I made a quilt top last week for an upcoming gift & it’s ready for the quilter. So when February started, I got right to work on my five RSC projects. The first week of February is over & I have them all conquered with the rest of the month ready for other projects! I feel so efficient & intentional!
Here are the orange blocks for Rainbow Stairsteps. I used more solid looking fabrics for the blacks this time & while I think it’s less distracting in some ways, I think I need more of the white on black prints thrown in, so I’ll do that in March. Based on a layout by Julie.
Orange square-in-square blocks for Sun Print 2016 by Alison Glass kit. So happy to be finally working on this project. The blocks are all the same, so it’s nice to break them up & work on a few each month.
Tumbling Strings got an orange row to add to last month’s two green rows. It is inspired by a selvage quilt by Cathy.
Orange crazy patch blocks will be cut into small blocks & used to create End of the Rainbow from Melissa Corry’s Irish Chain Quilts book.
I need four orange string blocks for the layout I have in mind for Diamond Strings. These are inspired by blocks created by Angela, the host of the RSC2020.
And orange progress on the bonus checkerboard blocks that are not really on my RSC2020 list but are getting done as L&E’s. We’ll see where I’m at by the end of the year.
So many great orange blocks that it is hard to pick a favorite. The tumblers and string are both great additions to your collection.
Wow! I am so impressed! I just now decided to join the RSC this year and am having trouble deciding what I want to do. First week over and you’ve done six different things! Seriously jealous. 🙂
Ohh I like all of your oranges! That one at the top – with the black – WOW – that really makes the oranges shine!!
You have got some GREAT blocks going for RSC and your orange blocks are spectacular! I loved Julie’s Stairstep blocks last year and was tempted to do them this year too. Maybe next year!?!?
Wow!! I want to come dig in your scrap stash. SEW many wonderful ORANGE blocks for the RSC!!!
