RSC Browns

I made 18 units with browns and beiges and creams. I only got the white, cream and beige mixed up twice. I turned on an extra lamp and was more careful after that.  I have really enjoyed working on these blocks. The blocks finish at 8 inches.

When the girls came home from school on Monday, I had Devan arrange all the blocks on the wall. There are a lot of dark colours in there. There are still reds and greens and oranges to do.  I started with the pinks and yellows back in Aug and there are a few more of those colours in the box.

It is not mindless sewing as there are a lot of triangles, but there is a rhythm once I got into it.

Sixty two down and thirty-eight more to go. Maybe.

September 2019 OMG Completion

My September one-monthly-goal 

was to sew together these 16 purple blocks.

Purple was the RSC colour for September. 

There are many ways to put these together.

Wonder what the colour will be for October?

Sept 2019 OMG Goal

The RSC colour for September is purple!!

This is what I have found already cut and sewn together of the 8 purple fabrics so this should be an easy goal for OMG this month.

And this is how 2 of the blocks will go together. I like that most of the prep work is already done. I can just enjoy sewing them all together. After this, I will have to cut squares and sew half-square triangles together but that is not too difficult.

New Project for RSC

I am back from my blogging break over the summer.

I was racking my brain trying to figure out if I had a ufo that would lend itself to the Rainbow Scrap Challenge and I came up with this one. I wrote about it last year. You can read that here.

I started with the yellow because most of these blocks were already partly sewn together. It is a good thing because I would have had much difficulty trying to figure out how the pieces went together.
And, since pink was July's colour, I sewed these up next. They were also partly sewn together.
I am making 2 squares of each colour. The colours really are much brighter than they look in the pictures here.

The August colour was light blue. I just sewed together all the blue shades except midnight blue and black. They were way too dark to show up against that black theme fabric.

So far, I am happy with all these. I certainly hope September's colour will be purple because I have all the purple half square triangles already sewn together. This will be a busy month for us here at the Farm and we will be making a trip to the Big E in Springfield Massachusetts at the end of the month.

Twenty-eight down and only 72 more to go.

Blessings,
Chris
