February Rainbow Scrap Challenge

RSC16 

I am so excited to be playing along with this year's Rainbow Scrap Challenge.  So, excited that I am working on four different quilts for the  challenge.  I had so much fun last month with the color blue.  Check here for the post on last month's blocks.

February's Rainbow Scrap Challenge color is brown, with touches of pink.

 Brown just didn't work for me in any of the quilts.  So, I decided to use the colors in my February comfort quilt.  I had a lot of brown and pink fabrics lingering in my stash that I was no longer in love with, and some fabric given to me by friends that I just didn't love.  I knew that some little cuties would love these fabrics so, I got to work.

First, I pulled some brown and pink fabrics that needed to be used up:


Then, I drew up a quick plan.  Super simple and fun.


Then, I started sewing up those blocks:


Before I knew it, I had enough blocks for 2 little quilts!


 I used even more of the scraps making scrappy bindings.
They each finished about 41 x 54 inches.

I am so excited to have used up some stash, and have TWO quilts this month to donate.  Success!!

Thanks for stopping by!

  4. I wish I had taken her advice and mixed pink in with my browns. It makes a stunning color combination for a quilt.

  6. Beautifully done! I'm not typically a pink or brown fan. . . BUT the combo in these quilts is a smashing hit! They are both sure to be loved to bits!
