More on the pale side of things

Welcome to my Block Parade

I was able to get four more neutral blocks done for my "Gypsy Style" quilt while DH and SIL were out running errands yesterday.  (I wrote about the first batch of blocks here.)  These are all 5".

Puss in the Corner II - 5"
Red Cross II - 5"
Strength in Union - 5"

Zigzag - 5"
All the block names are from 501 Rotary-Cut Quilt Blocks.  


Having everything cut and kitted ahead of time has been a good plan so I think I will continue that way -- maybe spend a day cutting 10 blocks, then work on a couple every day.

Because these are scrappy AND neutral, I'll be linking up with ScrapHappy Saturday.

  5. SEW glad to see that you were able to work on your RSC project while helping your SIL. Since she was out running errands with Mr. Hillside, I hope that means she is doing better every day!
