After playing with purple this week, l have nine 6.5" purple butterfly blocks for my column quilt. The 2" HSTs are extras from making the butterflies' wings. A purple Boxy Block made it into the picture. The pattern for this block is on Bonnie Hunter's website. To see what others made with purple, go here Saturday morning.
I'm participating in Sarah's Nifty Nines Sew Along. I'll add these scrappy 9-patch blocks to my collection.
It's H2H time. Hands 2 Help. I'm making 16-patches blocks each month for a Sweet Sixteen charity quilt. I'll add these to my collection.
Making doll quilts has become addictive. This one finished at 19.5" square. I'll donate it to sell in our annual Quilt Show's Boutique.

Love your butterflies and boxy star - great purple play. You have some great juvenile scraps - sweet patch work.
You've been really busy with your PURPLE scraps. Nice work!!
Isn't it funny that the bonus HSTs are my favorite part of all of your projects? So pretty!
Oh look at all those pretty purples!!!
lots of color here
So wonderful and scrappy. And I love the turquoise border on the doll quilt.
Your butterflies are just beautiful! So happy! I’ve sewn together my bonus HSTs too, but haven’t pressed or squared them. Just threw them in the HST box..... you are so disciplined!!
Nice projects going on. I love purple scraps!
The purple boxy stars look great. I really had to look because the contrast between the light and the background is so subtle.
You're very good saving your "bonus" HST's - all your purples are lovely!
Good job on the butterflies. Love the doll quilt, so colorful. Keep up the good work!
Wow! What a lot you accomplished this week. Your purple blocks are great and I love your scrap squares blocks.
So fun to see all your purple projects! The Boxy Stars look like such a fun block.
It's always a pleasure to visit! And good for you for using up those waste triangles!
Love everything on your design wall! Prettiest Boxy Stars I have seen! Usually this block is too scrappy for me, but yours is a controlled scrappy and is perfect to me!
What purple goodness you have going on here. Lovely.
Lovely work, Sheila - as always! I always enjoy seeing what you've been sewing.
Lots of pretty scrappy projects underway in your sewing room. I love your butterfly blocks, the turned out beautifully, as did your boxy star.
