Scrappy Challenge

Since I've been on a scrap-reducing kick, I was happy to find the SuperScrappy blog, where the challenge is to focus on one color every month. January is red, a cheerful way to start the year. In addition to cutting more hexagons & 1.5 x 3" pieces from the small bits in the bottom of my bin of red fabrics, I also used the opportunity of Wild Card Weekend to make a red dresden ring and two simple blocks. These are a very fast way to end up with some rainbow bright quilts at the end of the year. (And I even figured out how to get the Rainbow Scrap Challenge "widget" onto this blog.)

    What happy red blocks. So happy that you have joined into the challenge. The widget looks great on your blog. Your Dresden plate block is beautiful, it will look perfect in a garden of rainbow blocks.
