RSC Table Scraps Challenge

 It feels so good to get extra bits from a quilt turned into something fun and useful! I was able to make 2 - table toppers this month!

The first one I shared earlier this month and it has been getting used as my dinner placemat at the table. Such a sunny spot on my table.



The second topper got finished off tonight. It is double sided using extra bits from the same graduation quilts parts that made the placemat. One side is logs of yellow in a windmill type block. 

The other side is 5 - 16 patch blocks in yellows and blues. I do love these colors together.





This is the graduation quilt that the scraps came from.


I'll be linking up with Joy and her table top challenge.

I have also been making hexagon quilt as you go blocks this month in yellow. I admit... this pile is missing 5 of the 28 blocks.... but they are all prepped and waiting to be stitched. After all... there are 2 more days in February and plenty of time to get them stitched up before the new color is announced. I still have one set of blocks to make in yellow.... and hopefully they will get completed this weekend to show next week.


Linking up Saturday with the RSC.

Yellow was a great color for this dreary February! I love that you made your table runner double sided! Way to go!

I'm a fan of blue and yellow too. Nice job on making a double sided runner. I always thing the reverse side, even if it's just one fabric can be used. I am looking forward to the next color. On to March.

Beautiful table runner to go with your table mat. I love the subtle change in yellows in it!

Your tablerunner and placemat make a happy table! I love that the runner is two-sided, and that checkerboard side is really neat. The blues and yellows are so pretty together!

Beautiful runner and placemate, I love the 2 sided runner. Yellow and blue are always a great combo color. Well done, Deb!

I love the yellow and the blue together. I rarely make anything just for me, but I should.
