For the month of December the RSC'ers are trying to finish up some scrap quilts worked on over the year. This week I tackled my collection of Carrie Nation blocks. I decided that I like the on-point layout best. The chains look a little wobbly in this picture, but once the blocks are sewn together, they will (hopefully) be straight.I also really liked the layout that Katie used for her Carrie Nation blocks - you can see her layout here.
I decided that this quilt really needs some orange and maybe some pink blocks, plus a few more green ones.
So I pulled out those scrap bins and that's what I'll be doing today - cutting scraps to sew up the blocks needed to fill in the missing coloured blocks. And then this quilt could become a finished top by the end of the year!To see more scrappy quilt postings, hop over to Angela's link up.
Another finished quilt in the works. Love the on point layout! Hope you are able to get this one crossed off the list before the end of the year. What a fun quilt.
ReplyDeleteThose little squares do make some nice lines in the quilt. Have fun playing with your scraps.
ReplyDeleteI always like how an on-point setting changes the look of a block. Enjoy playing in your scraps.
ReplyDeleteOh wow. I was thinking I really liked the on point and then checked out Katies layout ad its hard to believe they are both the same block quilt.!
ReplyDeleteI like the on point...believe I voted for that way back!! Glad to see you getting another finished!
ReplyDeleteI really like this with the on point setting. Good luck getting a finished top for the end of the year!
ReplyDeleteI like them on point too--looks like a beaded curtain--very cool!
ReplyDeleteYour design wall looks so pretty! Another gorgeous quilt in the making!!
ReplyDeleteOn point is always such a fun option! Love these blocks - they will make a fun quilt :)
ReplyDeleteLove it! What have you planned for the setting triangles around the outside?
ReplyDeleteDefinitively needs more green. It looks good Kathy.
ReplyDeleteIt's hard to believe you and Katie have used the same block. They are both gorgeous. What a fun block.
ReplyDeleteOoh, I love this option too! I may have to may another...
ReplyDeleteLove chains of squares! Have fun with the scraps--as usual :)
ReplyDeleteI really like the look of this quilt.
ReplyDeletethis is looking great and yes more green, with me there can never be too much green
ReplyDeleteLove the on point layout. Like beads on a string. I think your instincts for additional colour are bang on.
ReplyDeleteGreat quilt. Yes a few more green blocks.
ReplyDeleteKathy I think this is wonderful! I love the way you've created a rainbow :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Rainbow Scrap quilt and I do like them placed on point.
