Singing the scrappy blues 9/14/13
For some reason, this month's Rainbow Scrap Challenge just isn't coming together like I had hoped. Last week I pulled together a good collection of baby blue scraps and strips and squares. I tried out a couple of ideas for what to make with all those bits and pieces, but none of the blocks I've made so far are making me happy. I just can't figure out where I am going.
The only real progress I have made is with my scrappy hexies. I basted about 50 or so hexies and have started joining them together. One snowflake is together, and I think I have enough hexies left to make a star with them.
You can see all sorts of wonderful ways that other quilters have been using their baby blue scraps this month at the Rainbow Scrap Challenge 2013.

I know what you mean--I have almost no pastels period--not even blues! I do like your hexies a lot. Nice work...hugs, Julierose
ReplyDeleteThe blue scraps are being problematic??? Maybe they just need some time to sort themselves out...put them in a bin and they will reproduce and give you more to work with (well, that's what happens in my scrap bins!)
ReplyDeletelove that icy blue snowflake
ReplyDeleteLove your light blue hexies. I had to search around for my light blue scraps and was surprised to see how many I was able to sort out.
ReplyDeleteWell, you could always mix in some darker blue........ I don't think anyone would mind! Love your snowflake.
ReplyDeleteYour hexies are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI like your hexie star. I'm with Deb, maybe mixing in some darker hues would give you the contrast you need.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty!
