finishing ALL the purples:

from the lightest (and darkest) pinks to nearly brown...


life is busy- but i do find some time to have some quiet time up in the sewing room, and keep up with my RSC projects. it's something i really enjoy! 


i added a few more twinkly stars to the growing, colorful pile. instead of keeping the blocks all 3x3, 4x4 or even 5x5 i decided to make them all random, according to the shades of the COM that i had. 



then, at the end of the year, i'll piece the blocks all together randomly, higgelty-piggelty style. i think it will be more interesting that way anyway... 





i made a whole slew of purple donuts and shoo-fly blocks, too. very happy with them as well!



 4 more waffle blocks join the wings, waiting for breakfast time in December. haha. 



i also finished a lingering RSC UFO- from 2019! i made a large pile of 9 patches- both light and dark, planning on making them into a tablecloth. we're having a *modestly sized church/family picnic* tomorrow {what was i thinking?!} and its debut is planned. stay tuned for a post about that. (the quilt, not the picnic, necessarily. i haven't' taken a picture of the quilt yet.. ) 

click on over the our favorite spot for Saturday mornings and see what everyone else is working on!

Great RSC blocks! I especially like the idea of the higgledy piggledy star quilt.

Your star quilt will be really neat with its blocks of different sizes! Like a night sky! Love seeing the rest of your projects, too.

I think I’m at the end of sewing hollow 9s. I’m sure I have enough for one quilt, maybe two! And I’m sort of bored! I love the idea of random wonky stars! I can wait to see it all together!

I'm hungry reading about all these donuts and waffles! Your blocks are lovely. Enjoy the picnic.

Love your twinkly star blocks, such a good idea to make them different sizes. Of course, they will all fit together fine wont they.
