2022 has not brought me as much time to sew as I would like so far, but I couldn’t resist sneaking in another sew-a-long.
Over the last couple of years, I’ve watched several of you do the Rainbow Scrap Challenge, and I decided this year is the year to join in. January’s colour is Red, so I dug through my scrap bin, got out some graph paper, and came up with this big beauty.
Because my sewing time is more limited, I decided to do just one block each month. To compensate for that, I made it big one. This a a modified carpenter star, and it’s 16.5″ big. At the end of the year, I’ll have 12 of them, and with some sashing and a border, it will be enough for a good-sized lap quilt.

That quilt block is stunning! It would look good in a frame too, hanging on a wall.

I like that design a lot. Very pretty! (I think red should have been saved for a February block, but what do I know?? – LOL)

That is such a beautiful block! Your red fabrics just stand out so much with the white background. You have the beginnings of another awesome quilt. I think you get a lot of sewing done.

What a pretty block. Your points are so sharp and neat. I like all of the fabrics too. Will all of the blocks be the same pattern or different ones for each color.
Blessings,
