This week I had fun with my light blue fabric and made these
three blocks.
For 2018 I’m participating in Squared Away a sampler project
for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge and this is the January block. Mari – The Academic Quilter – has blogged about
a Red Cross, this Clara Stone block that dates to 1906, you can see her
post and instructions here.
Angela (Soscrappy) and Mari (The Academic Quilter) have
designed a sampler quilt which we will be piecing through for the first 10 months
of this year, hopefully I will quilt and bind it before the end of the
year. Just one more way for me to sew
through my stash.
After sewing my blocks I added the remaining cut fabric to
my stash of strips, ready and waiting for a future quilt idea.
Consider joining in the weekly fun, get inspired or just enjoy the many lovely projects at the Rainbow Scrap Challenge.

ReplyDeleteLOVE your scrappy blocks, but I really love those wonderful piles of potential!!! My eyes can't quite take in what they are looking at in those stacks of fabric strips.
ReplyDeleteLovely blocks; which size are you making? I haven’t decided yet, so I’m interested to read what others are doing.
ReplyDeleteI'm making the 10 inch block, I like the size and the idea of working with 2 1/2 inch strips.
DeleteGreat start on your RSC sampler!
ReplyDeleteYour blocks look great. Have fun with the challenge.
