RSC21 -- Finishing a Fabulous Month of Pink Scraps! -- I LOVE Table Scraps!

I finished my Go Four It quilt on Thursday.  I am sooooo pleased with it.  We had a light dusting of snow.  I took it outside for a photo.  The sun was not shining so the splendor of the bright blocks don't show as well, but it is beautiful.

I quilted it with my Circle Lord giant template board called Swirls.  I pieced pieces of bright fabrics for the binding.  I love the binding!

I took the challenge that Joy suggested called Table Scraps.  I made this little table topper.  I just LOVE it!!!  It makes me happy just to walk past it.  It makes me happy to have a sweet little finish.  I think about several of my bloggy friends as I walk by and am thankful for all of them!  Come see all the fun table toppers on Joy's blog today, The Joyful Quilter, here.

I had a bunch of pink squares and strips left over from my Winter Blues (in pink) quilt.  I just happened to get my e-mail from Sew Can She with this cute heart pattern called Baby Heart Log Cabin Quilt.  I used 1.5" squares instead of the suggested size.  It turned out super cute.  You can find the pattern here.  Such a great idea to make something out of the little scraps left out after another project, Joy!  

It measures 18" square.  I quilted it with one of my block templates that had heart motifs in the center and then put a border around it and some squiggles.  It was good to practice some of the things I haven't done for a while on the longarm.

I'm almost embarrassed to show this, but this is real life...  Here's the before picture.

Here's the after photo.  Look... H A P P Y!!  The funny thing is that this is in the "old" house where we are living until we finish the other house (on the same property.)  This little stand that holds all our son's Wii remotes and console and the satellite receiver and dvd player is a little stand that I found on the road in a ditch.  I brought it home and used it along a sewing table long ago.  When I got my longarm there was no more need for the extra sewing table.  My husband sawed it half w hen we got our big tv for Christmas.  If it's going to be a temporary thing, it might as well be pretty.  :)

Yesterday I finished my Winter Blues -- In Pink.  This pattern is designed by Bonnie Hunter (I used a string strip border on this crib quilt vs. the braid she put on her full-sized quilt.)  You can read all about it here.  But here are a few pictures from yesterday.

I made a pieced back by using three pieces of pink from my scrap bin.

 Cathy that blogs at Sane, Crazy, Crumby Quilting inspired me in (as she always does) to use up those scraps.  Check out her gorgeous rail fence quilt here.  She made 900 blocks here and there over a few years and ended up with a gorgeous quilt.  

I loved the idea of using up 1.5" strips of the color of the month for the RSC and started making them in 2021.  Here's the first 14 of 900...

I haven't made a quilt with a black background yet.  With a few big projects coming to a close, I am allowing myself to start a simple, new RSC project.  I expect this one to be a quilt top by the end of 2021.  I am making the GO! ABC quilt.  Each month I will about 3 letter blocks.  These are the four hearts in the corners of the quilt. 

I had to play with black scraps before I could start this little quilt.

It was a very productive month of pink for me.

You can get the GO! ABC pattern on the Accuquilt site here.
