The next step is framing the blocks. I am alternating pink and brown tilted frames on each block. Half of them have been finished so far, and I hope to get the rest done this weekend.

Pink UFO Sighting
It's pink month over at the Rainbow Scrap Challenge, the weekly color-themed, scrap-busting link up. Besides making the blocks for my ongoing RSC projects, I have been spending some time on a pink UFO. Last weekend I made four more of the pink and brown Shooting Stars blocks, bringing my total number of blocks up to 12, enough for a throw quilt. Here are two of the newest blocks. You can find a tutorial for this pattern at Anyone Can Quilt.
The next step is framing the blocks. I am alternating pink and brown tilted frames on each block. Half of them have been finished so far, and I hope to get the rest done this weekend.
Be sure to check out all of the wonderful scrappy projects at the Rainbow Scrap Challenge every Saturday and at Oh Scrap! over at Quilting is more fun than Housework on Sunday.

Your blocks are lovely! I made my first two in red/white/blue yesterday, and I love them!
ReplyDeleteWow, really incredible blocks! Excellent piecing! (It would match my bedroom)
ReplyDeleteThose are really eye-catching blocks! Yours are so lovely. Thanks for the link.
ReplyDeleteThese are beautiful! I just love that flamingo print fabric you used too!
ReplyDeleteIt is turning out to be a wonderful quilt. The colors are unusual, but they are just right for all the movement you've got going with the tilted blocks. Keep up the good work!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the link to the tutorial for the block you are making! It looks like it takes a LOT of concentration. Needless to say, I won't be making any of those until after the boys go back to school!!
ReplyDeleteThose are impressive shooting stars! What a wonderful quilt that will be.
ReplyDeleteGosh I've never seen this block before and it really effective. I'm sure they will make up into an amazing quilt.
ReplyDeleteYou are very industrious! Those blocks look so complicated and you are doing a beautiful job on them.
ReplyDeleteThat's the block I learned in Wink & a Smile. "Shooting Star" makes much more sense! Haven't seen them set wonky before; I like it.
ReplyDeletePS: and thank you for the link to the tutorial. I am frequently asked about that star block; now I have a place to send themn.
ReplyDeleteI love this star and yours sure do sparkle. Great job! ;^)
ReplyDeleteA wonderful setting for your blocks. I think this quilt is going to be stunning. Thanks for sharing with Oh Scrap!
