Scrap Happy Saturday ~ Orange Month

Scrap Happy Orange Month.

I love orange! 

Planned, not scrappy ... and not orange,

but I already made this block this week.

I started a second quilt Here 

with these wonderful fabrics, 

 Kindred Spirits by Riley Blake Designs

for the

Canadian Quilter's 52 Blocks in 52 Weeks

I am still sewing the scrappy quilt, too,

as I love the scraps with the gray dot fabric.

On Saturdays I like to sew scrappy and see all the wonderful inspiration at the

Rainbow Scrap Challenge @ So Scrappy

 More scrappy orange blocks in the making.

Orange you scrappy happy, too? 

:-) 

Saturday is Scrappy Happy Day

This is my take of Block 15 for the

Canadian Quilter's 52 Blocks in 52 Weeks

Blocks may also be found and posted

Although aqua month at the 

Rainbow Scrap Challenge @ So Scrappy

is coming to a close,

my scrap stash of aqua fabric is low.

Sew I did some retail therapy at my local quilt shop this week

and came home with this nifty stack of aqua fat quarters.

It was fun to search their shelves looking for aqua.

The third fabric up from the bottom is my idea of a true aqua.

Maestro was showing the aqua fabric love.

Looking forward to a new month of fabric color adventures.

The hubs and I are going to a nearby quilt guild show, the

Hannah Dustin Quilt Guild Show

This guild always has a nice show of quilts.

If you are in the area tomorrow, 

it is well worth a stop and see.

Happy Scrappy Saturday!

Week 14  Block for

I am trying to get back to my routine in my new old sewing corner.

I have been spoiled by my sewing room, 

which will soon be my quilting room.

I am hoping that the routine will help me feel more settled into sewing.

I am sewing aqua scraps because it is "Aqua Month" at the 

Rainbow Scrap Challenge @ So Scrappy

Tomorrow is a family day and we will be gathering

at my younger son's home for his first Easter there.

We have many blessings to celebrate together.

Next week my new longarm may be coming home! 

May you and yours have a Happy Hoppy Weekend!

:-) 

April is Aqua Month

I love the aqua scraps with this polka dot background fabric.

April is Aqua Month

@

Scrap Happy Saturday @ So Scrappy

Aqua is one of my favorite colors.

So I pulled out some of my aqua scraps

and sewed this week's block for

Canadian Quilters 52 Blocks in 52 Weeks

Week 12 Free Pattern Here

Not scrappy, but the aqua background is the perfect shade

 in this focus fabric for

Bluebirds on Roses ~ Penny Rose for Riley Blake

This is one of my favorite new fabrics finds.

Pattern picked out.

I am sewing this weekend.

The white print is the background.

I am not sure the charm pack is in the quilt,

but I love charm packs.

Yes ... I am starting another new project.

I am quilt quazy.

I am also going out for breakfast with My Boys!

Be back later.

Have a happy scrappy quilty weekend!

Scraps and Cats Saturday

I am all caught up on my scrappy blocks for

52 Blocks 52 Weeks @ Canadian Quilters

I really liked Block 9  with its twists and turns.

Block 10 was an easy cross block.

The kitties love Saturdays because both of their favorite humans are home.

Katniss spent most of the morning enjoying her bath in the sunny south facing window.

Too windy and cool to open the window so the little sisters left her in peace and quiet.

Tomorrow we may get to 60 F degrees. 

Little sisters will be crowding her favorite napping spot.

Maestro just curled up near me on my pressing board by my machine

and napped there.

Nutmeg, who only sits still when she is sleeping,

helped me arrange this weeks

Trinket Blocks

My machine is still grumbling and making me take her apart

to remove a speck of dust every few stitches.

Tomorrow I am going to have to put her in her box for the trip to the spa.

It will be a slow stitching day tomorrow

for sure.

Hope I can get my challenge blocks done.

Time will tell.

Scraps 'n' Cats

Block 8 of 52 Blocks for 52 Weeks @ Canadian Quilters

It is a sunny scrappy Saturday in my Scrapatch. 

I love searching my scraps and such for the right pieces to these puzzles.

Maestro says "Yummy fabrics!"

Nutmeg says," How about these scraps over here?"

Some of those are for another scrappy project.

This is a sneak peek.

I am sew happy about this project,

I cannot wait to show more,

but it is for a blog hop 

later in the month.

I love playing with my scraps any day,

but my favorite scrappy day is

Scrappy Happy Saturday @ So Scrappy

Have a Happy Scrappy Day!

Time for the Sewing of the Green

These scrap squares have been accumulating for some time,
as leaders and enders,
and when I just feel like playing with my scraps.

This little scrap basket jumped off the shelf when I  saw a quilt
made with this pattern online on Saturday ...

Rainbow Rows Quilt Pattern

I immediately sought out and purchased the pattern.

I could figure this one out without the pattern,
but I try to always give credit to the designer.

So I will not be showing and telling details of this block.

Only that I am not really following the letter of the pattern.
If it is a usable scrap, it will not be left behind.

I happily had six blocks sewed up quickly.

Green rows today because it is the sewing of the green month @

Rainbow Scrap Challenge Scrappy Saturday

Happy Scrappy!

Catching Up With Scrappy Saturday

I made four easy 6.5" scrap blocks 

and I am all caught up with the

Canadian Quilters' 52 Blocks in 52 Weeks

Here is Week # 5 ~ Melissa's World

Since it is Saturday, 

I will be sipping my morning coffee while enjoying all the scrappy goodness at

RSC2019 @ SoScrappy

Have a Happy Scrappy Day!

Maze ~ 6.5" Block

I am sewing along with the

Canadian Quilters' 52 Blocks in 52 Weeks

Blocks may be found and posted
 Here on their Facebook Site

Because these are 6.5" unfinished blocks,

the cutting calls for very small pieces.

So this is a perfect scrap project! 

This block used up scraps that were 1.5" strips.

For this quilt, Nutmeg and I have decided to use the

dotty fabric that has been in our stash for years,

bought on sale one time when "everything dots"
was 40% off at our local quilt shop. 

These are the colors in this fabric,

although I will use all colored scraps for my blocks.

I need to make the first three weeks' blocks to catch up.

I hope to so that later tonight,

On Saturdays I like to play with my scraps 

with the lovely quilters at

Rainbow Scrap Challenge @ So Scrappy

where it is yellow month.

So used us some of my small yellow scraps for

#52blocks52weeks

Hope to see you sewing along!
