In The Pink

Pink is the Rainbow Scrap Challenge (RSC) color for April.  Most of my pink scraps are larger pieces - most between 4.5 and 5 inches in width so I decided to pair the pinks up with some gray scraps and then see how many Four Patches of four inch (finished) HSTs I could make. 

I was thinking I might have enough blocks for a twin sized donation quilt - maybe 63 eight inch (finished) blocks set 7 x 9 ?????


So far I have 38 blocks and still have scraps so I may be able to stretch those scraps to meet my goal of 63 blocks. Some blocks may not contain four HSTs all the same. 

When I am finished with these blocks I will then probably have smaller pink scraps to make some of my smaller RSC blocks in pink.

  9. I have been working with pinks the last couple of days making some baby quilts. Pulling from my collection of 5" cut scraps and some yardage. I will make it work.

  11. Here in the UK I think pink and grey were popular colours for decorating in the 1950s.
