Rainbow Scrap Challenge

Over the years it seems a lot of bloggers I follow have participated in the Rainbow Scrap Challenge hosted by SoScrappy. This year I've decided to give it a go myself. 

Basically you make any block you want, in the colour selected for each month, and gradually build up a rainbow of blocks that hopefully turn into a quilt. I've decided to make Ivani's Heart Blocks, as they use very small pieces. Here's the link to Ivani's instructions.

 

January's colour is red.  Here are my first 2 heart blocks:

 

Although they are not really my first blocks, as I made some last year which will be a head start for future months:

 

There's a linkup here where you can see lots of red blocks happening: https://superscrappy.blogspot.com/2022/01/week-2-scraphappy-saturday.html

It might be too late for me to join the link-up this time, but at least I've started the challenge.

Hooray a new challenge! Like the idea that you choose your own block and know where you are heading. The staggered layout in your top photo gives an interesting woven look.

The heart blocks are so lovely--this will be such a pretty rainbow piece or center for a medallion (?)
hugs, Julierose

This is such a good idea. I have seen it on other blogs and sometimes think I should join in. I like your hearts!

Welcome to RSC and love your scrappy heart blocks! LOL, I am taking the same track with some of my blocks started last year --- bring along the old and add to it with the new. Should be fun!
