RSC 2025 February - Blue

I completed 20 blocks for my Colorwash Quilt:


There is a lot more variety in the colours this month . . .amazing what you find when you raid the strip boxes.

Then I made 3 placemats...that got rid of most of the longer blue strips...still short lengths sitting around....

Great start on blues!

Great placemats. You could use your smaller lengths to make smaller squares and join them together to make another placemat

Lin said...

Great use of your strips - coasters with the smaller bits? xx

Well done, Susan. Love the bright centers in your Colorwash Quilt.

I particularly like free cutting techniques.
Nice work - great fabrics.
A hug for you and many greetings.

I’m loving the idea of the strips sewn together diagonally - I might have to pinch your idea and I might have a quilt from all my scraps by the end of the year!

I love how the centres are all sizes/placements in your blue blocks...they look great.
