Total Purple 2020RSC blocks

 Last Saturday in August - where has this month gone?

I never have many purple fabrics or scraps in my stash so I am surprised how many blocks I have been able to make.


From top to bottom: 1.5” 49 patch block with a Roman Stripe block either side,

                                  13 x Ticky Tacky houses 

                                   2 of each my the three sizes of Sailing Boats.

Linking up with Angela’s So scrappy blog

  1. What a boat load of purple pretties! Looks like you are just having too much fun with your fabrics. I just love that wave fabric under the boat on the bottom right.

    1. Thanks, Cathy. Yes I like the wave patterned fabric too. However it catches me out with the flippy corners of the boat riding on the waves, though because I often find the waves are going vertically. However, I choose to ignore the mistakes and leave it as it is.

    1. Thank you. Yes, I had to cut into a couple of new purple FQs I had bought to bump up my purple stash a little.

  4. That's a pretty big haul for 'not very many purples'!
    Love those boats - are all three sizes going in one quilt?

    1. Not sure how I’ll use the three sizes of Sailing boats yet. I’ll have a play with the blocks when we finish all the colours and then see what happens.

    1. The most purple I had were some 2” batik squares a friend gifted way back before the Covid Lockdown.

  6. Loving your collection. The top right block looks like the boat is in front of a huge waterfall

    1. I see what you mean! Hadn’t thought that before. Waterfall created by me getting the fabric the wrong way round when I made the flipped corners if the boat!
