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!

Pretty PINK progress. Kathy!! (And I just noticed your lovely new profile picture. SEW pretty!)
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.
Using your Sewcialites 2 blocks for RSC is a great idea!
Some pink is just what your sampler quilt needed! Those are great blocks!
The pink blocks are a great addition . So many fun and fabulous blocks. The butterfly block tugs at my heart. Happy quilting, Kathy
I like that background fabric for the #12 block.
