Forward movement on my projects for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge has been a little slow, but I did manage to finish off my set of Hollow 9-Patch blocks for this month. I'm making these from 2.5" squares, and the blocks will finish at 6".
I love making these very easy blocks that are a wonderful showcase for so many different fabrics!
There's just over a week left in June, and I hope to finish up at least two more sets of blue blocks for the month. It's expected to be quite hot here all week, which helps keep me inside and quilting.
Be sure to check out all of the wonderful scrappy projects at the Rainbow Scrap Challenge every Saturday and Oh Scrap! over at Quilting is more fun than Housework on Sunday.
Happy quilting everyone!

It's fun to re-visit all the prints when you sew the blocks. Stay cool!
ReplyDeleteSo much variety in those blue squares - makes awesome blocks!
ReplyDeleteHear, hear, Julie! I completely agree with your assessment. Those easy blocks are definitely "a wonderful showcase for so many different fabrics!"
ReplyDeleteLove these! It's fun to do some easy sewing & play with much-loved scraps.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun scrappy project. It has been hot, staying in and stitching is definitely good for ones health.
ReplyDeleteHollow 9-Patch blocks look very interesting. Love the centers as well as the varied outsides! Keep on stitching. The heat will break and there will be other things that will need tending to.
ReplyDeletenice 9 patches. I did that one year with the color of the month and most turned into many doll blankets
