Purple 2.5 Inch Scrap Edition


This week I dug into my 2.5 inch width scrap bin and dug out my purples. 
I made five 8" (finished) Dakota Farmer Stars. 

And I made six 6" (finished) Hourglass blocks.  I won over 20 of these in a Block Lotto so decided to make enough blocks for a twin sized donation quilt. I think I will set these on point and then you might see why they are called Hourglass. 

Looking forward to a new Rainbow Scrap Challenge (RSC) color for September. Will it be red or yellow?

Those hourglass blocks are going to look so neat in a quilt. I too am wondering what color will be selected for September =)

You did good with those purples. They look scrumptious!

I absolutely adore those stars!
And I admit I've been puzzled over why those other blocks are called hourglasses. I'll try tilting my head when I look at them. :)

I'm a bit worried that Angela will come up with yet another shade of blue or green for September's color. Wouldn't that just be so totally 2020?
