2013 Rainbow Scrap Challenge, August, Red, Week 4

After another week of playing with red scraps, I'll add two 8.5" blocks and two guy friendly pot holders to my collections. A knitted dishcloth made it into the picture. Unfortunately I misplaced the label, but I love this yarn.
To see what others made with their red scraps, go here Saturday morning. We have one more week to play with red scraps. I love red and was glad Angela chose a 5 Saturday month for this color.

There is barn number 10 in Lori's Bee In My Bonnet "Quilty Barn Along". Two barns left to piece. My California friend, Terri, sent me some cat fabric to use when piecing the barns. I think barns 10, 11, 12 will be full of barn cats : )

    Are those kitties on the end of the barn? Love it!
    (I remember my grandpa squirting milk at the kitties while he was milking. He did have milking machines, but some of the older cows still didn't trust them, so he milked them by hand.)

    I look forward each week to seeing what colored block collections you come up with. It is impressive that you manage to keep finding such a variety of projects.

    The men around here would love the man friendly pot holders, what a great idea. I'm glad there's another Saturday, I need to catch up.

    The barn looks great. I think kitties in your barns will be perfect. The Star Wars potholders are definitely guy friendly. My son would love them.

    Love the barn cats..... especially since I got mine from a barn. Had to grab Sophie quickly before a cow stepped on her. She was tiny once! Your red blocks are great. I need to find my needles... I got a little yarn from walmart for a dish cloth. Less $ but it feels like a lot less yarn.....
