In the Pink

This has been a great month for playing with my pink scraps! That is the assigned color for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge this month. I started out making lots of bowtie blocks in pinks (plus yellows, aquas, and a few lavendars.) You can see my bowtie quilt top here.

 I have also been stitching pink hexies, and I am getting close to having both a star and a snowflake assembled.


We had another "snow day" this week which gave me time to make some pink Lemoyne stars. These will join the blue LeMoyne stars from last month.


Check out the Rainbow Scrap Challenge posts every Saturday to see how others are using up their scraps. So many beautiful projects! I am also linking up to the Hexie Weekend at A Quilting Reader's Garden, and I just made it in time for the In Hand EPP Link Party at splish splash stash.

    Still loving those stars and snowflakes! The Lemoyne stars are awesome... I really need to play with my inklingo and see if I can make some too.

    Are you hand-piecing the Lemoine Stars? They look great and I love both of the background fabrics!

      No, I am piecing the LeMoyne stars on the machine. They are a little fussy, but I love the way they look.

    Cute baby quilt. Bow ties are a good and easy use for scraps. I'll have to remember that.

    And...Oh, my...those LeMoyne stars are just gorgeous and so are those hexies.
