Scrappy Saturday - Moving on to baby blues
It's a slow start to the day following Friday Night Sew-In!
What can I say??
FNSI is exhausting (in a good way)!
Some progress was actually made on the scrappy spools. Here is my collection after three months (yellow, aqua, and red) of spool construction....about 120 blocks. It's looking good if I do say so myself!
I have made a few baby blue blocks, but there won't be many of those in my spool collection. I'm not a big fan of pastels except for baby quilts, and I haven't made many of those recently.
I also tried to work on my cocoa cup blocks for my Deckade the Halls quilt. Progress on these blocks was impeded by trying a new recipe for rhubarb slush (click here for recipe). Let's just say I love it and we'll leave it at that!
If I work really hard over the weekend, and stay away from the rhubarb slushies, I might be able to post all my completed blocks for my design wall post on Monday.
To see more rainbow challenge blocks, hop over to SoScrappy and check out the links.
