Every month Angela, at Socsrappy, publishes a different colour for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge. This month's colour is lime and I've finished the lime patches. Unfortunately, before I could complete the orange alternate blocks I ran out of Bella navy blue. Well of course I have a few triangles left; the left overs from all cutting the Flying Geese, but nothing large enough to cut eight 4x4" squares and a few 2½" squares. Hence the gaps!
Tuesday, 17 November: Halt to progress! RSC 15: the blocks in rows 1 - 4 and row 7 are joined in the row; rows 5 and 6 are waiting for navy reinforcements. |
I intend adding a navy border and using navy for the binding. I just hope the LQS's current roll of navy doesn't differ too much from the one they had in January!
Update Saturday morning:
It matches! The blocks are completed! I'm going to change the sawtooth star points on the dark pink block, bottom left.
I shall be linking up to
on Saturday, so pop over there to see more Rainbow progress.
Happy sewing
Marly

Your RSC Sampler quilt is gorgeous with the navy background. I love it!
The navy background is stunning! Such great contrast. So glad you found more. Getting to the end and running out of the constant fabric would be simply frightening.
I just LOVE your navy background. The stars just twinkle.
THis is such a beautiful quilt Marly: I love the navy background and I'm glad the new roll of navy matches.
The navy background is wonderful. And I'm so glad you found a match. Sometimes one gets too far along to have to mix it up.
Wow! The navy background works really well. It's shaping up to be a gorgeous quilt.
