Red is the colour selected for March for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge. I had a few simple blocks to make - the same block in two sizes, so that didn't take too long at all. The baby blocks were first, and I wanted to keep it soft, no bright, glaring red, I decided. So I chose a pink and red print to keep the look I was after.

The dinosaurs were next, and I used a bright red solid for these ones. Another donation quilt, I'm sure some young boy will love snuggling up with the dinosaurs.

I have a couple of red draw string children's bags to stitch for RSC, hopefully I'll do them next week. Then I want to get on with my own stitching, as well as the monthly Chook Shed Challenge - there is always plenty to keep me busy.
There was an E-Waste collection today, I discovered early in the week so I have been gathering up items to dispose of. Such as a lap top computer, a tablet, and three old cell phones. Plus a whole lot of computer cords and things which have been lying around in cabinets and drawers. The local Lions Club organised the day, and for a small fee took these things off my hands. They go to be recycled safely, and the Lions get some funds for their continuing good deeds.

Gemma often likes to hide out in the cubby hole on her tower, but yesterday hopped right up on top, surveying her kingdom. She is very sure that she rules the house!
