embellished.  My grandson saw this block and said the yellow one at the bottom looks like Sponge Bob...I have to agree with him, it was just a lucky mistake this looks like Sponge Bob.

The new color for RSC 2020...September, is Red...so I pulled all my red scraps out and a few extra reds to add to the mix...I'll start working on them today.

So I've got something to keep me busy  for awhile...hope everyone has an awesome....

CRAZY QUILT EMBELLISHMENTS........

I've been playing around with the crazy quilt blocks I'm doing for RSC....I've started working on the January blocks, the color is Bright Green...I don't really have lots of green EMBELLISHMENTS.  But I found a few to play with.  I got  2 blocks embellished last night.
Block 1

 Block 2

This is the one I'm working on now....
Block 3

I've also got lots of Dark Blues...that's the color for the July RSC...I'll start working on those next week.

And of course in between working on these crazy quilt blocks, I'm still tying Zoe's Quilt...2 more rows to tie....then comes the binding.

SCRAPS AND TYING.....

It's a rainy day today...so working on my RSC quilt blocks will be a good project...along with working on Zoey's quilt.


I've been playing catch up on the RSC challenge.  I have 4 more blocks to make for April and I'll be all caught up....just in time for the new color in July.  June has been PINK..I've got them all done. 

                

      

       

  

I am making 5 Crazy Quilt blocks for each color...which at the end of the year will give me  60 8 1/2" blocks.....then they also need to be embellished...this is going to be a quilt that will be put on my To-Finish list....when it comes to embellishing them...sometimes a block will sit for days...while I figure out how I want to embellish it.  So you could say this is a long term quilt that will be waiting a while to get finished.  IN THE MEAN TIME.........

I've got Zoey's quilt in the hoop and started tying it.

I didn't relize how big this quilt was until I started putting it together....I was going for twin size but it's bigger than a twin size.  I haven't measured it...witch is a bad thing for me...I tend to eyeball it on measurements...but I'd say it's between a twin and full size.  It should fit Zoey's twin bed.  The date to have this finished is before Zoey's birthday in August.  Hopefully I'll get done in time. 

Hope you all have a wonderful.....
