Rainbow Scrap Challenge-Purple


February is Purple month for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge at SoScrappy.  I decided to do the Turnstile block for my Row Quilt.  Each 6" block will use different fabrics.

I cut pieces for my scrappy stars but with little sewing time today, only one Turnstile block got sewn.  I'll spend some time kitting up a few of each block to use as leader/enders.  That sure makes the blocks go together fast.  I'll kit up the Dresden Plates block so it will be ready when I am ready.

See other great Scrappy Happy projects here at SoScrappy.

I had never heard of a Turnstile block before. I thought it was just a regular pinwheel until I took a closer look. Very cute!

Cute block. I like the "P S I love you" fabric. Where ever did you find it?

You are so smart to kit up your projects. I always wait till the last moment and then try to grab something to do as I am headed out the door.

Great start. Yes it takes time to kit up but then it goes faster. I felt the same way.
