Rainbow Scrap Challenge -- and More.]

I finally got my sewing machine back last week and had to do a lot of catching up.  First my BOM for the Quilting Board challenge.  I had the church done -- I finnished the farmhouse and barn.  None of the blocks are embellished, but they are complete:)


Then I started a Log Cabin square for each of the colors of the month for The Soscrappy Rainbow Scrap Challenge.  I had the blue one done -- I completed the red and green ones.  I discovered I liked the colors mixed up -- not light on one side and dark on the other.  Well --I made a new blue block.  I think I'm getting better at this paper piecing thing. The houses are far from perfect, but many seasoned quilters are having trouble with them, especially th farmhouse block.   Also-- check out my One Flower Wednesday posts.   Living --Learning--Loving--Quilting.  It is nice to be back!!

  10. I just love the way you've done the log cabins. I agree I like the colors mixed instead of half light and half dark. That will make a colorful quilt!
