Inspired by Diann at Little Penguin Quilts, in 2021 I made this top as part of the Rainbow Scrap Challenge that year. Somewhere along the way it got quilted, but has been hanging in my studio closet waiting for binding as I got carried away with newer projects. In a frenzy of binding-making a few weeks ago, I got one made for this quilt, sewed it on & put it in the queue for evening hand-binding. Finally, it is a finish! I’m calling it “Zig-Zag”. (So original, I know.) It may be a future graduation quilt, or turn into a donation, if it sits around long enough.
July finishes out purple with Moda Blockheads. I finished all the ones I want to do from Set #1, so these + the aquas & teals are from Set #2. I only need 5 more blocks to finish up the layout I want to do.
End of July check-in: I have a goal to get 12 WIPs to flimsy stage this year, meaning a project started before 2025.

I made a zig zag quilt inspired by Diann too. Mine needs a backing and it needs to be quilted. Yours is awesome. What are the dimensions?
My quilting receipt says 57×66. I used 5″ squares for the HSTs & squared them up to 4.5″.
Sue, your Zig-Zag quilt turned out adorably! Yep, that would be a simple yet gratifying RSC project!
Your Zig-Zag is gorgeous – seeing it makes me want to make another one! I gave the one I made to a teacher friend. Love the Blockheads in RSC colors, too. It will be fun to see the layout of that quilt!
