Here it is! My first RSC2025 flimsy for the year. Happy dance! It is Scraptastic Stars by Melissa Corry of HappyQuilting & made entirely from scraps in my stash. Yippee! (Well, except for the 2 gold FQs I purchased to get some more variety.) I’m very happy with this & will put it in the queue for quilting in the new year.
In my long-time quilt group, we are now working on a flag quilt that has 3 shades of blue stars by a block of red stripes. I tried to do it all from my stash, but couldn’t collect enough matching background, so bought yardage for that, although red & blue were already here. We need 20 of each blue shade, so the first set of stars is done! These are my light blue, then I’m doing a medium & a dark star.
RSC2025 project status:
Angela’s Sawtooth Stars 2015: 8 stars made, need more stars & chain blocks (continue in 2026)
Scrap Stash Plus: all blocks made, need to assemble
Scraptastic Stars: flimsy!
Moda Blockheads: all blocks made, need to make the complicated sashing
Strippy Slab Star: 8 stars made, need to decide on layout & make whatever that entails
County Fair: all blocks made, need to cut setting triangles & assemble
Patchwork Hearts: need to make 2 gray hearts, then assemble
2.5″ Rail Fence: 32 blocks made to add to RSC2024 total, need to make some decisions!
Scraptastic Stars is gorgeous, Sue! I love how the design goes into the sashing and borders. Those blue stars are pretty, too – love that shade of blue! That sounds it will be a neat quilt.
It’s a cute pattern. Stay tuned-it will be next year before we are done. All those little flying geese/star take time! Plus we talk & slow down on sewing. LOL
Oh my!!! I love this one so much!!!! What a great RSC project!!
Thank you!!!
