I finished the last 2 blocks from yesterdays post about my zig zag ripple blocks. I decided to finish with gray for the blocks.
I am linking:
I enjoy participating in the rainbow scrap challenge each year. I pick a few quilt ideas that will use up scraps in a certain size. This year for the 1 1/2 inch strips I followed the color of the month and made a zig zag ripple block. Now, that it is the end of the year, I wanted to clean out some of my projects and regroup. I did a count of ripple blocks for the year and I had 70 finished. My goal was 72. I found 2 gray strips and I will make those and, then, the blocks will go into the ufo closet for a little vacation.
I made windmills in orange this week as part of my rainbow scrap challenge projects. I love how easy these are to make. Maybe this can be my go to donation quilt block. I am using 2 1/2 inch strips this year and all it takes is an 18 inch strip cut into 4 1/2 inch rectangles after I sew it to an 18 inch background. Although it is August and I still need to look at a block to know which way to turn the little blocks haha

Not much aqua scrap sewing this week. I did finish 1 1/2 inch ripple blocks, I made fewer than my goal, so more may still be made.
