Scrappy Saturday

Yippee it's pink month! I love pink and was so happy to put away the January blues, and get out some pink scraps. 


First I made some blocks for my Sewcialites project starting with block #11 called Nurture (by Lissa Alexander) - perfect to sew in pink! I fussy cut my feature/border fabric in the centre.




Next up was block #12 called Captivate (by Barbara Groves). This one looks easy, but only if you follow the instructions! On my first try I sewed the HST blocks too small for some unknown reason?


Then I followed the instructions and it all worked out perfectly!

I will continue working on the these blocks in March. One block pattern is posted each week until April. I will be a bit behind and stretch out my enjoyment, sewing 2 blocks each month according to the colours at the Rainbow Scrap challenge.


Here are my 12 Sewcialites blocks on the design wall. I love sewing a sampler quilt in rainbow colours!

  3. Your sampler blocks are beautiful. I added them to my 3 inch block list and I am having so much fun! Everything tiny is always so much cuter.
