Rainbow Scrap Challenge: Year End

I ought to have a lovely wrap up for 2023.

- I made 16 patch blocks that turned into a scrappy baby quilt, a teal baby quilt, a picnic quilt, a wedding quilt, and a gift for a friend’s child.  I have lots of 2.5” bricks, but very few squares left.

-I made almost 300 box blocks that will all grow into quilts in 2024.

-I finished the stars and flowers for my hand pieced hexagon quilt, assembled them, and finished one side.

-

Here’s where I leave the year:
Lots of box blocks to turn into quilts.  This will be the first.
I have turned the corner on my hexie quilt.  The goal for 2024 is to finish the remaining three sides and prep for quilting.

 Next year, I’ll use my 2.5” bricks for flowers (it will make sense later) and my 1.5” scraps for more 16 patches.

What a year! Your are posed to equal, if not surpass it in 2024. I'm salivating over the hexie quilt.

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...
