ScrapHappy Saturday - Week 5 Wrapping up Red

 

I hope that you have all made great progress on your red scraps.  It is time to start thinking about finishing up with red and getting ready to pull out your aqua and teal collection.   I have to admit being addicted to these transitional colors mixing blue and green since we've moved to the beach.  I've done about as much with red as I can for now.   Starting from the top: Bullseye blocks, Carpenter Star, Tiny Log Cabins, Blackford Beauty, 6 inch crumb blocks and 4.5 inch postage stamps.   
These red cross transition blocks might be at an end for this month as well, not because I am out of red, but because I have used up all the random scrappy 16 patches for now.   
Please share your red progress for the month.  Looking forward to enjoying some warm tropical ocean colors -- outside is chilly right now!

Your wall of red scrappy blocks is fantastic! I'm looking forward to the teal/turquoise/aqua month. It's always one of my favorites!

Will you continue with the red cross transition blocks for the entire quilt?
Your January red diging wall looks fantastic. Full of beautiful blocks, sounds like you had a lot of sewing fun.
Let's go for aqua and teal!

I finally found the right backing fabric for one more quilt I want to work on, so I need to use up some more red this week, but then aqua it is! Looking forward to some beachy colors!

Minus 20 degrees here today... too cold to go outside for any reason! Best to stay inside and sew!
Looking forward to aqua month!

You have a beautiful red collection! Love that Carpenter's Star especially. Thanks for hosting this wonderful challenge. It gives us such a fun way to dig into the scraps and find new ways to showcase color.

Its lovely and hot here where I live Angela, its Summer!
I'm away from home on holiday so wont be able to get to the next colour for a couple of weeks, guess I'll have some catching up to do.

This is my first time doing the rsc. Thank you for the inspiration! I don’t have a blog so can’t show you what your blog got me doing. I have the start of 5 rainbow quilts. Thank you!

Is the color for February Aqua/Teal? I've seen it mentioned on other blogs, but not here yet. Have I missed it?
