ScrapHappy Saturday - RSC21 - Week 10

Welcome to Week 10 of the Rainbow Scrap Challenge!!  Our hostess is Angela from So Scrappy.  She helps us use our fabric scraps one color at a time.  This is Transition Week at the RSC.  After one last day of YELLOW scrap sewing, the RSC Quilters will have a new color to focus on during the month of March.

Let's see how this week progressed...

SUNDAY - A new edition of Sew Some Love Sunday was released this morning.

Tonight, I released another {Not So...} Mini Monday post.  SAHRR, Round 6 in the works:


MONDAY - Welcome to March and GREEN month at the Rainbow Scrap Challenge!!  So what did I do?  I might have started making something in Black and White today (wink! wink!):


Yikes!!! I joined the #IGQuiltFest2021 - wearing my GREEN scrappy Shamrock Surprise Jacket, of course:


TUESDAY - Look what I made yesterday!  It's Angela's Bracket block for her Full Stop RSC21 QAL:


After prepping Betsy's next quilt for longarming, I decided to start my H2H21 project.  There is a tiny bit of GREEN in it:



WEDNESDAY - I dragged myself out of the house bright and early this morning to get my 1st COVID vaccine:


When I got home, I jumped right on the longarm and started quilting:


My goal was to finish before my Zoom call with LeeAnna and I'm pleased to report that I even had time to go make a cup of tea:


Instead of just chatting (like I normally do), I decided to press those H2H blocks from yesterday:


THURSDAY - ZoomBEE met this morning.  There were 14 quilters in attendance!  It was SEW nice to have such a full house:


I'm SEW excited!!!  Last night, I found that my niece's wedding quilt got top billing in this week's Needle & Thread Thursday link-up.  Thanks, Kelly!  Here's the button to prove it:



ONE more Betsy quilt, locked and loaded...


... My RSC Quilter friends should notice that there are some lovely GREEN scraps in the quilt AND my stitch tester fabric also displays the Color of the Month.   :o))


FRIDAY - ZoomKNIT was hosted by Beth today, as Cindy was at the beach for a BIG birthday getaway:



Green SHOULD have been the color of the day...


... As Angela released the "official" color announcement yesterday.  Alas, I have SEW got to focus on this week's PQ12.5 challenge.  Hopefully, I'll be able to finish my little quilt between now and Sunday!  I did manage to get a really good start on it this afternoon.

SATURDAY - LINK PARTY day for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge.  I'm looking forward to all the GREEN scrappy goodness that is sure to abound!  Angela's link will probably go live sometime soon.

Once I've finished You're Crazy for Project QUILTING, I will be focusing on working through my idea for Round 7 of the Stay At Home Round Robin.  THEN, finally I should be able to fit some GREEN scrap play into my day.  I'm looking forward to that.

Until next time...
Get Scrappy!!!

  5. You've had a busy and fun week from the look of things. The shamrock jacket is fun! I envy your Zoom groups. Wish my quilting friends and other friends were willing to get onto Zoom to meet more than once every couple of months.

  20. Oh Joy, you live up to your name...chasing projects and squirrels all over the place. I am glad that you got your vaccine. I am thrilled to learn that your quilt was featured on NTT and so I clicked to check it out. It is so soothing and absolutely beautiful. And bonus - mine was there too. Have a lovely Sunday.

  21. Hey Joy, I saw your quilt over at Kelly's...what a beauty!
    You are keeping busy with all your lovely stitching. I'm envious you got your vaccine too...that's a great thing to have out of the way. You have a wonderful smile...very joyful indeed.

  22. It makes me happy to read that so many of the quilting community are finally getting their first or second shot. I got mine (Pfizer) a week ago. It was amazing what a sense of relief it engendered, even if it's not fully effective for two weeks. I'm not planning on abandoning my mask or going out much anyway. Maybe by June, depending on what the current situation is by then. Lots of green showing up (I love our jacket), although I haven't pulled my green scraps out yet. And I have nothing St. Patricky to show since we are usually still down south until late March. Congrats on having the wedding quilt highlighted.
