Feeling Blue But Not Looking Pale

This month's color for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge is pale, light, pastel, baby blue. Since I don't have many scraps of the pale blue variety I just dug into my 1/2 inch blue scraps and started sewing. I added 12 more 3.5 spools to my collection...

And I added another blue 49 patch. Don't ask me why 49 and not 8 or 64 or some even number.  That's just the way it is.  And, yes, I sew each little square together separately.  I even participate in postage stamp swaps and trade these little things, believe it or not.  (I think the fish is too much orange and maybe he will come out of there and swim on over into an orange block). 




And, I used some 1.5 inch blue scraps as star points on my Sister's Choice blocks. I think I only have 49 more needed to make my count of 288!!!!!   All of the points on the blocks are blue. Blocks are 5 inches. 



And I used some 2.5 inch blue scraps to finish off the amount of blue Twinkler blocks I need for a Quilt of Valor quilt. I still need to finish about 20 red blocks. 

Visit the Scrap Happy Saturday linky party at SoScrappy to see a bunch of awesome blue scrappy projects.
