RSC25 - Week #35

I'm always tickled when the last stitch is done on the binding of a finish. This is Buckeye Beauty, and I love how it turned out.  The black and white prints in the 4-patches allow those bright colors to pop.  Definitely one of my favorite RSC projects, and a pattern that I'll do again sometime in the future.

These blocks are not aqua - but they are for a Rainbow Scrap Challenge project.  I began making these 4-Patch Fun blocks with aqua, and now I've gone back to make a few in the previous colors for this year.  This week light blue and orange came out to play but just for these blocks.   

I've added a few more string blocks to the stack.  These all finish at 6" and are sewn on old phone book pages.  I had made the top 2 light aqua early in August.  Then I added the darker teal ones.  This week I added another light aqua block, and also the blue and green ones -  because those strings were in that same bin by mistake.  

Another set of Rainbow Scrap Challenge blocks has nearly become a quilt top.  Yay!! I'm calling this Triple Triangles.

This one began as triangular string blocks, using the Tri Recs rulers.  The original plan was going to be long columns of the triangles with columns of something colorful in between.  But then I saw something online with sets of 3 - and a whole new plan came to me. The sashing strips are a medium blue, almost a turquoise hue.  

As it is (with the blue sashing) this is about 47 x 54.  But since the sets of 3 triangles have a black/white frame, I'm thinking I might add a wide black/white outer border to make it larger.  Or I might leave it as is.  We'll see how it goes.

Let's see what else is happening in the RSC world . . .
