RSC Week 37 - September is Aqua + RSC August was Yellow

 Hello, dear readers and followers! 
Days & weeks seem to keep me busy with other stuff than blogging. The last months have kept me busy making Advent Calendars for my Etsy shop. I've made some new calendars this year and some that sold out last year. I'm almost done! I was not going to make any fall items this year, but ended up making some small items.

In between making Advent Calendars, I've kept up with the RSC, the Rainbow Scrap Challenge.
RSC color for September is Aqua. I knew I don't have more then a few aqua. What to do? I figured out I can use a variety of aqua, turquoise and teal. That is how the blocks for the Swirling Stars Quilt were made

(OOPS! I forgot ironing before taking the photos!)

The RSC color for August was Yellow, and here they are

The small ones

Now I have all the blocks for the Swirling Stars Quilt, in the following colors: purple, green, blue, pink, orange, red, yellow and aqua/teal/turquoise. 8 big blocks and 16 small blocks. They will be set aside for some time while I'm working on more items for my shop

Linking up with Angela and the Rainbow Scrap Challenge (RSC 2023)

Hello Astrid, I've certainly missed your RSC posts lately, so I'm pleased you are back. Great work on your pretty blocks.

I like that star pattern. I had checked your blog awhile back to see if you had stopped blogging and then thought maybe you were taking a break. Sounds like your etsy shop will be full again.

You managed to do a great job with the Aqua stars, even if you didn't have many Aqua fabrics. Bravo! ;^)

The Swirling Star blocks are beautiful. Love how versatile they're going to be. Have a great weekend!
