Had more fun today playing with scraps.

I finished these blocks and got them together to flimsy stage;

Due to being on evacuation alert, I am not making my RSC blocks or doing the Scrappy Table Topper Challenge. Instead I am making scrappy quilts to be donated to the Quilts for Lytton Drive, for wildfire victims in a town in BC which burnt with only 15 minutes notice for the residents to evacuate.

I haven’t found anything in my stash that is just right for borders so this might have to wait until I go to my LQS.

I also had time to play with this lovely fabric pull while working on my idea for a project for the Orange You Glad Blog Hop:

I will know tomorrow if my design works or if I need to scrap it and start over. 😳

What have you been working on today? Something bright and fun I hope. 😉 Carol

I have been fondling fabric and creating things with fabric and fiber for as long as I can remember. My children had homemade clothes, blankets, canning and quilts most of their lives. Now I create goodies to share! Hope you enjoy viewing them as much as I enjoy making them! When I am not creating with fiber or fabric I keep busy with Dear Heart, kids, grandkids, great grandkids.

I’m just so bummed I missed the Orange You Glad Hop, but I’m looking forward to seeing what you are creating!

  Hi Wendy. You missed the sign up? That’s too bad since it’s a colour you like so much 😁. Fingers crossed my project works

Love your scrappy – they’re so much fun to do. You could do a scrappy border and avoid buying yardage.

The white certainly sets off your scraps … it’s gonna be lovely!
Hope the smoke isn’t too bad …

  Thanks Gail. White isn’t my favourite to us but it does make the scraps pop! The smoke here is getting worse but there might be a drop or two of rain with the electrical storms. 🤞🏻😉

Love your color pull for the hop. Unlike Wendy, I just couldn’t sign up for it…and really glad that I am taking it a bit easier in August. I really can’t wait to see yours. I’ll be in touch about sending quilts, once we get to Maine.
