I’m a day late with my scrap items this week because I spent most of yesterday at IKEA. I needed another lamp. You know a little concentrated light for my Nina. I already use one with my Juki. The 59 year old eyes really appreciate it.
This month’s color is pink. I happen to like pink, which is funny because I never liked it when I was younger. The majority of my stash is pink, with lime green coming in a close second. Besides, remember I won that giveaway a bit ago, a box full of pink scraps.
First I made these randomly pieced blocks.
Then I made another one of these.
So now there are two. I’m thinking I will make 2 in each color and that should make a nice sized quilt at the end of the year.

LOVE these string blocks. Lucky you. winning a box of pink scraps. I love scraps, too. And string blocks.
I like the way you added the sashing in the string blocks, just makes them so happy!
Such nice bright pinks in the first blocks and subtler pinks in the strings. Lovely.
Pretty in pink! I love IKEA and am happy to have one close enough (2 hours) but far enough way to keep it from being a weekly visit. :o)
Loving those string blocks. That quilt is going to be awesome!
Two great pink blocks. How fun to win a box of scraps! Glad you are putting them to good use.
Beautiful scraps and colors! I've never been to IKEA....hmmmm......
Which light/lamp did you purchase from IKEA?
I love these squares and your color choices are delightful. I've been going through some of your posts and I am excited about following your creative journey and I hope that you will visit and want to be mutual followers. I am a late bloomer when it comes to quilting and have been doing most by hand quilting, but my last quilt is a Quilt As You Go. I saw it on You Tube and had to have a go at it.
Now, I'm going to look at more of your past posts.
Have a lovely day and I hope to hear from you. I've met the nicest people through blogging.
Your new blogging sister, Connie :)
