ScrapHappy Saturday - RSC25 - Week 2

Welcome to Week 2 of the 2025 Rainbow Scrap Challenge!!  This week includes the 1st challenge for Season 16 of ProjectQUILTING.  Here's hoping that I can figure out how to sew with a broken finger, as this will be my 5th year of participation and I really don't want to miss out on the fun!

Let's start where we left off last Saturday...

After releasing my post and joining the RSC Link Party, I enjoyed my Weekly Zoom call with Knittingsuek...


And later attended the Opening of the Season of the Messy Middle where I made the following art journal page filled with quite a few layers:


Here's how this week progressed...

SUNDAY - During my Weekly Morning Art Zoom I finally made a start on Junk Journal January by painting this spread and adding the month's prompts:


This afternoon we had snow flurries which is the white stuff you can see on the door mat hanging over the porch rail:


MONDAY - Work

I had to stop at the store on the way home, so my Weekly Zoom with LeeAnna @ Not Afraid of Color was a bit delayed:


TUESDAY - Work...

With a side of cooking.  On today's menu?  French Dip Sandwiches.  Yum!

WEDNESDAY - Wonderful Wednesday a post you won't want to miss!!!

Day Off / Doctor Day with several other appointments to be scheduled.

A bit of art this afternoon to finish up on one of my last two prompts (WORLDLY WISE) for the 5 Minute BINGO challenge from The Ugly Art Club:


It was a cooking night tonight, as well.  I made this tasty Lentil Potato Soup from Plant Based on a Budget:

NOT my photo!!

THURSDAY - Work

All 3 procedures were scheduled for... NEXT week.  YIKES!!!

FRIDAY - Day Off

That meant that I should be able to attend Knit Group.  Right? Well... Yes, but I had to leave early because I have a full day planned:

Rats!  I didn't get a picture with Linda and Stacy.  :o((

Happy (belated) birthday, Hilary!  Lunch at Saratoga Grill:

Dang! I forgot to take a picture!  :o((

I had planned a quick stop at the grocery store and pharmacy before heading home for an interview.  More on that when I hear back.

I seriously thought that the weather would eat my trip to the store.  Well, even though they were calling for snow and ice, there were a few things that couldn't wait and we decided that I would pick up the pizza early.  Neither stop was as bad as I thought it might be.  Phew!

The snow started right after I got home and not long later this was the view out the studio window:


After dinner, I went upstairs for my Weekly Evening Art Zoom I worked on:


SATURDAY - It's LINK PARTY day for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge!  I hope you will join me in visiting Angela @ So Scrappy to see what the RSC Quilters have been up to this week.  I did a bit of PINK scrap sewing with this scrap left from a quilt binding:


While I was working on that project, Britt texted to see if I'd like to do an Art Zoom with her.  Once the quilt was done, I was more than happy to do some art for a little while:


I worked on the HIDDEN prompt for Junk Journal January:


Come back tomorrow to find out more about that PINK project I was working on today.

Until next time...
Get SCRAPPY!!

  1. Your recipes look yummy, Joy - I may need to try them! Have your snow flurries turned into any accumulation? Congratulations on your mini quilt being accepted into that exhibit - that's really neat! Hope your broken finger tolerated a little bit of sewing this week.

  5. How was the Lentil Potato Soup. I'm always looking for simple recipes for meatless meals. I'm glad you were able to finish your Project Quilting piece, althoough I can't quite figure out why that fabric is called dragon scales. Three cheers for being able to sew with the splint. This too shall pass.
