began with finishing up two more split 9 patch blocks in purple, so there are four for the month.
This week I added in some little penguins on purple!
I'm really liking this layout for the split 9s, so maybe this is what I will end up with at the end of the year. This makes an 18 inch block, when the four are sewn together.
And a start on my April Table Scraps project - it's ready for the binding!
Along the way, I've also worked on house block #3 for the Rainbow Neighbourhood QAL. It's a pink-themed house!
I have to make some decisions about the windows and door section,
but once that is figured out it won't take long to sew these sections together.

I love the mix of purples -- red-purple and blue-purple -- in your split-9 blocks. And I'm a fan of the arrangement, as well.
ReplyDeleteThose split 9 patch blocks are really fun. I like your proposed setting for those. The tulip block for your house is really cute. Happy stitching this weekend.
ReplyDeleteI really like that layout for your split 9s! The colors look great together.
ReplyDeletelove that purple block! I will need to keep that one mind
ReplyDeleteI love big blocks and I cannot lie. 18" sounds so good :-)
ReplyDeleteYou have such pretty fabrics - excellent taste, I must say ;-)
Fun projects in progress!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful purple scraps!
ReplyDeleteYour purple scraps stitched into beautiful blocks!
ReplyDeletePretty purple blocks, and I love your little pink house!
ReplyDeleteLove the split nines and your houses are sew pretty.
ReplyDeleteYou know I love split nines, and yours are so cute and lively this week! And my heart is melting over that adorable pink house! Way to rock it, Diann!!
ReplyDeleteAll looking beautiful, Diann.
ReplyDeleteI love that setting with your split nine patches.
ReplyDeleteI started doing split nine patches last year (or maybe the year before). I've pretty much fallen off the wagon on RSC and really need to pull them all out and see which colors they are missing. Of course, if the weather ever warms up, I'll be working outside. I saw you commented elsewhere that you have snow on the ground again. I know it's still April, but really, it's time for spring.

Those little penguins are so cute in the blocks. A fun surprise.
ReplyDeleteI too love that layout for a split 9-patch block. Lovely purple prints in there. Love the tulips in the house block. Too cute. Enjoy! ;^)
ReplyDeleteSweet tulips dancing in the window box of your house block. Those Split Nines are going to be very versatile. Will be fun to see how you end up setting them.
ReplyDeleteLovely purple scraps and I agree the 18" split nine patch block has a pretty layout. Your 3rd house block is looking beautiful.
ReplyDeleteWell I think I squealed when I saw your pink house! I am in love with how you are all personalizing the quilt! I thought I had a myriad of options, but then you ladies are taking it to yet another level! Loving the purple projects too - I really enjoyed working with my purples this month.
ReplyDeletePretty PURPLE scraps in your Split 9P blocks, Diann, and I can't WAIT to see what you've made for this month's ABC (Table) SCRAPS Challenge!!!
