Purple Haze

The Rainbow Scrap Challenge color of the month is PURPLE. 
I started my work with the 2 inch width scrap bin.  I didn't have many purple scraps in there so I cut a 2 inch strip for my Single Wedding Ring blocks from purple scrap chunks.  The blocks finish at 7.5 inches. 
 But these Sixteen Patch blocks all came from the 2 inch scrap bin that I am trying to empty. I think these blocks have been a RSC project for a couple of years so I'm hoping to have 120 of them by year end.  I believe I only have 41 more blocks to go. 

Purple haze, all in my brain
Lately things don't seem the same...

    Pretty purple blocks. I have so much fun searching your fabrics to see if I have any matching in my sewing room... not a single one this week. I think I need to go shopping =)

    Beautiful PURPLE blocks! I really like the Single Wedding Ring blocks. Lots of cute fabrics in your 16-patches too. Perfect sign-off. Thanks for the chuckle!

    Do you start a series of blocks with a quilt layout in mind and therefore an idea of how many blocks you'll make? Or do you make a stack, lay them out, and decide to add, or not add? [Thinking about the SWR purples in this case.]

    Lots of lovely purples. I love how purples can range from pale lavender, almost pink, to dark dark nearly brown eggplant. I’m normally a fan of purple, and you have some fabulous ones!

    Lots of pretty purples, isn't it fun to see what you can find in those scrap bins tucked away and forgotten.

    I liked the Hendrix reference too, but not as much as I like your yummy purple blocks. You sure have some great scraps!
