Welcome to Week 24 of the 2026 Rainbow Scrap Challenge!! This week is going to be another full one. Guest prep. errands, classes, and meetings are scheduled. The question remains... Will I be able to fit in any PASTEL scrap sewing???
Only time will tell, but here is how my days passed...
SUNDAY - During Weekly Morning Art Zoom, I worked on my POMEGRANATE prompt for ICAD using an image from my car's tissue cylinder. The color was scribbled beneath the tissue paper used for the tracing with two types of crayon:
In neighborhood news...
New neighbors moved in yesterday:
MONDAY - Serious Guest Prep
I stopped to attend this week's Library Crawl at Get Messy. Today we went back to the Season of Promise with the 3-2-1 Challenge from Dayle Bennett. Here is the resulting journal page made using 3 colors, 2 words, and 1 image:
When that was done, I went downstairs to grab a cup of tea before my Weekly Zoom Call with LeeAnna @ Not Afraid of Color:
TUESDAY - Final Guest Prep
After picking up a last minute grocery order, I spent some time with my Tuesday Explorer friends at Get Messy while waiting for our guests to arrive. My YEARBOOK card for ICAD was the result of the day's efforts:
WEDNESDAY - Shopping Day
I missed Midweek Meetup, in favor of going shopping with my SIL:
In neighborhoods news...
Schools out! You know what that means? More new neighbors moved in today:
A while later...
Two additional trucks rolled in down the street from us with more new neighbors:
Before the rains came...
There was a bit of brotherly bonding:
THURSDAY - Weekly Quilt Group met at Cheryl's today, without me, as our visitors weren't leaving until mid afternoon:
After a relaxing cup of tea, I headed up to the studio where Britt and I...
Enjoyed a Zoom-y ARTventure. Today we worked on ICAD. My focus was on adding the MIXED MEDIA theme to my weekly prompt card:
FRIDAY - Knit Group
When it was time to leave, I grabbed a bite to eat before Get Messy's Friday Friends Open Studio. Today I altered a book image for the PARTERRE prompt for ICAD:
During the late afternoon, I returned to the studio to work on this month's Get Messy lesson:
After dinner, I headed back upstairs to visit with my Weekly Evening Art Zoom friends. I decided to work on the FACES prompt for Messy May that I skipped last month. I probably should have started with a pencil sketch, but opted to jump right in with my Tombow markers - swatch added in the top left:
My apologies to the Harper's Bazaar model! I didn't intend to make her look like she has the mumps. Please know that after the photo was taken, I plumped up her lips a little.
SATURDAY - It's LINK PARTY day for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge! I hope you have a chance to visit Angela @ So Scrappy to see what the RSC Quilters have been up to this week.
To answer the question at the beginning of this post...
YES and NO!!
What I did with PASTEL scraps in Light Blue, Light Pink and/or Light Green this week was get out this UFO quilt to contemplate a path to finishing it. Sorry! Nothing yet, but here's a peek at the project in its partially completed state:
Until next time...
Get SCRAPPY!!
