I got started on another of my RSC2022 projects this week. It’s called On the Move by Melissa Corry. I’m doing the remix on her blog using the Charming Baby Quilts book. I’m only showing the long red arrow, but I did all the cutting & planning, plus sewed all the HSTs.
Here are the first stars for Dancing Stars by Amy Ellis. They are labor intensive so there are a few more reds to make next week. I think I need to make one every other day of the month going forward so I don’t get bogged down. They’re super cute, though! I saw someone making these last year for RSC & fell in love. The pattern is free for signing up for Amy’s newsletter.
I decided what to do with those four Amy Ellis Scraps blocks I made last week. I made 24 more red blocks this week, then I will set them aside and make 28 Options blocks in gray and low-volumes to alternate in a quilt. The beauty of taking a photo is that you notice the one block you made backwards, so yes, I fixed it!
In other sewing this week, I got back to the Judy Martin log cabin hearts, finishing four blocks. I have 3/4 of a coral heart plus 1/4 of a cream heart. They are stunning on the design wall, but they take a while to piece.
I have one more red project to work on next week and then I will have all my reds done. How is your month going?

Aren’t the Dancing Star blocks lovely? Yours look so nice in red. One of my goals for this year is to finish my blocks, happy stitching!

Love your Dancing Star blocks! They are striking. I’m looking forward to seeing the rest of the quilt with the arrow.
