Red scrappiness

Yesterday I had a small amount of time for sewing, so, I decided to start some churn dash blocks.  I have been wanting to make some for quite a while and why not in red for this months color for RSC17. I have no idea what these will become, but that is beside the point-right?  I am using stash fabric and getting something done, that is good enough for me this week!  These little guys will be 6" finished and oh so cute this size.
 

This week has been a busy week of cleaning in preparation for the local longarm meeting which I am hosting today. It's a great motivator for getting some deeper cleaning done!  Very appropriate that our meeting falls on Worldwide Quilting Day!  I have also been working on my projects for the Henry Glass Desire to Inspire Challenge which I need done by the end of the month. Hope all of you have had a good week.


And on behalf of my fellow Island Batik Ambassadors I wish you a

    Red and cream is such a pretty color combination. Hope your meeting was a lot of fun. And the bonus is you get to start up in a clean sewing space.

    Oh, Vicki!!!!! These meetings & me getting together with you(!) just isn't coming together, is it!!???? I know the meeting was great and I miss y'all! Those little 6" blocks are the best idea! Of course, immediately upon seeing them, my 1st thought was "I wonder how to quilt them?" Must be 'on point' with solid blocks/sashing between to allow for some purty thread designs....LOL! Hugs......

    I love churn dashes! I'm making a quilt for my son right now with lots of churn dashes in it. It's a traditional type quilt with a fabric that has antique toys in it. Enjoy your project!

    This might be my favorite of all the 'traditional' blocks! The point is you had fun...what you do with it doesn't matter...right?!
