RSC Saturday.....

I am so happy aqua, lime green and Caribbean Ocean colors were selected this month. I hope to pull out those scraps next week and play with them. This week I have been concentrating on my UFO I selected for the month. I made a bunch of 16 patch blocks last year with the challenge. Around this time last year I had a thought to set it in a 'goodnight irene' pattern. I'm happy to say it came out better than the picture in my head last year! This is now a top and hopefully it will get quilted in the next two weeks. I see a nice scrappy binding to finish it off. A big Thank you to Grandma H for taking the kids Thursday morning and keeping them until Friday afternoon. It allowed me to get my work done, enjoy some sewing time and have a nice dinner with the hubby.
Linking up on Saturday with the RSC Challenge. Head on over and get inspired.

I'll be hanging out in Orlando Saturday at the Crayola Experience with my girl scout troop. A slew of 5,6 and 7 year olds...thank goodness all have a parent going with us. I think we wanted to go as much as the kids did!  It should be a fun time.

Very pretty rainbow quilt. I really like Goodnight Irene pattern. After seeing yours it makes me want to make another one.

That is a beautiful quilt and perfect for rainbow colors! It's always such a good feeling when a project comes together even better than you expected!

Congrats on the lovely top. The blocks just seem to float. A scrappy edge should be very nice.

That 16 patch variety came out really cute! I may have to give that one a try.

Beautiful! I'm going to get mine done this month as well. I think I have all the squares done, now I just need to finish my border pieces.
