Boo Boo Patches
3 x 6 finished
1.5 inch scraps
Patches so named because when I first started making these I meant to cut the strip set into 2.5 inch lengths and ended up cutting them into 1.5 inch lengths instead. I just went with the flow and named them Boo Boo Patches.
Four Patches
4 inch
2.5 inch scraps
At the beginning of the month I mentioned I had a box of 2.5 inch width bits and pieces that I wanted to empty. I have sorted most of the bits and pieces now and have a baggie of some doubles of 2.5 inch squares I'm going to make into Four Patches. After that I'm thinking they might join up with some 4.5 inch scraps and turn into some Double Four Patches. Maybe...
Red is the Rainbow Scrap Challenge (RSC) color of the month.
And sew on...

REMEMBER, TREASURE, GROW, READ (my words of the year)
Finished two books in the Martini Club series - The Spy Coast and The Summer Guests by Tess Gerritsen. The Martini Club is a group of CIA officers who all retired and moved to a quiet small town. When a crime occurs they (The Martini Club) use their super powers to work behind the scenes to help out the acting Police Chief who doesn't know until book 2 that they are retired CIA operatives. Book 3 in the series is due to come out in November.

The book recommendation sounds like something I will enjoy reading. Thanks! Lots of variety in those cute little red blocks.
I read both of those books too and enjoyed them.
Lovely prints in the reds but I don't see roses. I saw that December is marked with Roses. Want some more? I got the same print coming your way. I'll let you know when it's in the mail. Enjoy! ;^)
I like the idea of a Double 4-Patch, Cathy. If not that, I'm sure you will come up with something equally wonderful. Happy quilting!
Your patches (boo boo or otherwise!) are pretty in red! I read the first book in that series - looking forward to getting the next one soon!
Your Boo Boo blocks are looking good. Also, I checked, and"The Spy Coast": Amazon MGM Studios has optioned "The Spy Coast" for a television series. I'm interested in seeing it.
Thanks for the shout out about Wrap-A-Smile, Cathy! You continue to recruit quilters for Rotaplast. Much appreciated! 💞
