I am using another set of orphan blocks to make a small donation quilt. They are the Bonnie Hunter Crumble Jumble blocks leftover from RSC2022. Here is the blogpost about the quilts that I made with the monthly blocks. I only have a few holes to fill. I'm going for a 40 x 60 child's donation quilt this time...to fit a piece of backing I already have!
pattern: Bonnie Hunter Crumble Jumble block in her String Frenzy book.

Today is the first Saturday of June of the color baby blue and light green. I'm going rogue this month and using brown/beige as my color.
Time for my Happy Blocks.

Today I have finishes! Yay!
I put a new needle in the log arm and quilted down this quilt from March 2023. I blogged about this panel quilt here.
This year I mailed two quilts off to Em's Quilty Hugs for Cancer.
Quilt 1 is the orphan sailboat and sea bricks quilt.
The Mary's Rectangles and Breezy Windmills are filling in nicely. I'm actually kinda liking the mix of the two blocks. It's a good way to use both sets of orphan blocks. It helps that it's the rainbow color palette as the look of the blocks are very similar.
I changed a few blocks around and made a few more in different color ways.
I thought I was done piecing this quilt top. It's about 48 x 62 but...
it started whispering. Borders, borders, borders. So, I added a few borders. It's about 60 x 78 before quilting. The border is actually a leaf print but it just looks like multi-colored ovals.
Today is a somber Holiday in the USA. It's a day to Honor, Remember and Celebrate all in the Armed Services who gave their lives for the freedoms and liberties that we all enjoy in the USA.
A 'Thank You' to the families, friends and loved ones who gave their lives to defend the USA and beliefs!
I have another set of orphan blocks to share. I decided to join the Mary's Rectangle and Pinwheels into one quilt from the RSC2021, instead of making two separate quilts this time. I definitely over made blocks during 2021!
Today is the fourth Saturday of May of the color orange. One of the more challenging colors for me! I wonder 'what' June's color will be?! EDIT: Angela announce that dark and bright blue are the color prompt for June!
Time for my braid. I'm on the 'right' track but...not quite there yet. LOL...NOW I know how I end up with so many orphans in my sewing room!
My orphans have made friends!
The red and teal crumb hearts were orphans from one of my RSC2022 projects. I made green, gold and brown friends then added a few 4 patches and 9 patches in black and white and
Ta-Da! Orphans with New Friends!
Sara at My Sewing Room was right!
I decided to do a mix of the 4 patches and 9 patches. Mostly because it seems I keep finding more orphan blocks and I need to use them up!
pattern inspiration: found on Pinterest but it is a dead link.
