ScrapHappy Saturday - RSC25 - Week 6

Welcome to Week 6 of the 2025 Rainbow Scrap Challenge!!  This week is going to be a busy week.  Appointments, meetings, art, and sewing will all play a part in it. 

Read on to see how the days unfold...

SUNDAY - Weekly Morning Art Zoom found me slapping gesso on pages of several art journals.  Nothing remotely photo worthy.

MONDAY - Work

Work was followed by a surgical consult, as it turned out that my CT scan revealed chronic inflammation of my gallbladder and evidence of gall stones.  Surgery will be scheduled in a day or two.  Doctor is currently booking 4 - 6 weeks out.

In construction news, the next three SIX houses were landscaped today:


TUESDAY - Work...

Was followed by fabric and design choices for this week's Project QUILTING challenge entry:


WEDNESDAY - Day Off

I've got a thousand things to do today, but focused first on a quick trip to the grocery store.  As I headed out, I noticed that the sod was delivered this morning for the newly landscaped houses:


After putting the groceries away and eating a quick lunch, I did some BLUE scrap sewing while waiting for Zoom time.  Well... Once the squaring up was done, that is:


A bit of stitching was followed by my Weekly Zoom with LeeAnna @ Not Afraid of Color with more sewing on the horizon after our call was done:


THURSDAY - Day Off

I opted to attend my (Weekly) Quilt Group meeting, even though a scheduling conflict makes it so that I can only attend when we meet close to home.  Today's meeting was further away, but since Ruth B. was going to be there, I decided to go anyway because I haven't seen her in ages!  The few time she's hosted recently were work days for me.  Here is our group photo of those in attendance:


Once I returned home, I jumped right back into the BLUES: 


FRIDAY - Day Off

Knit Group.  We met with the following knitters in attendance...


When I got home, I had a quick lunch and went upstairs to login for Open Art Studio.  I worked on a bunch of random projects, including making a start on yesterday's lesson and finishing up my UNFOLD spread for Junk Journal January.  I'm pleased to mark another prompt as completed, but there are still others waiting from when I fell behind: 


After dinner, I attended my Weekly Evening Art Zoom.  I was pleased to finish up the FABRIC prompt for Junk Journal January that I (finally) started arranging this afternoon:


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.

Yes. I did some BLUE scrap sewing this week.  Check back tomorrow to see what came of my efforts and which of these backing scraps made the cut:


Until next time...
Get SCRAPPY!!

  1. A busy week. So glad the surgery is scheduled. I might have pulled a fabric perfect for this months prompt! =)

  2. Best wishes for a safe and successful surgery. My gallbladder came out yesterday and I'm in recovery mode today.

  3. Your blue spinning block turned out great. I love the two shades together. As for the delivered sod, at least it's fairly quiet work for getting that laid. Have a fun, scrappy weekend!

  4. Having landscaping done for those new houses has to improve the look of the whole neighborhood. I'm thinking your blue sewing this week looks quite interesting.

  5. I get a bit tired just reading everything you did, Joy! You are going good, considering the medical aspects you have going on. I enjoyed seeing your pink and your blue scraps.
