2015 Rainbow Scrap Challenge January, Blue, Week 1


It's a new Rainbow Scrap Challenge Year and we are playing with blue scraps this month.  After playing with my blue scraps this week I'll add the three 8.5" blocks in the first row to my collection. I had a dozen blocks left from the end of last year's challenge. I need 48 blocks to make a lap quilt. The two blocks in the second row were made from blue crumb scraps. Those blocks will become the front and back of a pot holder/hot pad. I have lots of crumb scraps to turn into fabric this year.
To see what others did with their blue scraps, go here.

I am forever mesmerized by folks and their crumb blocks. At what point does anything not make it into a quilt? Your crumb trivets are a wonderful collection of blues.

Terri said...

A new blue and old to mix with it? Will all the blocks be crumb style for the lap quilt? I like the idea.
Will you be making any kitty blocks. I really enjoyed seeing them.
Hugs

What a great start to the 2015 RSC! Isn't it fun making the crumb fabric. You never know how you'll finish up.

Oh, another lot of scrappy goodness! I used a lot of my crumbs last year and still need some for a crumb border. Never thought of potholders made from them!

I love your blocks. Those small pieces make pretty and those little bits of bright yellow peeking out of a few scraps is happy!

Nice start with your blue scraps! I tried to link up with Angela to share my blue scrap blocks like you did, but had trouble doing so. :o((

Terri said...

Congrats on your Book It win. Atta Girl!
