ScrapHappy Saturday - RSC25 - Week 12

WARNING:  Photo Heavy Post!!!

 

Welcome to Week 12 of the 2025 Rainbow Scrap Challenge!!  This week is my re-entry into the "real world" and I'm not sure what that will mean for my YELLOW scrap sewing.

Read on to find out...

SUNDAY - Recovery Day 9

Today's Weekly Morning Art Zoom was Dare to Roll.  The following prompts were provided - pens, inks, stitching, write it, make some collage fodder, and pocket in Set One.  The top half of the page below was my response:

For Set Two - fabric, sprays, stencils, write it, unique attachment, and tag were the prompts rolled.  The lower half of the page above is what I created.

Britt and I stayed to chat for a few minutes after the others left to go about their day:

I grabbed a quick lunch and headed back upstairs for the opening of the BB Bash with Brooke Henry:

MONDAY - Recovery Day 10

Happy St. Patrick's Day, friends!  I wore my hand knit green socks and...

Of course, I had my Shamrock Surprise jacket on when I went to the local thrift store for my first post-surgical drive.  It's close, so if the drive was terrible I could just turn around and head home:

This is what I made during this afternoon's BB Bash Live call:

The forsythia are blooming in North Carolina.  I thought I'd share a photo for my RSC Quilter friends: 

Since my test drive went well, I went to my Quilt Guild meeting tonight:

Our speaker was Susan Brubaker Knapp:

TUESDAY - #100Days100ItemsDecluttered

Day Off

This morning I did a load of laundry, which included the "fabric" purchased during yesterday's thrift shopping trip

While the clothes were waking, I  added the final stitches to my new blue socks: 

Once the laundry was dry, "processing" the shirt came next:

WEDNESDAY - Work

After work I made a quick stop at the grocery store and headed home for my Weekly Zoom Call with LeeAnna @ Not Afraid of Color:

Since I finished the sock I was knitting during my post-surgical recovery time, I decided to look for DK weight yarn for my next pair of socks.  I'm doing a test knit of the Lucky 13 Socks by my friend Tracy @onwoolenpond.  Here is the yarn I've chosen:

THURSDAY - Work

The construction crews at the neighborhood next door were busy today finishing up the roof on one of the two houses in the

cul-de-sac and I'm guessing the added the sidewalks, too:

While at work, I was wishing I was at home sewing.  Here's a bit of  (Firefly) YELLOW for my RSC Quilter friends.  It's one of several new colors available in our YETI offerings:

Art Zoom with Britt after dinner, since we both missed Curiosity Collective today and thought it might be nice to work on Meg's Daily Depth lesson together:

FRIDAY - Day Off

That meant that I spent the morning at Knit Group with these three friends:

It was Linda's last day, so I brought along my latest Quilted Yarn Bowl for her to take with her to her new home...

As we chatted, I hand wound the yarn selected for my next pair of socks...

It looks quite a bit different all wound up:

Later, during Get Messy's Open Studio time, I did the next step of Meg's lesson:

After dinner, I went upstairs for my Weekly Evening Art Zoom, where I cut the holes in the pages and put the finishing touches on the journal spread for Meg's lesson, including adding stitching to the page...

Then I added the leftover bits to a page in my Get Messy Hangout Journal:

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.  Here is the ONLY scrappy YELLOW sewing I did this week...

Your eyes are not deceiving you if all you see is a YELLOW starter/stopper.  The March Color of the Month just didn't work for the project I had in mind.  Perhaps, there will be more next week.

This afternoon, I finished off my week with a Zoom call with Knittingsuek:

Until next time...

Get SCRAPPY!!
