brought to you by the colour purple

Linking up with SoScrappy’s Rainbow Scrap Challenge.
SoScrappy

Nothing like leaving it till the last minute. It is actually the first of July here but it’s still June in USA where the Rainbow Scrap Challenge originated so I’m fine!

I made four blocks yesterday and, to my surprise and delight, I have made another ten blocks this morning.

Two string blocks (6 1/2 inch unfinished)
2012 purple strings
and twelve improv blocks (6 1/2 inch unfinished).
2012 purple improv
That brings my totals to 56 improv blocks and 17 string blocks. That’s enough improv blocks to make a quilt although I don’t have any blue blocks yet (but I know what the colour for July is!)

    Your purple squares look wonderful! Great idea to use up those odd size pieces of scraps.
    Glad to have company at the end of the finishing line, LOL... ;) I just made it too.
    Looking forward to working with blues this month :))

    Wow you did get busy yesterday. Lots of pretty purples. I'm looking forward to seeing your rainbow quilts using these blocks.

    I'm ready to play with something blue for a month.

    I don't work much in purple so it would be a good lesson for me-you have done beautifully with these blocks-very good indeed!
