So, yesterday was sort of a day to 'catch up'; it was the 7th day of a new month and I had yet to work on my RSC (Rainbow Scrap Challenge). I mistakenly thought that I didn't have enough Oranges left after using them on the crayon quilt top
but I found a fat quarter of Orange that was left from my two Dragonfly quilts and another loose fat quarter of a burnt orange.... enough to do these...
and I didn't even have to use either of the orange fat quarters that I bought last week - just in case -.
Doing the four foxes didn't take all that long; I was able to chain piece and do all four at the same time. The bunnies are another story... One of them takes roughly an hour - and that's if you don't make any mistakes that have to be undone and fixed (ask me how I know) - I cropped the wrong side of the base of one of the ears and was afraid that I didn't have enough of the burnt orange to fix it.. luckily, I just barely had it.
There were some pieces left over from the second bunny, but not enough to make a third one and I don't think I'd want to mix the fat quarters purchased last week with this burnt orange - it might look kinda weird. And I only wanted to make two bunnies a month, at the most. I still have some catching up to do on them... only two or three months are done. At least I stuck the required fabric for the month into the bin with the pattern and background fabric; I just have to put my mind (and body) to it and get caught up.
Ok, now I'm off to my sewing room to see what I can get done today.
take care...
