I am finding it tough to pick the pinks....but will go with what I have as this is a scrappy quilt. My pink stash is lacking........ I guess I have a daughter that prefers red and purple! I'm going to try the magic 8 method to make the half square triangles since I need 8 of the same for this block. Always good to try new things. Here is a shot of the blocks so far.
I have a little time before heading out to walk in the local light up Ocala parade with the girl scout troop. There is no rain in the forecast and the temps are in the 70's so it will be comfortable. I let the boys know they are in charge of dinner tonight. We had pizza last night so we will see what they come up with!
Linking up with the RSC Quilters. See how others are coming along with finishing up some scrappy quilts they have been working on this year.

I think I like an on point setting the best for squared away
Here's hoping your creative mojo returns! It happens to us all at one time or another, and who knows why. I love the picture of all your blocks on point - so pretty!
Your blocks look nice. I'm going to try to do mine on point also.
Oh new ruler markings are hard to get used to for sure!! Those extra 1/4" and 1/2" really mess me up!! i understand the theory behind them, but when it goes to cutting--aaaargh!!
Your blocks look really lovely hugs, Julierose
Your mojo will return; sometimes it just takes a little vacation. Love your blocks but also dislike rulers that are different. Good Luck! ~Jeanne
If your pink fabric isn't cooperating, choose another color. It's YOUR quilt!! It's looking really good, there on the floor and I'm sure it will be even better sewn into a quilt top. Best of luck with getting your sewjo back!
Ooh, we all have slumps. Usually a sign that it's time to rest and recharge. Don't force yourself to use pink--pick any color you like! Your blocks look great and will make a lovely quilt.
I love my Creative Grids rulers and won't go back. I've replaced almost all with the CG rulers. I love the 1/2" since most of the cuts I make are all on the 1/2". Hope you learn to like it.
