I don't live in OKC I just saw it on the internet and since this seems to be my "year of the BOM" I thought I'd give it a go. I don't think that I quite have the idea of Modern though. |

Last BOM for February
February Sugar Block Club and Craftsy BOM 2012

BOM's and DH
Next, I did the 16 patches. |
Then on to what will be either a Rainbow Scrap Bargello or a Rainbow Scrappy Trip Around the World from Bonnie Hunter's Quiltville. |
The leftover 2 1/2 inch strips will become a Rainbow Strippie Jelly Roll Race style quilt at the end. |
Here's a wrap up of February's purple RSC. Top left, possible bargello, top right, 16 patches, bottom left possible trip around the world, middle right strippie, and bottom right snowballs and nine patches. If you want to enjoy lots of purples and maybe some pinks, go to Angela's blog, Soscrappy here. |
Another Craftsy class, this is the February lesson from the Craftsy BOM 2013. Brown, cheddar, green and purple for this one. I can only hope. |

Husband Still In Hospital
It was supposed to be an ablation of the heart on January 16, and a one or two day stay. That turned into open heart surgery, a pericardiectomy. Here it is January 29th and we are still here, hoping to go home soon, he is doing fairly well.

First Small Finish for the Year
January pink wrap-up - top left - could use the Rainbow Scrappy Trip Along blocks below for Rainbow Scrappy Bargello instead, top middle - future Rainbow Jelly Roll Race style strippie quilt, top right - 6" heart blocks, bottom left - Rainbow Scrappy Trip Along, bottom middle - Rainbow 16 patches, bottom right - Rainbow 9 patch and snowball blocks. If I hang in there until the end of the year I'll have 4 new rainbow quilts to show for my scrappy efforts. Not bad, and a big thank you to Angela at Soscrappy. |

More Pink Rainbow Scrap Challenge
This is getting scary, I can't seem to stop. I saw Edith's post here at Inch by Inch Quilting and then I had to make a ‘Scrappy Trip Along’, too. |
It occurred to me that the left overs from the strips would make a very interesting Jelly Roll Race quilt. I'm saving them for it. |

It Happened Again
I had good intentions of watching the Craftsy "Repiecing the Past", with Kaye England video when I got home from my husband's doctors appointment, but instead I replenished my 2 1/2" scrappy squares and started 4 of the block b's for my SV quilt. By that time DH was up from his long nap and we watched TV for awhile. I again started watching the video on my ipad and fell asleep. Oh well, I figured that I might as well finish my 4 blocks this morning, which I did. I also sewed them into quadrant 3. Only 8 more blocks to go and I'll be ready to put the quadrants all together and think about borders.

Another BOM and RSC - Pink
This is the January Block of the OKC Modern Quilters Guild I think that it was supposed to finish at 12.5 x 12.5, but I came up short on the sides and had to trim it to 12 x 12. Oh well, I'll deal with it in the coming months when I see how I mess up then, lol. |
I decided that it would be better to try to make 3 blocks a month for Angela's ScrapHappy Saturday, Rainbow Scrap Challenge 2013, so I added the block on the bottom. That would yield 36 blocks and a 72 x 72 quilt to start with and I can go from there with borders. Or I could go 5 x 7 and a 60 by 84 to start with. I have almost a whole year to decide.

Sugar Block Club and Craftsy BOM 2012 and 2013
I'm trying to catch up everything while my Easy Street rests, and so this is my January Sugar Block Club BOM. I plan on my colors being pale pink with polka dots background and red, blue and grey. Hopefully, I'll stick to it, but there is always the possibility that it will be completely scrappy by the end of the year. |
The plan is to remake the Craftsy BOM 2012 and add them to the Sugar Block club BOM to have a nice big queen sized quilt. One month down.
