RSC September

I've been working on piecing my Rainbow Scrap Challenge quilt top together, as well as a few scrappy baby quilts this month!

First off, my RSC quilt. Last month I worked on the white with black background squares. This month I filled in the 9-patches I've been making all year long. Once they were on the design wall I was not happy with the darker blocks. Here are the original blocks on the design wall:

RSC August

I made my aqua blocks back in April! So I spent this month working on my white/cream snowball blocks for my 2025 RSC quilt. Plus, I made 4 scrap quilts for Bundles of Love. I tried to lean into "aqua" baby quilts, but sometimes color sneaks in!

I debated if I should make all the snowball corners one solid black fabric. Then it occurred to me, this is the Rainbow SCRAP Challenge--make them scrappy! ⤵️

Lynn has had a very productive August!!! Here are 7 quilts I quilted for her this month:

RSC 💛 Jelly Roll Drag Race

This year, for Rainbow Scrap Challenge, I'm making jelly roll race baby quilts for Bundles of Love, a local charity that delivers bundles of newborn items to families in need. 

March is the yellow month for RSC, a lesser used color in my collection. Still, I had enough strips to put together 2 baby quilts!

⌺ Jolee ⌺

On Saturday, February 15th, Gudrun of GE Designs hosted an all-day quilt-along for her newest pattern, Jolee! 

The QAL was free with the purchase of the pattern. She broadcast instructions and slideshows of quilts in progress at 10 am, noon, 2 pm and 4 pm on YouTube and Facebook, each lasting about 30 minutes.

RSC 💙 Jelly Roll Drag Race

 For 2025, I'm working on whittling down my 2 1/2" scrap strips drawer. This calls for a serious attack, as my drawer is at overflow level! I started by sorting all the strips by color. February is blue, so I gathered the blue strips, which is my most used color, and started sewing them end to end. 

I'm making jelly roll race baby quilts for Bundles of Love, a local charity that delivers bundles of newborn items to families in need. They request baby quilts to be 35" to 40" wide and 40" to 50" long. I shoot for the largest size, 40" x 50", knowing they will shrink a bit with quilting and washing.
