Aqua came out to play this week, with 2.5" squares being used in Paint Chip and Hollow 9-Patch blocks. So far these are in the lighter "sea glass" shades, but I'm sure I can find deeper teals for next week.
I've been doing these 4-Patch Fun blocks in red/white/blue to use in a future Quilt of Valor. This is a 6" (finished) Bonnie Hunter leader/ender pattern, and they add up quickly when used as leaders and enders. This week I decided to make some in RSC colors as well. These 4 aqua versions are the first ones so far.
Two aqua string blocks happened too. These also finish at 6", and are pieced on phone book pages. I haven't removed the paper yet.
The only bigger project with aqua that I've worked on this week is the Town Square 3-yard quilt with the cute whale print. The colors are way off in this photo - it's navy and turquoise surrounding the whales in the squares. All 12 blocks are done, but only half of them are sewn into rows. Finishing this to the flimsy stage will be a goal for next week.
Let's see what else is going on in the RSC world this week.

Those blocks all worked up nicely.
As with all the RSC choices, it's amazing the range that each color contains. (Awkward phrasing but you get the idea.) Hope you have a nice weekend!
