My Rainbow Scrap Challenge Inspiration

*
Have you heard about
 and the 
2013 RAINBOW SCRAP CHALLENGE?
Truly, I must have been living under a rock or on another planet!
*
The premise is to, over the course of the year, sew up a scrappy quilt of your choice
and be motivated by the other scrap busters joining in!
I have never committed to anything like this before and I do have alot of scraps that leave me 
scratching my head as to what to do with them.
This is what I'm going to stitch up, I just love this quilt.

It's called "Northwinds" or "Corn and Beans".
No, your eyes aren't going wonky it just looks like it...way cool ( I think ).
It's mind bending!
*
This particular quilt is from
This is a real testimony as to what can happen when a bunch of 
not-sew-attractive fabrics are combined resulting in this treasure!
*
I can't wait to get started!
*
What are your plans for 2013's sewing list?

  1. I'm going to have to go sit somewhere quiet now after looking at that quilt too closely! It is way cool, but it could drive some people doolally.

  3. What a great challenge! I just made a scrappy rainbow block for a bee and it would be fun to make an entire quilt like the block. I'll check it out!

  4. I will check out this challenge as I have lots of scraps. Probably do something with a more modern spin to it. I have lots of UFOs to finish and some kits I put together for some purses. Lots to do and excited to dig in!
