I found this little Sunbonnet Sue block made of postage stamp sized squares (1.5 inches) at the Q is for Quilter blog so thought I would try it with some of my brown scraps I still had sitting out from November's Rainbow Scrap Challenge. I think I will make a girl from scraps of every color as part of the Rainbow Scrap Challenge 2014. I am rolling over a lot of projects to next year that I started this year with RSC 2013. Early in the year I used a lot of crumbs each month that turned into some cute donation quilts.
I finished a few more 49 patch postage stamp blocks to add to my collection. I only have one low volume patch and I was thinking a bunch of those blocks with some lacy old doilies and such appliqued on top would be pretty so I may try that next.
These postage stamp blocks are really nice. I have been making these blocks as my "leader, ender" pieces. They just seem to multiply!
ReplyDeleteThe SBS is darling. I'm finishing up a king-sized postage stamp quilt. Can't wait to cross this one off my bucket list.
ReplyDeleteI really like the red block
ReplyDeleteSuch a cute block... that would be fun to work on each month!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea for next year!
ReplyDeleteThat's a good idea for next year's rainbow scrap challenge. Next year I'm going to make more blocks to add to the blocks I made this year.
ReplyDeleteWhat an adorable Sunbonnet Sue blocks. I might need to make them need year too. Thanks for the inspiration.
ReplyDeleteWhat is a low volume patch?
ReplyDeleteLove the postage stamp blocks.
It's so fun to see another quilter make one of the vintage patterns I've posted. Your Sunbonnet block is so cute, and I can't wait to see her made in your other scraps.
ReplyDeleteThanks for leaving a comment on my SBS post -- now I'll be able to keep up with your quilting adventures.
Love your 49ers! Are they made with every square different? You must have an amazing stash!
