Yellow Paintbox Blocks

It’s the last Saturday in Yellow for the Rainbow ScrapChallenge 2015.  I made a couple of Paintbox blocks (by Elizabeth Hartman blogging at Oh Fransson!) and now I have all the yellows that I need, just a few more blocks in other colours and I’ll be able to put the top together.

I did also get a few leaders and enders sewn and I finished all my little four patches in pink (January’s colour for the RSC), however I didn’t get a picture.

 

This morning I’m off to the quilt store to work on my Gravity Block of the Month!

Have a look at Soscrappy to see what others have done for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge.

A day patched with quilting seldom unravels.

Checking through my notes and piles of blocks, I found that I needed three more Scrappy Trip Along blocks, check out Bonnie Hunter's tutorial on these blocks.  I’m making seven of each colour in the Rainbow Scrap Challenge.  Last night I got together with a few other quilters for an evening of sewing and completed the last three (photographed alongside the pile of already completed blocks).

It looks like I still have a couple of Paint Box blocks to make in yellow, hopefully for next Saturday.  Be sure to stop by Soscrappy to see other luscious yellow projects.

Any day spent sewing, is a good day!

Good Morning Sunshine by Janet

Janet made this gorgeous baby quilt as a gift for her hairdresser’s expected baby.  The pattern is from Make it Modern a Better Homes & Garden Special Interest publication 2013.

Janet wanted it custom quilted as it was in the magazine.

And she used some of the fun fabrics on the back of the quilt as back art.

Isn’t this an adorable baby quilt?
