RSC 15: A Few More Purple Scraps

It seems that this has been a week of prep work rather than actual sewing.  That's OK, because now I'm ready to power through some WIPs. 

I confess I didn't have many purple scraps in reproduction fabrics.  It was fun to seek out some repro purples for this month's Scrap Jar Stars blocks.  

I made some time for blog reading and coffee sipping before starting the day's activities and I was inspired by Marly's purple scissor cases.  I pulled some purple scraps and made one up quickly.  I didn't get the instructions exactly right, but I'll know better next time.  I also think I need a better purple button, but that will have to wait until the next trip to Hancock's.  If you need a scissor case of your own, the instructions are by Dawn Cornell at the Moda Bake Shop.

Lots more purple inspiration may be found at Angela's Soscrappy blog!
