week 4 January blue rainbow scrap challenge

This is week 4 already for the rainbow scrap challenge. I have assembled all the blocks I had made for flying home. I definitely want it bigger. I have 8 leftover blocks. I only have to make 4 more to add a row to the top and bottom. That is what I have decided to do. I made a trip to hobby lobby and found a really great border fabric, too.

zig zag quilt, is last year's rsc project. I cut and sewed all the blocks. This year, the plan is to take all the single units in the color of the month, and sew twosies with any other color. That way, I won't even notice I am working on assembling the quilt. Sneaky right?

I added the color to the 16 patches I made last week for my square dance blocks. Very nice and scrappy.

I cut for rolling windmills. It was a bit challenging. All the pieces for the block need to be facing up to cut them. I had 2 that I didn't get right.

They are very cute.

I brought the string blocks from blue skies with me on vacation. I pieced the first row. I am following a graph for a supernova layout I found online. I am angularly challenged, so I must have checked it 20 times before sewing it together. I hope to get more done this month.
