In The Pink Part I

Boo Boo Patches

Pink is the Rainbow Scrap Challenge (RSC) color for May. 

This week I dug into my pink scrap bag and took out all of the 1.5 inch width pieces I could find. 

Little Baskets 
4 inch finished

Windmills
4 inch finished
Switch Plates
3 x 5 inch finished

And sew on...

CELEBRATE! (my word of the year)

May 3 - Finished the book Elsewhere by Dean Koontz. The Key to Everything might have been a better name. (I know I would not ever want to be trusted with the Key to Everything).  The book is a fantasy that explores the multiverse theory and travel between parallel worlds. What if?  Also I had to laugh a few times when I read about bad guys with names like Yessman and Canker and a scientist that invented travel between parallel worlds named Harkenbach.

  4. Love the Boo Boo patches and the windmill blocks. Wow, I haven’t read a Dean Koontz book in thirty years. I read tones of them when I was pregnant. Don’t know what that says about me. 😆

  5. Your clever use of 1.5” strips has me almost ready to jump out of my strings rut to begin sewing some more creative things. I love those switch plates and the boo-boos.

  6. Lots of pretty pink blocks in your collections. I've read many Dean Koontz books over the years, but not this one.

  8. I am always amazed at what you can make with a bunch of 1-1/2" squares and strips. Does your husband read the same books that you read? I was just wondering if he did and if you shared your reactions. Kinda like a book reading group.
