Rainbow Scrap Challenge

This year, at least for a while, I'm going to join the Rainbow Scrap Challenge hosted by Soscrappy.  The first color was chosen was pink, and all I could think was WHY?  Pink is my daughters' favorite colors and one of my least favorite.  Ah, well.  Let's get it over with.

First, I had to sort through my scrap bags and pull out any pinks.  Then, the Assistant helped me sort them by length.
 And I began to sort the itty bitty bits.

Trimming commenced, and a rough plan of what to do.  We are expecting another new niece (once again, my baby is the only boy in a trio of babies) in March, and she needs a blanket!  This scrappy pink blanket should be the ticket.

Essentially, I'm attempting to piece my scraps into 4.5" squares, which will alternate with 4.5" solid pink squares to give the eye a place to rest.

Sewing the bits is addicting and obsessive.   I'm enjoying it so far!

Sewing all the little bits together can be addictive. Glad you were able to turn all the little bits into something nice.

August Block Count

 I thought I wrote this, but it seems to be lost somewhere or I never wrote it at all… August was a quiet block month, with only 42 16-patch...
