Pink


Broken Wheels in pink. 
I'm in two different Birthday Clubs and Broken Wheels is my block of choice - maker's colors of choice on a neutral background.  If I also make 2 blocks each month in RSC colors I should have enough blocks for a large quilt by year end. 


36 Little Lozenges (Bitter Pills)
These finish at 2 x 4.5


I've been making them since last year and finally decided to take count.  I have 4 piles of 100 (50 with black corners and 50 with white corners)  and one pile of 80 and a few extras to boot.  I think that should be enough for a 50 x 70 quilt (if I calculated correctly  for a layout 25 x 18). 

In case you haven't seen it...I finished my Wild Little Monkey quilt - one of last year's RSC projects. 

Got Scraps?
Make something.  Then show us what you've done with them each ScrapHappy Saturday.

  1. Very nice and great use of those pinks. I don't have much pink left after using so much this month. I didn't have much to start with though. And I'm surprised yellow is the color. I'm going to have to dig deep for yellow pieces.

  5. You have really been industrious--I just cannot get into the swing of things this year; I think all this snow has gotten to me (and more expected tonight-through tomorrow!! ugh!!) anyway...your pinks are lovely. I pulled my scanty supply of yellows--all older fabric pieces and am not happy with them--but will press on (hahaha) and see what pops out. I may have to pair them with blue and/or pinks...I think I'm ion the doldrums...hugs, Julierose
