I'm Done With Red!

And that's a good thing! That means that I have made all my RED blocks for this month's RSC! All 40 blocks are done, done and DONE! Now I can concentrate on other projects that really need my attention.
I only had to make 2 flower blocks this month and they went fast. I'm hoping I didn't make a mistake when I put this list together at the beginning of the year, and I will have enough blocks for a complete top at the end of the year!! Some months I have had to make at least 4! I am intentionally adding the appliqué WITH the grain of the strings and ACROSS the grain of the strings. And I am also trying to mix up the darks and lights on the border of each block, so they will be a little different. I am loving how they are coming out. If you are interested, Connie at Freemotion by the River has a tutorial on this block. I think I should have separated them a bit before I took the pic!!

You can see my Sept. RSC list on the lower right corner and they are all checked off!
I only had to make 2 more Scrappy Strings this week and I must have made 3 instead! When I put them all together, I have 13 instead of the 12 I needed. Guess I actually made 41 blocks this month!!

Then I started on a Secret project and this is all I will show for now!

Cording with Downton Abbey fabric! This project may take awhile because I am still trying to find the needed hardware to finish it. I HATE waiting for something to ship, especially if I have to PAY for shipping, and I HATE paying for shipping, but there was no way around this one!! Believe me, I looked everywhere!!
I'm linking to SoScrappy, so please go over and take a look at the other RED blocks being made this month. Lots of eye candy!
Thanks for stopping by!
