Scrappy Saturday


It's the last week for sewing orange scraps over at the Rainbow Scrap Challenge and a new colour will be announced this week. So I had to get my August Squared Away sampler blocks finished up. This block is a 1935 pattern called "State of Georgia" and the instructions can be found here.


I will add these four blocks to my other 28 blocks. Here they are on the design wall. 
Such a fun project!





And while I had the orange scraps out, I just had to try a mini version of Anita's Arrowhead pattern (see my post about the 9" blocks here). This is the 3.5" version... so darn cute! I think I just started a new RSC project that will take me another 10 years to finish! UGH and YAH!
To see more RSC projects, hop over to the weekly linkup.

Just got caught up on your posts, Kathy. What a lovely array of various blocks. I too lose things in my sewing room...didn't know that happened to the pros, LOL.

Such a pretty set of blocks in all the colors!

I love seeing all your Squared Away blocks together! This is going to be a great quilt. It would take me 10 years or so to make enough 3-1/2 inch blocks for a quilt, too!

Looking good Kathy! You are involved in so many projects! Glad you posted - I thought there would be another week to get my blocks done! I am drowning in interruptions and York Lodge - might get mine done tomorrow morning in time to post! We will see!

Your Squared Away Sampler blocks look great!

Kate said...

Your orange Squared Away blocks look great, the whole set looks so bright and fun. Love you small Arrowhead block. At least the small blocks use up lots of tiny scraps.

Jayne said...

Love your Squared Away Blocks and love the visual of all the blocks together! Can't wait to see next months color!

I like all these lovely warm colors.

I really like how each month’s color is in a different block pattern. How clever! Don’t be surprised if I borrow your idea one day.
