ScrapHappy Saturday - RSC26 - Week 29

Welcome to Week 29 of the 2026 Rainbow Scrap Challenge!!  This week has all the usual errands, classes, and meetings on the calendar.  I hope to do a bit of AQUA scrap sewing, but only time will tell if that will actually happen:

Let's see how my week panned out...

SUNDAY - During Weekly Morning Art Zoom, I worked on the DIAGONAL prompt for ICAD with a mix of paper and a scrap of selvage fabric from Britt...

Then circled back to Day 15 of Messy May because I finally found an image of some dirt for the EXCAVATION prompt:

MONDAY - Art Day

At this week's Library Crawl over on Get Messy, I added a portrait into my journal from a class by artist Jane Davenport...

The face sparked a memory so I took an explore through last year's journals and found another iteration from the same class in an entry from April 2025:

In the late afternoon I met with LeeAnna @ Not Afraid of Color for our Weekly Zoom Call:

TUESDAY - Stay at Home Day

Some AQUA (teal and turquoise) scrap sewing filled a portion of my morning:

This afternoon, I visited with my Tuesday Explorers friends at Get Messy.  This month's "Playing in the Garden" lesson with Johanna Clough was today's focus:

WEDNESDAY - Art Day

I was the only one who showed up for Midweek Meetup so I assembled the background for the BEATLES' SONG prompt for ICAD...

And watched a few of the Make Create Express Taster Sessions.

Later...

I joined my friend Belinda for our biweekly Watercolor Zoom:

I worked on embellishing this abstract watercolor piece to complement the flower painting on the opposite side of the page shared in last week's Wednesday entry:

Once that was finished, I circled back to the Index Card a Day challenge and completed the lettering on that Hey Jude card shown above.

THURSDAY - Quilt/Art Day

Weekly Quilt Group met at Ella's today.  It's closer to my house so after lunch I headed to Britt's via Zoom...

Scouring a children's dictionary provided the following photo for the GAMEBOARD prompt for ICAD, but it begged for a background.  An old Southern Living magazine provided just the right image to complete the scene:

FRIDAY - Knit Group

We met at Beth's house, but Tracy didn't get the message so there were only three of us:

Once home and fed, I headed upstairs for Get Messy's Friday Friends Open Studio.  I started on the BACKGAMMON prompt for ICAD and during Deandra's Art Zoom I marked off the triangles and painted them.  The game pieces were cut out and applied later:

As I enjoyed time with my Weekly Evening Art Zoom friends.  I also mapped out my HARMONY card...

Along with a quick collage for the LIGHT & SHADOW prompt for ICAD:

SATURDAY - It's LINK PARTY day for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge!  I hope you will stop by for a visit Angela @ So Scrappy to see what the RSC Quilters have been up to this week.  In case you've got the following question circling your brain...

What about your AQUA scraps, Joyful???

I stitched a new AQUA table topper this week using bits remaining from the project of a friend, selected a leftover strip set for backing and found a scrap of batting that was just the right size and now it's ready to layer and quilt:

Until next time...

Get SCRAPPY!!
