The change-over from June to July meant a switch for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge from sewing with pink scraps to dark blue scraps. I made Scrappy Bear Paw blocks in both colors this week. These are 14" blocks and are made from 2.5" squares.
I love putting all the blocks up on the wall together! The on-point setting really appeals to me, but it means I would have to figure out a plan for the side triangles. I will have to play with some ideas for that as we get closer to the end of the year.
I am linking up with the Rainbow Scrap Challenge on Saturday and with Oh Scrap! at Quilting is more fun than Housework on Sunday. I hope you are all staying well and getting lots of quilting done!

ReplyDeleteYour Bear's Paw is a beautiful choice for RSC...I love the blocks set on point. I'll be anxious to see what your final setting is. Glad I found your blog.

ReplyDeletePlenty of time to worry about the setting triangles. Enjoy the now!
Such pretty blocks, they look great up on the wall together.
ReplyDeleteThat is the thing with on point setting...they look FABULOUS But they do take extra figuring, lol!
ReplyDeleteJulie these are the most beautiful bear paw blocks! You are so good with color. I need to save this one so when I get back to quilting that I can make some like you have! So pretty! I get my eyelids done Friday. And will be able to see better and Clay is doing excellent with new Heart Valve! Yea. I have so many projects that have been on hold since December!
ReplyDeleteI love these blocks! It's so nice to see them in a new color every month.
ReplyDeleteNot only will you need to figure out the setting triangles but you'll also need to come up with a way to set 10 blocks. (Ten RSC colors plus the neutrals.) But I really like the intensity of color in each block!
ReplyDeleteLove these blocks and the on point setting really does set them off nicely. Thanks for sharing with Oh Scrap!
