Rainbow Scrap Challenge - Pink

The colour of the month for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge is PINK. The block I picked to make each month is called "Knot MY Block" and the pattern is from the Quiltmaker 100 blocks magazine volume #3. There is a total of 69 pieces in the 12" block, and the best part is that it uses up 56 little 1.5" scraps of one colour! 
I am really happy with how my pink block turned out. It has more variation in the value of the colour than the red or green blocks did.
To see what other scrappy quilters are sewing today, hop over to the Pink Party.

This block is really neat! I love how your colors move from light to dark.
The blue and green quilt in your header is really pretty, too. Must go look at it again.

Great color arrangement. I'm also working with 1.5" squares this year - are we completely crazy??

Kathy I'm loving this block. Each time you post it I think to myself that I should make this. Could you post all your knot blocks together? I'd love to see them side by side.

I've loved the blocks in each color, but I admit that this pink one does have more personality. Just beautiful the way you have shaded it.

Ellen said...

Kathy, I LOVE the blue/green quilt in your blog masthead and when I try to PIN it to Pinterest it isn't available to pin...sigh...so inspiring, I would love to be able to in it. I'm in love with the pattern you used and the colors...of course I would make it "my own" but what an inspiration quilt!!!
