Bee In My Bonnet Row Along Quilt Top

The Bee In My Bonnet Row Along Mystery Quilt outer border clue was for a pieced border. I searched my stash for green fabrics and found three pieces that blended. I opted for a solid outer border of a green print on the left side border, another green print for the right side outer border and a green strip print for the upper and lower outer borders. It felt good to continue pulling fabrics for my quilt from scraps and stash.
This quilt top is 86.5"x 68.5", twin size.

Bee In My Bonnet Row Along With Two Skinny Borders

The first border clue for this mystery row along quilt was to add two skinny borders. Lori will post another border clue tomorrow.

Quilty Barn Along, Barn Number 2

This is barn number 2 in the "Quilty Barn Along". Lori Holt at Bee In My Bonnet is hosting this challenge. The upper left corner of the barn door had a little run in with my scissors. Oops. There was a little repair work done there. Oh well.
I'm also participating in Lori's "Row Along Mystery Quilt Challenge", too. Her button is on the side of my blog.

Bee In My Bonnet Row Along, 13 Rows

All 13 rows of the row along mystery quilt are now together. Wow. Looking awesome! I love it. Lori tells us to expect a border clue Wednesday :D

2013 Rainbow Scrap Challenge, March Orange Week 3

It's been a slow week. I made two 8.5" blocks and a crumb pot holder. Another knitted dishcloth found its way into the picture. Loved the yarn I used, a variegated lime green cotton yarn. I knitted two dishcloths this week but gave the other away. It was made using a pale blue, white, yellow and green variegated cotton yarn. Knitting is addictive. I like to knit.

2013 Rainbow Scrap Challenge, March, Orange, Week 2 and a 2012 RSC Quilt Finish

This 2012 RSC quilt is no longer a UFO. It's quilted with wavy horizontal lines. After a go in the washer and dryer, it finished at 62.5" x 81.5".
I like this quilt a lot : )

 

The colorful backing was pieced from my stash. It was time for some of those fabrics to go.

 

This is the second week that I have played with orange scraps. Four more 8.5" blocks and a happy scrappy house pieced using the pattern found on Bonnie Hunter's Quiltville website. These little houses are fun to make with scraps. The square in a square in a star was a new block for me.
I cut 10 more 5" tumblers and several 2.5" squares.
A couple knitted dishcloths, green and orange, found their way into the picture. Love that yummy orange one. I like to knit and watch tv at night. And eat popcorn.
To see what other's made with their orange scraps this week, go here Saturday morning.
