Welcome to Week 9 of the Rainbow Scrap Challenge!! This week was SEW productive. Take a moment to grab a snack and a drink because there will be LOTS of links to follow!
Candy stopped by to drop off a couple of donation quilts (Thank you, Ruth S.!!) for the Covid Nurse Quilt Project for Wake Med. Of course, a bag of fabric scraps accompanied the quilts:
I did some binding:
And visited with Britt, who stopped by bearing gifts:
Stitching stars of the wonky variety kept me busy most of the afternoon:
MONDAY - {Not so...} Mini Monday was released last night, so that I could join the SAHRR before Week 4's Link Party closed.
TUESDAY - Holy cow!! I am reeling from all the posts and projects (and our power being out yesterday.)
This morning, I released another installment of The Guest Blogger(s) today, as Jane from Australia completed her February 2021 TABLE SCRAPS Challenge project.
This afternoon, Ruth B. dropped of a donation quilt for the Covid Nurse Quilt Project that I'm helping with. Large lap quilts are being collected for a local(ish) hospital where a friend's son works - details available upon request:
This evening, I enjoyed a Zoom-y Nights (Virtual) Quilt Bee meeting with friends:
WEDNESDAY - Just after midnight I released the post for my STOP on Carla's latest event. Check out my STOP on the Show Your Stripes Blog Hop. Hint! If you like the looks of my project, you REALLY need to go read the post. Here's a preview:
12 hours later, Knittingsuek stopped by for a grocery swap:
Look!! We saw one of the first signs of Spring:
Another 9 hours later, I released a new edition of
Edited to add one of my favorite parts of the day...
My apologies to LeeAnna! In my efforts to make sure I captured everything from the day, I somehow managed to neglect posting our weekly Zoom meeting:
THURSDAY - Our scheduler missed ZoomBEE this week. (Hope you are having a glorious time at the beach, Deborah!) Carol filled the void and hosted these 13 quilters this morning:
After a quick bite to eat, I was off on a scavenger hunt. Hunting for donation quilts for the Covid Nurse Quilt Project for Wake Med!!
First stop, Jean's house:
Then on to Diane's:
Followed by a brief visit at Cheryl K's house:
The final donation was delivered to my door by Maggie:
Sorry, friends! You will have to wait a little while to hear (and see) more about the quilts. They will be included in a future edition of Sew Some Love Sunday.
This evening, I remembered that I still needed to finish up my TABLE SCRAPS Challenge entry for this month. I did a little sewing and finished preparing my post:
FRIDAY - The February 2021 TABLE SCRAPS Challenge and Link Party went live early this morning/durina cog the middle of the night!!
At a more reasonable hour, ZoomKNIT met - with a couple of long lost knitters in the mix. It was wonderful to see members of our Knit Group who are rarely able to join us:
SATURDAY - It's LINK PARTY day for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge. Please visit the RSC Quilters hosted by Angela @ So Scrappy. The end of the month is here. Let's see what YELLOW projects have been completed. Have you wondered what our new color will be?? Until that is announced, enjoy this little taste of Spring from the woods behind our house. These daffodils bloomed the day before yesterday - but the ones out front (in full sun) have yet to bloom:
Also, check out the latest edition of The Guest Blogger(s). Connie's post will be released momentarily. The word on the street is that March's Color of the Month is GREEN!!! Time to get busy on my next entry for the TABLE SCRAPS Challenge. With Angela's new color announcement, I already have an idea of what I will make. :o))
Until next time...
Get SCRAPPY!!!
