Brown--Rainbow Scrap Challenge

Brown selvages
Goal number nine on my November list was to catch up with the blocks for the 2024 Rainbow Scrap Challenge (RSC). I wasn't able to make the brown blocks last month so I put them on the list for this month. I didn't think that I had enough "brown" selvages as brown is not a color I often use in my projects.

Some of the selvages
I pulled selvages that were some shade of brown. I decided that I had enough so I cut some selvages to length and began gluing them into blocks.

Lots of segments ready for stitching
I began gluing the bits together. It wasn't too long and I had a bunch ready for stitching.

A few selvages
This is the first activity I've done since my knee surgery on October 1. I needed to take a lot of breaks. in fact, I waited a day to do the actual stitching!

A few more selvages
It felt great to be back in the studio! Linking to Alycia and Finished or Not Friday and Angela at So Scrappy.

Yay for being back in the studio. Stitching is therapeutic so now your knee will heal faster. (Fingers crossed) Enjoy! ;^)
