Each Sunday I dedicate to working on a specific quilt until it is finished. Currently I am focusing on Full Stop. Yesterday I loaded it unto the longarm. I will continue quilting it after church today.

Full Stop on the Frame

Last Scrappy Saturday in February -- RSC22
I made a lot of progress of cleaning up my desk with the strips and left-over pieces from bindings, blocks, and random light blues and teals. Many of them were made into 3.5" rail fence blocks. 127 to be exact!

St. Patrick's Day Table Topper
I saw a similar mini quilt on Instagram this week. This is inspired by Primrose Cottage Quilts. Check out their cute holiday-inspired designs in the Primrose Cottage Quilts Etsy Shop! They are sooooo much cuter than mine! I decided I would use some of my favorite shades of green and make this cheery table topper.

It didn't take long to get this quilt to the flimsy stage. Here's Full Stop:

RSC22 -- Teal & Light Blue
I'm still cutting scraps from other projects to make 3.5" rail fence blocks. Here's 40 aqua/light blue blocks. I didn't fussy cut anything on purpose. I do like the Sponge Bob and the fish that are happy little surprises in these blocks. 545 of 900 blocks complete.
I finally participated in one of the Project Quilting 2022 challenges. This challenge was called Mining for Diamonds. You can read all about it on my blog post here. It measures 60" x 7" to fit our shelf in the living room. Below is a photo of it on the shelf.
I'm linking up at Angela's blog, SoScrappy, for the RSC22.

PQ 13.4 Mining for Diamonds Challenge
Have you tried any of the Project Quilting challenges? This is my first one. Challenge 4 of Project QUILTING Season 13 is called Mining for Diamonds. Ahhh. I haven't made a quilt with diamonds yet.
It measures 60" x 7" to fit our shelf in the living room.
For this challenge I decided to go with the rhombus shape. Oh to think that when my kid was in kindergarten that he didn't pass a math test or two because he didn't know the rhombus shape and always called it a diamond... That's in the past. Let's move on...
The diamonds in my shelf runner were all cut with my Accuquilt die 55027. I used scraps from my light blue bin that I have been working on as the scrap color of the month for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge, 2022 -- better known as RSC22. We link up each week on Saturday and share our scrappy progress. I rummaged through the scrap bin and picked out a few blues and had them pressed and cut in under 20 minutes on Tuesday.
Don't you love it when you go to quilt an unusual shaped piece and you reach in the batting scraps and find that perfect piece? This piece of Warm & Natural quilt batting was trimmed off of the edge of another quilt. The fabric I used for the backing was a piece that I bought yards and yards and yards of at a garage sale at least ten years ago. I don't have much of it left. This shelf runner will be turned over and displayed as the backing during April because Easter decorations go on that shelf.
Cabins by the Lake is Complete
I'm super excited to have finished my OMG (One Main Goal) for February already. This quilt is called Cabins by the Lake. I started this quilt about 2017ish. I found the Ziplock bag project in one of my project totes. I decided that I would commit to make one block each week and post about it each Sunday. This plan really worked for me. Now it's a finished beauty. It measures 61.5" x 79".
The flannels used were from a layer cake I won years ago. It's been so long I can't remember the giveaway or the fabric line to give them credit. :(. Sorry. Some of the fabrics are cotton and not flannel such as the sashings and cornerstones.
