RSC26 - Week 12

Red is one of favorite colors, so it was definitely fun sewing this week again.


The "catnip" block with red kitties was a priority this week.  Every time I look at these blocks I just have to smile. So cute and whimsical. 


Give It a Whirl blocks are adding up.  With the addition of these 2 red ones there are 36.  Because they are only 8" finished, I'll need a few more yet to make a decent size quilt.


Hollow-9 blocks are adding up too.  I was digging deep in the 2.5" square bin to find red.  Last year I used up a ton of red squares in the strawberry blocks.


There was plenty of red sewing NOT part of RSC was for another Quilt of Valor.  The stars and the 4-patch blocks are 8" finished.  There are still 4 star blocks and the remaining 4-patch blocks in both red/white and blue/white on the design board waiting to be sewn.  I can't wait to lay this one out.   
 

A RSC quilt from a previous year is now checked off the UFO list.  This is Triple Triangles, made with string triangle blocks.  

Let's go check out more Rainbow fun . . .

That's a great cat block -- I like the little 'notch' at the neck to make them somewhat more realistic. Happy Worldwide Quilting Day!

The red kitties are adorable. But I’m really bowled over by the triple triangles quilt. What a great use of scraps and fabulous with the darker alternate fabrics!!

Your catnip blocks are lovely, there will be cats of every colour in your quilt. Congratulations on another RSC finish, it's good to get them ticked off the list.
