This month's Rainbow Scrap Challenge color is red so this week I dug into the 2.5 inch red scraps to make four 10 inch Crazy Lady of the Lake blocks. After making these for a couple of years I'm getting close to enough blocks for a large quilt.
I've also been making eight inch Depression Blocks and those Sprouts for a couple of years. Not sure if I'm close to enough blocks for big quilts now or not. Maybe I have enough sprouts since I'm not sure how I'm going to use them! And that little strip at the bottom? I've been sewing all the little 2.5 inch scrap ends less than a 2 inch square into strips. Not sure how I'm going to use those either but I will.
I especially like the Depression blocks, but it will be fun to see all of the blocks come together in various quilt designs!
ReplyDeleteI really like the Crazy Lady blocks with the yellow or purple accents! Fun!
ReplyDeleteLovely blocks. I love how you methodically work your way through your scraps - this week it's the 2.5" strips turn.
ReplyDeleteLove those Crazy Lady blocks--you are so organized and creative...hugs, Julierose
ReplyDeleteI like all your blocks shown here and you are so creatively organized. The sprouts have caught my eye to remember. So many ideas. I have to start using my time more wisely with my piecing. Always enjoy your posts.
ReplyDeleteYummy blocks! I love them all ;)
ReplyDeleteI think I have to add depression blocks to my make list. Thanks for the inspiration ;)
ReplyDeleteLove the depression blocks... and that little strip could be a cute coloring crayon =)
ReplyDeleteLots of different blocks use HST's!
ReplyDeleteNice work going on here, I'm hoping some of your organizing abilities will
rub off on me.
I am so crazy about those crazy ladies!
ReplyDeleteYummy, yummy reds! I like the ways your using them.

ReplyDeleteThis month's Crazy Ladies look amazing! I can't wait to see the entire wild and crazy quilt when you put it together!
ReplyDeleteLove the Crazy Lady of the Lake - and the name of the quilt. Fabulous fabrics and scraps as always! Your blog posts never disappoint my love of fabric combinations.
ReplyDeleteI've been keeping an eye on your sprouts blocks. I'll be interested to see how they go in a quilt! You are a prolific scrap user!
