I have to say that Orange is not one of my favourite colours, and I don't have a great deal of it. But as I’m joining in the Rainbow Scrap Challenge again this year, orange is February's colour. And it doesn’t look too bad used in my chosen blocks. These three orange butterflies look very pretty, and are sure to flit across my butterfly quilt quite nicely when all their different coloured friends have been stitched.

And I’m really pleased with how the checkerboard blocks turned out, a nice easy block to make, and will eventually become a boy’s donation quilt.

As we are heading off this weekend for a three week trip in our caravan, I will be running late with the RSC blocks for March. Never mind, I’ll just have to play catch up when we return home. Wonder what colour will be chosen for March?

have fun travels - I must say orange is not my favorite either and I will need to replenish them one day
I would struggle to find any orange in my batiks, one is closer to burnt orange with brown tints. En joy the time away. too hot here to do much at all.
I hope your holiday travels are fun and safe. Your RSC orange blocks are just delightful!
Nice Orange work. I am liking orange more and more every day. It is so bright and cheerful. Safe travels....
Your butterflies are so lovely--and you can flutter off on your next journey now..;))) hugs, Julierose
Be safe and have fun. Orange? I have always loved it.

I doubt I could find enough orange in my stash/scraps to make even one block. Safe travel.
Orange is perfect for those butterflies, Jenny! I like the checkerboard blocks, too. Have a wonderful time on your trip!
I love Orange! Love your butterflies and the checkerboard blocks....well done!
Lovely orangey blocks, Jenny. I have very little orange fabric. Batiks are so beautiful. Enjoy your travels...I’ll look forward to hearing about them.
The main butterflies we see are orange, so yours are perfect. You will end up within two great projects.
Your orange butterflies are perfect monarchs.Then again I love both orange AND butterflies! Safe travels. See you on your return to RSC-land!
LOVE those ORANGE scrappy blocks for the RSC!!! Every color has its place in the rainbow. :o))
I really like the checkerboard blocks! It’s a great block for a boy quilt!
The orange butterflies and blocks are lovely...
Enjoy your travels..
I'm not really a fan of orange either but I'm sure a fan of butterflies. Love yours.
Safe travels!
