Orange hour-glasses

After January's green, Angela gave orange as the colour for February. I like orange; it's such a happy sunny colour, and sunshine is what we could use here now!

I explained in January that I was combining several challenges so the hour-glasses for the AHIQ was combined with the RSC colour for January. And now February too!

Here are my improv hour-glass blocks:

The four on the left and right are 5.75" square, and the other four are 5.25" square. That will be an interesting jig saw! But that's improv! 😀

I really need to think about what I'm going to use as my RSC block this year. I don't intend making wonky hour-glass blocks next week, whether in red?, yellow?, pink? or ? ...

...OK, it's TEAL.

I shall be linking this in due time to:

Happy sewing

Marly.

These are cool blocks and I like the orange too, a nice balance to the endless rain we are having.

Never thought of doing these as improv. I'm impressed that they came out so well! Have a great day!

My AHIQ hourglass project is waiting to be pin basted and quilted . . . maybe in March. Have fun deciding what to do with your teals.

Hour glass does make a pretty scrap quilt.

Nice use of a few ORANGE scraps! I'll be looking forward to what you decide about teal for the RSC.
