RSC25 - Week #9

This project actually meets 2 month's worth of color challenges - blue and yellow. And it was on my UFO list for 2025, which is a bonus!


Last weekend, I pulled out the pattern and fabrics I had gathered about 2 years ago for this Hummingbird project, and decided it was time.  Well, this one really only took a couple of days to put together once I finished the cutting.  Using a panel and all big pieces makes for a quick project.  This was fun!

EDIT:  I've added a link to the free pattern download for this quilt. It's called Chillingsworth Bicycle Race, by Andover Fabrics.

All 8 of the coin purses that were cut out last weekend are now finished.  These all use scraps and leftover charm squares. 


The red/white/blue blocks for the Quilt of Valor are all made too.  Maybe I'll even get a couple of rows sewn together tomorrow.  Today will be too busy with other activities.


It was time for some string piecing as Leaders/Enders this week.  Two of the 9.5" string blocks happened in yellow for March.  Ironically the yellow scrap bin is my least full one. 
 

And a couple more blue String Triangles were added to the small stack I already had.  There is a plan for these, involving vertical columns.  They utilize the Tri Recs rulers so are very easy to make out of the smaller scraps.  

But I'm linking up with the Rainbow Scrap Challenge . . .
