| Making purple blocks |
Goal number one on my July
list was to make the blocks for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge. This month, Angela chose the color purple. When I pulled out the squares, I learned I was one set short. I made another set of four squares and constructed the blocks. I almost made a grave error as I almost forgot to stitch the squares along the selvage edge as I had only glued them! Whew, I avoided a journey that would not have been fun!!

That is a fun layout.
Good catch. Nice blocks! Gail at the cozy quilter
Your purples are so pretty with the green background fabric, Terry! I'm so glad you caught yourself before you skipped that sewing step. Is the glue supposed to wash away when you launder the finished quilt? That might cause a problem!
I never got into saving selvedges, are these all yours or you have friends that save for you?
Crisis averted. So glad to hear that you caught that you had not stitched the selvedges down before you went any further. These blocks are purplicious!
I've never used the selvage edges in a project. Nice job! Thanks for sharing in my Sew & Tell party.
