RSC23 - Week #2

 Hmmm . . . not a lot of blue sewing happened this week other than this wintery runner, in 2 sizes.  This one has 3 blocks (each 12"), with sashing and borders.  The other version has the blocks done in half that size, but more of them.  I'm still working on those smaller blocks.  The second runner needs to fit on a buffet that is only 1 foot wide, but 5 feet long.  I made the bigger sized one for myself, and as a "test" to make sure I like the colors before making the one that was requested by someone else. The colors are much prettier, and very "icy" looking in real life rather than the grey light coming in the windows.

Plenty of sewing time did happen the first half of the week, and much of it was scrappy.  Just not necessarily blue scrappy.  


I did assemble a couple more rows on the Scrappy Irish Chain quilt.  This is an RSC project started in 2022 that is continuing in 2023.  I wanted to get a better idea of how these would all look together, and I'm pleased with it so far.  By the end of 2023 with a better range of colors added, I think this will be a really good scrappy quilt. 

How is RSC going for you in 2023?

  9. I am firm believer in stretching challenge rules. I spy some dark blue in that Scrappy Irish Chain. So between the table runners and the quilt, I would say you met the challenge.
