After playing with October RSC scrappy colors I'll add some blocks to my collections.
To see what others made this week, go here.
It's that time of year when I start sewing my accumulated RSC blocks into quilts. I had nineteen colorful 36-patch blocks made with 2" squares completed and needed one more block for a 4x5 block layout. After making a very colorful 36-patch block for block number 20, I sashed all my blocks with 2" strips and colorful 2" square cornerstone blocks. For a framed look, I added some borders. A red and white strip print binding set it off nicely. It's quilted with a loose free motion meander. After a go in the washer and dryer it finished at 49" x 61".
My quilt guild buddy, Laura, gave me a panel to quilt up for donation. Panels make such sweet baby quilts! To give this panel some extra width, I added 3" colorful strips to two sides. It finished at about 41" square. I'll donate it at our October guild meeting. Thank you, Laura.

I think I Spy block number 20. It's my favorite!
Your 36 patch blocks finished up beautifully. The green and blue borders frame those blocks nicely. Congrats on a fun scrappy finish.

I love how you are able to finish off your RSC blocks into quilts. With 2 months for it this year I hope to have a few finishes. As always - your colors quilts are so fun to see. They always make me smile.
Your 36 patch quilt is just beautiful! It was fun to zoom in and look at all the different fabrics you used to make them.

Congratulations on your lovely finish! It looks great!
I just love 16- and 36-patches! Your 36er looks fantastic :)
And aren't those baby panels just so fun and easy? Great FMQ practice pieces, too. Just stitch around the (usually) simple design. That construction vehicles one is so darling.
Great RSC quilt finish! And the panel is just cute - have not seen that one. They are quick and fun and useful.
That RAINBOW blocks really added a bit of whimsy to the quilt. Congrats! on your RSC finish.
Your 36 patch quilt is beautiful! I'm working on a 1.5" postage stamp and really like how you've set your quilt with sashing. Maybe I should think about doing that with mine.
Very cheerful orange and yellow blocks. I really love your 36 patch quilt. I need to add this quilt to my someday list. I have lots of 2" squares. Thanks for the inspiration.
two beautiful quilts!
Your quilt turned out so lovely with the sashing and blocks. It is so bright and cheerful. Congrats on a fine finish.
I knew you would make that baby panel into a beautiful baby quilt!!! Some baby will be warm this winter :) Your 36 patch blocks quilt is gorgeous! I love the rainbow block addition, a nice way to bring it all together. Love your sunshiny yellow blocks for the month too. You've been busy!!
You have two wonderful finished quilts. I really love your 36-patch quilt! It's bright and colourful.
Your super-scrappy (yet controlled!) RSC blocks are just great! I'm working on additional blocks in the monthly colorways, too.
What a beautiful finish on your RSC quilt! :)
