ScrapHappy Saturday - RSC25 - Week 30

Welcome to Week 30 of the 2025 Rainbow Scrap Challenge!!  This week promises to be a busy one.  I've got meetings, work, and a project or two that I want to complete by the end of the month.  I can assure you that PURPLE scrap sewing should feature prominently.

Let's see what transpired...

SUNDAY - Weekly Morning Art Zoom was dedicated to our monthly Roll the Dice game with two sets of prompts...

Set #1 (Top) - Markers, watercolors, stitching, favorite supply/technique/tool, and something found

Set #2 (Bottom) - Papers, ink, floral, write it, and found words:

Britt and I stayed after to discuss logistics for an important meet-up:

After lunch, a little bit of PURPLE scrap sewing happened:

Check out Wednesday's entry for more details!

Later this afternoon, I met with Knittingsuek for our Weekly Zoom Call:

MONDAY - Day Off 

Groceries and a virtual art class with @tammykayeart started my day:

Lunch followed and then I returned to the studio for my Weekly Zoom Call with LeeAnna @ Not Afraid of Color.  Here we are sporting different shades of PURPLE in honor of our RSC Quilter friends:

After dinner I headed upstairs for tonight's Quilt Guild meeting via Zoom with modern quilt designer Tara Miller...

Coming to us from her Atlanta, Georgia studio, with her presentation on...

Guess what?!?!

I won her Zoom door prize and was able to choose a FREE pattern from the Quilt District web shop.  Which design would YOU have selected???  At first glance, I thought maybe her gorgeous Legacy Wheel, but that seem somewhat unrealistic, given my fabric preferences and project style.  My pick?  Well, I really debated about Churned Up because (as Britt said) that's right up my alley, but decided on Tara's project called Fan Girl:

Thank you, Tara!!!

After the meeting, I spent some time interpreting the CLOUD prompt for ICAD in collage:

TUESDAY - Day Off

I missed my Weekly Morning Art Zoom today.  Why???  Because shopping for a few new pieces to fit my still too thin frame was the task for the day.  Once that was done, I headed to Britt's house.  It was a multipurpose visit.  Some food, some art, and a quilt pick-up:

Thanks, B!

The PAISLEY prompt was made using a gel print scrap from Britt, while waiting for her to return from her chiropractic appointment:

WEDNESDAY - Wonderful Wednesday

Work

It was a busy day with a steady stream of customers throughout during my scheduled hours.

In neighborhood news...

I noticed a moving truck yesterday, but interpreted it as a neighbor having some work done since there was a handyman vehicle out front.  We later discovered that another house was occupied and this house in the cul-de-sac sold over the weekend:

THURSDAY - Work

Afterwards, I made progress on my PURPLE scrappy UFO by squaring up the quilt:

FRIDAY - TABLE SCRAPS Challenge

Day Off

Knit Group met this morning:

Lunch was followed by Get Messy's Open Studio with Deandra where I used tissue paper and a dictionary entry to create my CACTUS card for the Index-Card-A-Day challenge:

During my Weekly Evening Art Zoom I applied binding to Grape Candy Coated...

And knocked out the HORIZON prompt for ICAD in pen and colored pencils:

SATURDAY - Work

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.  Once this post goes live, I hope to be sitting at my machine to sew down the binding on my UFO.

Although, lunch and the NEW Get Messy Monthly Reflections Art Zoom may come first.  Later, I hope to Zoom with Knittingsuek.  We'll see how all that goes.

In other news...

I'm so relieved that Kristen @ Scrap Fabric Love received my block our Window Seats group quilt.  Here is the photo she shared on Scrap Club:

Until next time...

Get SCRAPPY!!
