RSC26 Scrappy Rail Fence

 I'm back!  Whew...  It's been a busy three weeks in fourth grade as a substitute teacher.  She will return to work on Tuesday!  I'm back to being a free agent so that I can bounce from one school to another between different districts and different grade levels.  I'm anxious to see many of my little friends that I haven't seen since spring break due to the long term absence that I covered.  Can't wait!


No more lessons to plan for quite some time.  I WILL be prepping my sew-to-go bag this weekend!!!  I should be able to get some stitches in during my lunch and planning periods now.  Woohoo!!!

I had time to lay out the third section of my scrappy rail fence quilt.

These blocks are 3.5" (3" finished).  I have all of the blocks made.  I am going for a 28 x 30 block layout.

Oh, and just in case you are wondering.  The quilt on our California king bed (under the rail fence blocks) is called Go Four It (finished in 2021).  It is one of my all time favorite quilts.  You can read about it here.

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

    I love the blend of shades in the background of your Go For It quilt. It makes the whole quilt shine.

    Wow - those scrappy rails look so pretty together. I may have to add that little block to my RSC sewing in the future.

    Rail fence is a great quilt! A good way to use scraps but a lovely quilt. Happy stitching! Enjoy not teaching steadily.

    Hi!
    Where will you be sleeping this night?
    Sew faster!

    I like the railfence, I sew it often, because I can use small scraps!
    I use the same mesuments.

    Happy sewing!

    Hooray for a little freedom for you. The Rail Fence section looks so cute. And the Go Four It quilt is totally fabulous. I feel like I remember you making it & liked it then, too!

    There are such tiny little pieces in your lovely Go For It quilt. Good work getting the rail fence blocks all done, now getting all those blocks stitched together will be a big job.

    You've been busy! Glad it is slowing down a bit for you so that you get more time for quilting. Love your scrappy rail fence. Your Go For It quilt is gorgeous!

    Scraps on top of scraps! I am glad you now will have some breathing space with the long-term substitution over. The Go For It quilt is so pretty and the rail fence is so colorful too!
