HAPPY MARCH!
It's the first Saturday in March and many of us are ready for RSC (Rainbow Scrap Challenge) show and tell. Angela at SuperScrappy has chosen YELLOW for spring!
I prefer doing the RSC blocks at the beginning of each month, after Angela has chosen the color. When they are done, I'm 'free' to do whatever.
My goal this year is to finish some UFOs, so let's see how that works out his month.
I had almost forgotten I'm doing Pat Sloan's '182 Day Solstice Challenge'!
The blocks are different sizes; smallest are 12-1/2", biggest is 32-1/2", and a few other sizes in between. There are 19 of the smallest size - 12-1/2" - I made 13 last year.
I have put off the bigger blocks, waiting for the 'right' color.
Solstice, what color comes to your mind? I'm thinking Summer Solstice; YELLOW!
The center block is called 'Among the Stars'.
Summer Solstice & Stars = YELLOW!
Among the Stars - Block 9/25
Block measures 32-1/2" / 82.5 cm square
I kept it to SPRING
Spring fever - block 17/25
Other yellow scrap blocks
Coffee with Dad - 4 blocks
...and it happened I had a yellow cat too!
5 Scrappy blocks
Does any of you know what this block is called?
2 blocks for Eclipse
(House cores are calling, I'll make a few more later)
Linking up with Angela and RSC (Rainbow Scrap Challenge)
Rainy and windy all week while cyclone 'Garance' was in the area. We got 'cyclone warning class #3', which means most of the island were shut down. Its center passed about 136 miles / 220 km to the west on the nearest point. Yesterday the cyclone warning was lifted and we had the most cyclonic conditions with gusts up to 62 mph / 100 kmh with heavy rain and thunderstorms! Go figure! The neighbor island Reunion got it very bad as it passed very close to the coast with gusts at 142 mph / 230 kmh.

You are doing lovely blocks with your yellows, Astrid .
So glad you are safe! Must admit yellow isn't my favouritist (I know that's not a real word but it fits!) of colours but seeing some sunshine is a good thing right now.
Great blocks with yellow, Astrid! I really love that Star. And isn’t it amazing how the colors and name of Eclipse can turn a standard Drunkard’s Path block into an eclipse? Blew my mind! So sorry about the nasty weather. Hopefully more sunny days filled with yellow are on the way for you!
Your blocks all look great in yellow, Astrid! I love the cat. I'm so sorry you're dealing with cyclone weather, though - stay safe!
