RSC - Light Blue....


I added a couple of the Stashbuster blocks in light blue (ok, humor me on the second one!)


My 10 Sweet Confetti blocks from Sunday Best Quilts were also completed this week. I think I am all caught up for light blue. 


I guess I have 5 or 6 blocks I am working on this year for the RSC.

2-16 patches.

14 Cobblestone blocks to make a row quilt.


Stars and nines - each set of 4 is a 12 inch block. This will probably be multiple quilts. 


I have added a few crumb blocks some months as well. 

Yesterday I pinned the Umbrella quilt for hoop quilting. I hope to start it tonight as I have been informed it is a movie night by Ms. Emily. We watched Woody the Woodpecker earlier this week when I had a headache so we watched in the bedroom. Tonight will be living room with popcorn to watch 'The Princess Bride'. One of my favorite movies....neither kid has watched the whole movie. Each has seen parts. They now get the quote I love to say 'You killed my father, prepare to die!'. 

We did some social distance blueberry picking this week. 



I have 5 quart freezer bags full of frozen berries in the freezer now. It was nice to leave the house! I also popped out for fresh corn on the cobb. It was so yummy. Emily and I had 2 each last night and today for lunch. I have 3 left - one was a baby corn in the bag and not fully formed so he didn't get cooked. The boys opted not to have any.... their loss!

Linking up with the RSC Saturday. Go and see how well others are playing with their scraps!

I love all those quilt blocks - and I love the Princess Bride! I haven't seen it in years. corn on the cob and blueberries sound wonderful

Picking blueberries sounds like fun! Lots of great blue scrap progress as well. I could watch Princess Bride again and again. So many classic lines.

A great collection of blocks. The star blocks particularly caught my eye. They’re a great favourite of mine to make and always make a lovely quilt.

I enjoyed seeing all your blue blocks! I have several RSC projects in the works, too - there are always so many good ideas to play with. And fresh blueberries - yum! We picked them when visiting in Vermont one summer - blueberries from the store are never that good.

I’ve been tempted to try a scrap buster block. I’m wondering if I have enough of a cream fabric for the center block?
When I get my sewing space put back together, I’m going to check and see!

I like all your blocks especially the Sweet Confetti because it is so unusual.

And I want to pick blueberries!! The deer eat my blueberry bushes, darn it. Blueberry pancakes and muffins...yummmmm!!

Blueberry picking is so fun (and hard if it’s hot!). I love corn on the cob too.
