RSC15 FIRST BLOCK


Here is the first block for RSC15 January Blues: It is called :"Scrappy Split Rail"
I feel it's kind of mushed colorwise; but I was able to cannibalize some old UFO's for a couple
more mid-blue strips...[Be unafraid--rip those seams!!;--))) ]

Even Mr. Moon is peering over his shoulder at those strange blue lip kisses....these are all Batik leftovers .....{I am quilter, see me roar}.....

 Hope you are all having fun in the blues this first Saturday.  
Linking with RSC15...

 Hugs, Julierose, La Blageuse

    Beautiful blues here. And I love your half hexagon/hexagon quilt. Why can't we comment on Hexagon Alley?

    Good luck with the no-buy plan! I need to take my stash a bit too, so I'm going to try very hard to be good. Mid blues are challenging for me as well.

    You have such interesting blues. Sorry for your UFO... was it beyond use? You know you can donate an ugly quilt. (Shhhh... don't tell anyone I said that. And you don't have to show us everything either. That's the great thing about blogging.) Love your Rail Fence, so far. I've only sorted out a few pieces to use, so far.
    Hugs

    Your blues are great. That will make a great scrappy quilt.

    Seems like I should comment something about "once in a blue moon" or "are you mooning me?" Rails are an excellent use for scraps...but cannibalizing UFOs????? Finish those up, girl!

    What absolutely gorgeous fabrics! I've always wanted to do a fail fence ... just not sure why I've never gotten around to it.

    Fun blues and I love to see it when you mix it up with cottons and the batiks.
