How can playing with pink scraps not be fun?!
This month's color for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge was pink. I had plenty of fun stitching up pink scrappy blocks, and even started a new scrap project.
The oldest batch of blocks in my current RSC collection are Antique Tiles blocks.
Blackford's Beauty was an unexpected RSC 2022 block. I didn't think I had enough scrappy variety for multiple blocks, but one block per month (in each fabric style) still uses up a bunch of scraps!

And thanks to Pat Sloan - I started up another RSC project.
These are 36-patch blocks, constructed of 2.5 inch squares. After seeing Pat Sloan talk about this on a YouTube video, I pulled out my Accuquilt and started cutting.
All my see-through project boxes are currently occupied (imagine that!), so I pulled out a tin and a wooden cigar box to keep the pieces tamed. As soon as the next RSC color is announced, I'll cut another batch of squares and pair them up with light squares to use as leader-enders.
I've been waiting for just the right project to use this Crabtree & Evelyn tin. This makes me smile every time I see it!
