Winter Blues

... but only the kind that accompany a Rainbow Scrap Challenge!

This month began busy and only seems to be speeding up!  I set some lofty goals for myself and may just have to let some of them fall away, including plans to dive into my luscious blue scraps, as I have a little girl who needs a "Laura Ingalls" dress and pinafore by the end of the month.  I've got to get crackin'.  As it is, here's what I accomplished before and after quilting Easy Street.

There are blocks that are part of Judy Laquidara's Scrappy Challenge.  I plan on making 12 - 6" blocks each month for a quilt for my son's full size mattress.

Then there are the blocks Angela shared and some tiny 9-patches and 4-patches:

Great blue blocks. Will the challenge with Judy be all blues for your son? I may join that one too... If I can get things done this next week.

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...
