April Rainbow Scrap Challenge

The colour for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge for April was pink - one of my three favourite colours. I made some pineapple blocks...

... and some insects.

 

I made some scrappy 6.5" blocks and some 4.5" blocks for a future quilt top.

 Also some more coasters.

For this month of May, the colour is orange.

I'm starting a new quilt top this week with triangles - more in a few weeks.

Working on Another Backing

This week I have been working on the backing of Between the Lines quilt, designed by Irene of Surgaridoo. I finished the quilt top about 18 months ago, so time to turn it into a quilt. It is single bed size but we will use it as a picnic rug I think.

I used the left over blocks from the front to make a column feature for the back, then added large leftover scraps of black to make the back.

 

First one side, then the other.

Then the top half.

Yesterday I sandwiched the three layers and pinned - ready for quilting today.

March Rainbow Scrap Challenge

So good to be back in the sewing room. I finished what I had started back in March of the Rainbow Scrap Challenge, red things. I didn't make a lot, with not many days in the sewing room.

I have been working on April RSC blocks this week and last. I have so many pink scraps!

Today was the first full day I was able to spend in the sewing room, and it was wonderful. By 1.30pm I thought it must have been 5.30 😇, and I got so much done. Let's hope it continues all weekend.
