The End of June?

How is it the last Saturday of June already?  The weeks and months always seem to fly by, but this one has been especially speedy!

This week, while quilting along on this blue star -


I remembered that there was a chunk of that pretty blue with green flowers left, and decided it would work for my Tiny Tuesday Monkey Wrench block.


And here it is!

But what's that Tiny gray kitten doing in the picture?

I guess he wanted to join the blue Tiny blocks, so he climbed into a bright blue basket!  To really be a part of the crowd, he still needs his gray sashing, but I'm sure that will come along very soon.

For more info about kittens in baskets, check out Sally's post HERE.

June has been the month of dark blue for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge.

Glad there's time to sew with more blue scraps in July!

Your TT blocks get more creative every month. I didn't sew a stitch this week so I need to catch up on TT.

Seriously half of the year gone and we didn't even get in a full blink if you ask me!!! That was the perfect fabric for your little monkey wrench-too cute.

Lots of progress and so many interesting patterns. I really like the pop of the red polka dots in your blue string blocks.

Your TT blocks look great and that BONUS Kitty in a Basket is adorable! Thanks for sharing the link.

The blue fabric with the green flowers makes a delightful monkey wrench block. All your Tiny Tuesdays are delightful, for that matter!

You are doing quite well with your tiny blocks. The word "tiny" makes me nervous so I stuck with the strip blocks for all of my RSCs this year! I took the easy way out! LOL All of your blue projects are very impressive.
