2022 Rainbow Scrap Challenge tops completed!
This year I decided to sew 9 patch blocks with the Rainbow Scrap Challenge. I had other blocks I was also sewing, but after March I gave up. I decided to sew at least 17 blocks of each color so I could make a big quilt. I decided to only have rainbow colors, no gray, black or browns. I had also sewed neutral 9 patch blocks to go with the rainbow blocks. But once I laid out the quilt to sew it, I felt like it was just way too busy. So I cut up some 5" neutral squares and it calmed things down. I ended up sewing a bigger throw size and had plenty left over to make a baby quilt.
I will probably keep the bigger quilt and donate the little baby quilt. My oldest likes the bigger one and you know how it goes when a family member likes a quilt top!
Havent you done well, two pretty rainbow quilts! But I must ask, what are your plans for those u used neuatrsl blocks you stitched? I'm sure you will come up with a good idea sooner or later.
