One final dip into purple - 2 Friendship Star blocks. Because I've finished up a couple of the RSC block sets now, it was time to choose a new block to add to the monthly mix. I have a couple of other block ideas going forward, so we'll see what August brings for RSC plans.
And then 2 more Friendship Stars with aqua and teal joined in. These are 9" finished blocks. But the more I keep looking at them, I feel that those star points are spinning backwards. Are they backwards? Should I take them apart and reverse those star points? With only 4 blocks it wouldn't take long to fix. Or should I just keep making them all this way?
I did make 2 aqua Give It a Whirl blocks on Thursday, but need 1 more. I've been doing 3 each month with the RSC color. These both lean toward the aqua, so maybe I'll look for pieces more on the teal side of the color. That would give me 24 blocks so far, enough for a baby quilt. Or I could just keep making lots more for a bigger quilt.
The scrappy bowtie placemat is all done too. Yay! My donation stack of placemats for Meals On Wheels is growing.
This UFO will be one of my aqua projects for August. The gingerbread people blocks were begun years ago, and it's time to do something with them.
One more new project using aqua is on the list for August. These fabrics will make a cute 3-yard child's quilt. I haven't decided yet what pattern I'll use. The whale print and the aqua have been in the stash for a couple of years. I picked up the dark blue this week to "get ur done" finally.
Let's see what else is going on in the RSC world this week.
