Red Scraps Chapter IV

Twilight Flock

This week I worked mostly with 2.5 inch width red scraps.

Monkey Wrench

Uses both red 1.5 and 2.5 inch scraps.  

10 inch blocks inspired by a picture in a Connecting Threads catalog. 

9 Patch Blocks

for a Snowball and Nine Patch quilt.


And sew on...

CELEBRATE! (my word of the year)

Feb. 23 - I said in yesterday's blog post that I was celebrating early in the day with the Dawn Chorus. But I also celebrated later in the day when I received a beautiful handmade Valentine card in the mail from Linda, an amazing and very thoughtful lady who blogs at Art in Search.

  2. Love how the mood changes with the dark backgrounds compared to the light backgrounds! Those Twilight Flock blocks will make a neat quilt, and also the ones from the CT catalogue. That's a lovely and thoughtful card!

  11. The reds are so different depending on what fabric you put with it and the shape of the pieces, amazing possibilities. I am sorry the card was late, but relieved that I got them all out. Glad USPS did its job.
