Rainbow Scrap Challenge (RSC) Blocks


Boo Boo Patch
3 x 6 inch
Made with 1.5 inch width scraps.

I now have 168 blocks out of a goal of 260. 

The Rainbow Scrap Challenge (RSC) color of the month is yellow. I don't have many yellow scraps but do have a whole lot of different RSC blocks in the works so I'm spending this month getting caught up on some blocks I didn't get around to making with pink (January) and blue (February).

I call them Boo Boo patches because a long time ago I meant to measure and cut my strip sets for 18 patch blocks like are in my recent finish.  What a big mistake (Boo Boo) that was! But I decided the blocks were cute and have been making them with 1.5 inch scraps long enough ever since. 

16 Patch
RSC color alternating with green
6 inch blocks
made with 2 inch width scraps.

I now have 109 blocks toward a goal of 120 or 130. 

Easy Breezy
6 inch blocks
Made with 2 inch width scraps.
RSC color +1.

I started making these this year and have 29 blocks toward a goal of 120 or 130.

8 Patch
8 inch blocks
Made with 2.5 inch width scraps

I now have 37 blocks toward a goal of 63. 

All of these blocks are going into comfort quilts that will end up close to 60 x 80. 

And sew on...

I love and admire your process. You are far more patient than I. Yeah, I was not born with the patience gene ;-)

Happy Saturday Cathy!

You may not have many YELLOW scraps for the RSC, but certainly seem to have made the most of them. Well done!
