I finished my hashtag blocks for the Full Stop quilt. I will be trying to use solid scraps with a grey background. Fingers crossed that 4+ yards will be enough of this background fabric. Instructions for this can be found on Angela's blog, SoScrappy, here.
If I were to make this again as a baby quilt I think I would go with a 4 x 6 layout instead of a 6 x 8 layout as above. I did not put the border in the pattern on the quilt. It was getting too big already. Also, I already had these strips made from several years ago when I was using up tiny scraps during an RSC pink month in February of 2014. I made them using the long brown paper with the instructions on it from Warm & Natural quilt batting roll. I sewed them all together and then cut them accurately with my Accuquilt 2.5" strip die. It went amazingly well that way. You can read about some of that post here.
Below is a picture of the quilt that I finished using the pink strips back in February, 2019. You can read all about that quilt here.
I'm linking up at Angela's blog for the RSC21. Click over that and be amazed by all the fun projects others have created using pink scraps! Join the fun here.

The quilt in pink looks great, recently saw the blue version.
Lovely pink version of Winter Blues, and beautiful RSC blocks!
I just LOVE your Winter Blues in pink! I'm definitely going to do the same as soon as my machine gets back from the spa. The Pink Strip quilt is really pretty too. I may take a page out of that book too since I love foundation piecing. Great idea in what ever color!
