I am Back Again

I have been absent again. We have been vacationing again or I should say we had a family reunion on the 4th of July and was out of internet reach.
I was able to do some things in the Quilt Studio the week before the 4th but wasn't in town to blog about it on the week end.
We had a wonderful time up American Fork canyon and enjoyed the beautiful camp site with all of our children and grand children but one family that could not come up from Texas. We had 18 of our 21 grand children in attendance. They had fun swimming in the very cold river and also fishing in the same river. Our group site was located isolated away from other campers and so all the kids could wander around and we didn't have to worry about even the little ones getting run over by any cars. Fun! Fun! Fun!
I have been very busy working on the color red this month. This is a great time to work on my red and white quilt that has been languishing in the stash room for over a year. I have decided this is a perfect time to put this top together and have it completed by the end of the month.
I had all my red fabric tied up in making this quilt and so I wanted to free them up for all my blocks I have going for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge.
This is what my design wall looks like this week as I am putting the red and white quilt together.

These are the blocks I have completed so far this month.

This was my set up for the string blocks.

These are the string blocks I have done. There are 10 blocks along with the 2 1/2 by 6 1/2 leftovers.

I have also completed my 9-patches. There are 10 of these also.

I have yet to make my Craftsy blocks and will show them later but I have also completed many of the green 9-patch blocks as leader enders. Here they are.

I will be linking up with the Rainbow Scrap Challenge today. Please click here to see all the lovely projects that everyone is working on.
