red scraps and rsc

I started sorting for the  rainbow scrap challenge at so scrappy with 1 1/2 inch strips in red. I went through the entire gallon bag of strips and pulling any that were not at least 12 inches long. I had a nice little pile. I cut as many as I could into 1 1/2 inch squares for easy breezy blocks if there was 4 matching. If there was at least 3 inches left I put them together to make 4 patches, some will be used for blossom time and some will just be made into random 4 patches. The goal is to clean up the strip bins this year. I have used strips for pieces of scrap blocks and left the bits and pieces to get in the way,

For 2 inch strips I went to my civil war reproduction scraps to make a block I saw on pinterest, that I want to make. It is an old block called star and cross, a variation of churn dasher. I cut 9 sets from the red scraps. I still need to cut hsts before I can sew them. And I am not sure they will get sewn each month. But, at least I will cut each month.
 

I get a pass on Boho heart this month, since, all the red and pink blocks are finished. 

I found my pattern for razzle dazzle and I think I am waiting to make that at another time, but it is still early in the month.

I sewed the hsts for candy. They are ready to go

Not very exciting, but, progress. We have single digits here in Indiana, still no real snow.
