In the Pink!

Wishing Rings that finish at 3.5 inches. 
(Blocks are also called Church Window Hexagon Variation, Buttons, Doughnuts) 

Cut and weed. Sew and weed. Cut and weed. Sew and weed. And repeat. 

 This week in between garden weeding I dug into my pink scraps and managed to complete most but not all of my Rainbow Scrap Challenge blocks. 
 Four inch Double X Variation and Snowballs inspired by a vintage quilt. 
 Wedding Rings that finish at 7.5 inches. 
(Also called Single Wedding Ring, Odd Scraps Patchwork and Crown of Thorns). 
 Six inch Sixteen Patches. 
 HRTs (2 x 4)
 3 inch Rails. 
 A couple of six inch Broken Dishes and a 12 inch 16-Patch Star. 


And a bunch of eight inch Garlic Knots (aka Arrowhead Puzzle).

I am loving pink more and more as time goes by. I never used to like it much but now I can't get enough, and use it a lot in quilts and other misc. items. I would really love to play in your scraps!

So much pink cheeriness. You have a great stash of pinks and have done wonderful work with this color.

Lots of great pink inspiration here. I noticed a theme (besides pink) in the form of rings. Wishing rings, wedding rings, even the HRT has a wedding ring!

Great piecing in pink! Especially the Wedding Ring blocks.
Congratulations on your Carolina Chain finish.
I'm taking a slow relaxed July focusing on red and blue. I'll add white and make it patriotic.

I want to thank you for the inspiration you have endowed on all of us that read your blog and the quilts that inspire us to do more and give more.

Pink is always lovely. What fun you're having this summer.

Cathy said...

Wow, you got a lot of sewing done in between all the weeding, hehe! My favorites are still the Crown of Thorns blocks, but the rails and wishing rings are right up there too. Do you ever sleep?

Carol E. said...

Wow! You made so many! They're all beautiful. And some are tiny! I do not have what it takes to keep making tiny ones.

You've done a lot (lots of variety) with those exuberant pinks!

Wow, if you got as much weeding done as sewing, your garden must look spectacular! And what a fun group of blocks!
