- gets me
using up my scraps, I’m digging into that bottom drawer of scraps and can
actually close it most days.

- Gives me
focus because it features a colour each month, which keeps me playing with
fabric, fun, refreshing and motivating.
- helps me
manage my scraps, some bits can be cut into shapes and strips for future
projects.

- Gets me
checking out other quilting blogs, great for inspiration and getting to know
other quilters.
AND… This week a
Rainbow of hand dyed fabric called ‘color wheel’ by Vicki Welsh arrived in the
mail from Angela at Soscrappy. Vicki of
Field Trips in Fiber sponsors the Rainbow Scrap Challenge at Soscrappy and each
month there is a giveaway of her hand dyed fabric, I won the August giveaway!

ReplyDeleteI too really enjoy participating in the Rainbow Scrap Challenge even though lately it has been a bit hit and miss. Congrats on winning that beautiful fabric!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful fabric, have you decided what you're going to make with it?
ReplyDeleteYou echoed my feelings so well. It is fun to have a focus for the month and to manage one small bit at a time. The Vicki Welsh fabrics look gorgeous. Congratulations on the win.

used to live in Edmonton!
I agree...without the RSC I think I'd have scraps everywhere instead of colorful blocks made from them. Lucky you to win some of Vicki's fabrics in a rainbow of colors.
ReplyDeleteThose scrap drawers have minds of their own, don't they? I'm glad your usually closes!
ReplyDeleteOh, love those shapes. I think I need to do that next year! Congrats on the win - can't wait to see what you use them in.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! They are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI think the RSC is my favorite sew along!
Congrats on the win! I love RSC for the same reasons you do...and I love to see what others have picked to sew in the rainbow too!
