Whoosh - Yellow is ( was) the color of the month for our Rainbow Scrap Challenge ... and it almost got the best of me - but I won!!!!
I got my Yellow Spinning Goose block finished - right under the wire!!!
I had a hard time finding fabrics, as my sewing room has sort of been taken over with things I have moved out of my parents house. We actually are listing the house for sale on Friday and I just piled things... so this was the Yellow I could get to - and!! I really like it!! - A little different vibe than some of my other plaids..
Now I need to get my sort/organize/ and donate mojo back!!!
Oh!! Also - I might have had a *squirrel*
Remember those Gingham/Buffalo plaid quilts that you can make real quick? I used the Pattern from Quilters Candy - it makes a 55 x 65 inch quilt.
I had this brilliant idea of using a Blue, a Yellow and A stripe. When they lay next to each other - I thought - oh those will be cool.... but when I put them together - I am not 100% sure that they worked the way I had planned it - but I like the way they came together haha!
Anyways - It made me happy because it is ONE thing that I could completely finish 😂🤣😂
This Yellow works for August RSC too - in my mind! ( which proves I haven't lost my mind yet, but I might be close !)
I will be linking up with
- Needle and Thread Thursday at My Quilt Infatuation
- Finished ( or not) Friday at Alycia Quilts
- Rainbow Scrap Challenge at SoScrappy
I really like the Spinning Goose block.
ReplyDeleteThat yellow stripe looks really cool in those flying geese. Hope the house sells quickly and you get back your decluttering mojo.
ReplyDeleteNice job on both quilts! Yellow isn't an easy color to work into a quilt!
ReplyDeleteYour yellow Spinning Goose looks great, and I love the blue and yellow quilt, too. A patchwork of squares is always fun. Good luck with selling your parents' house and sorting through the stuff. That's such a huge and emotional job, but you've got this!
ReplyDeleteWhat a huge milestone to be listing your parents home for sale; good luck and I hope that you find great buyers quickly. Your block looks great to me and the quilt top is fun!
ReplyDeleteLove it all! The Spinning Geese block is great! and the blue and yellow - well I've wanted to make one for decades for my sis-in-law and hubby. She likes blue and he likes yellow. So thanks for the inspiration.
ReplyDeleteAnother great spinning geese block done. Yeah you!
ReplyDeleteYour yellow Spinning Goose turned out great. And so did that simple quilt. It lets the colors be the star.
ReplyDeleteBest of luck with that house sale. Cleaning out my parents' house and prepping for the estate sale - so much work! And very hard. I'm an only child, but luckily had a cousin that helped me a lot. And I was young and stupid about things too - only 36.
I may have to try one of these some day. Looks great.
ReplyDeleteGreat use of YELLOW for the last week of August's RSC, Alycia! Best of luck with the sale of your parent's house. Hope you find you declutter mojo soon so you can find things easier in the sewing room!
