Scrap Happy January 2019


First scrappy thing done this month was to get the binding onto this scrappy quilt.   It was quilted while I was on vacation over Christmas in Arizona.   Still need to put a label on it but I need to decide what to do for that.  Once the label is on the quilt I'll be listing it for sale.













Last month I made these 9 blocks with my batik strings.
The the 9 original orange blocks I've added 7 yellow blocks and 3 red ones.   Those colors are now gone from the strings.

And I added 6 more orange blocks from additional orange strings that I found while doing some cleaning.  That makes a total of 25 blocks finished so far. 

Still to come blues, pinks, greens and purples.






Check out what the others have done with their scraps this month -

Gratitudes:
1. For the new commission that I've received and all the work that it will bring to me.

2. For my counts being up, albeit now too high!

So far, it's a gorgeous fresh and juicy colour palette. Maybe some greens next? :-) It's like you're calling summer into existence in the middle of winter.
