Red Strings--A Little Late--post 4

Red Strings

Angela chose red as the Rainbow Scrap Challenge (RSC) color last month. I was out of town so I didn't get more than piecing the red portions of the block sewn. Usually, I remember to photograph the string bag before I begin; but, I forgot. I'll blame jet lag on the omission! 

Rectangles and leftovers 

I did remember to photograph the bag after I had pieced all of the rectangles. That bag was stuffed before I began! Previously, I pieced the entire rectangle. This time I pieced the red section of all the rectangles. Then I pieced the black and gray corners. Piecing this way created less of a mess. 

Blue, red and green blocks

When I had four blocks completely pieced, I was curious what the blocks would look like together. I put four green and four blue blocks on the design wall. I liked the layout of four blocks in a color way. I wondered what more blocks would look like. I added the remaining blocks to the design wall.

All the blocks

Gertie, my inner squirrel, likes the plan. She wants me to sew four blocks of each color together. I agree with her! Eventually, I'll stitch the blocks. First, I want to catch up with pink as that is the color Angela has chosen as the RSC color for April.
