Rail Fence -- RSC26

 I pulled out another RSC set of blocks that is ready to be put together.  I have 900 rail fence blocks.  They measure 3.5" (3" finished).  

I was a little overwhelmed how much area I needed to layout this quilt.  I didn't wait to take up the living room floor for days.  I decided to do one section of a time.  Each section will be 15 x 15 blocks vs. the 30 x 30 layout plan.


I made another row of progress on my January (2026) RSC project with blues.  It's called True Blue. One more row and some borders to go before the flimsy is complete.


I'm linking up at Angela's blog, SoScrappy, for the RSC26.

  13. You would think 900 blocks would make a dent in your scraps - did it? The blue quilt is coming along nicely!
