Updates on Sewing Up My Fabric!

Since I originally posted my description of this blog, I have somewhat erred from my intention. I have actually bought much more fabric than I had but ................. in my defense, I got the solids at 50% off and the quilt shop fabric at 75% off, so that doesn't count, right? LOL

RSC16 -Teal is the June Color of the Month

RSC16 Column Quilt

I haven't joined my columns yet because I am not sure of the layout. 
I love the teals, but I always seem to be anxious to see the next color! 
The teals look nice on everyone's linky too.  I guess I must like teal. LOL

The link to the RSC16 QAL is on the right column of this blog. 
 Thank you Angela for your hard work.  I know how hard it must be to juggle family, work, and this QAL.

RSC16 - FOREST GREEN (not so much!)

RSC16     
I didn't have any "forest green" fabric so I substituted for a bright green.  Then..............I accidentally cut enough fabric for twice the geese I needed so I have two columns instead of one. 
The link to this QAL is on the right column of this blog.

QUILT ADDICTS ANONYMOUS QAL
The green stars are this month's blocks for the Quilt Addicts Anonymous QAL.  I am not using her suggested fabrics so the finish will be a little bit of a surprise. If you would like to see the quilt or join in the QAL, you may find it here.  http://www.quiltaddictsanonymous.com/block-of-the-month-2016/

PLAY WITH ME QAL
This is the 5th game board in the QAL.  You can find the link on the right side of this blog.

Play With Me 2016 - April Game Board


Play with Me 2016 QAL
I am trying to incorporate the RSC16 color of the month with my BOMs and QALs.
You can find the link to the RSC16 QAL and the Play with Me 2016 QAL on the right column of this blog. 
This one challenged me a bit.  It was suggested to to hand embroidery, but I have been wanting to explore my machine stitches, so I used this as an opportunity for that.  Some of the stitches really look different on fabric vs the screen on the sewing machine!

In keeping with the RSC16 color of the month, I made my backgammon board with purples and yellows.

RSC16 Updaates

RSC 16  Purples and Yellow
I made 12 purple butterflies, but when I put them in a column, they didn't look too much like anything, so I added a column and alternated my butterflies with 6-1/2" blocks. I plan to embroider antennae on them, but haven't done that yet.
The link for the RSC16 project can be found on the right side of this blog.


Quilt Addicts Annonymous BOM
Since I am trying to incorporate the RSC16 colors each month with my other BOMs, I now have 4 blocks done for the Quil Addicts Annonymous BOM.  I am really anxious to see how this is going to look when it is all put together.
