Deana has posted the project number for April and it is NUMBER 4.
I’m not sure if this is really funny or sad, but to date I have swapped around every project number that has been selected. Let’s see what Number 4 is:
Yep, you guessed it. I’m swapping this one around as well. At the start of the year I couldn’t find the fabric I had bought at Baradine last year to make this project and couldn’t find my pattern either.
The fabric has been found, but the pattern is still playing hide and seek. That is particularly annoying, as I have made this project twice before and have some hand written notes with the pattern to help me along the way. I know it is here somewhere, as I did have a look at it after I bought the fabric. Grrrr!
Anyway, in the mean time I am swapping it with my Number 5 which is the Granny Square Table Runner. I do have the fabrics for this one and the photo I am using for inspiration. It even travelled to Scrub Stitchin’ with me last year, but wasn’t worked on. The charm squares are left over from a Girls Day in the Country project from 2013, so I do think it is time to get this table runner made. My goal said that it will be good to practise ruler work on Monique, so it may not be completed in April, but will at least be well on the way and should be finished by the end of the year. As you can guess, this is now yet another project to pack to take to Baradine.
The funny thing is that when I chose my projects for the year I thought they would all be nice and easy to complete within a month. This is mostly true, as long as you don’t get busy with other things. Let’s hope I find more time later in the year, now that I have kept postponing those that need a little more thought.
RAINBOW SCRAP CHALLENGE
The colour this month is? I haven't been able to ascertain the colour as yet. Once again, I will keep it simple with my split nine patch blocks. Hopefully, that is something I can prepare in the next couple of days.
EDITED: The colour for April is RED. Now to pull some fabrics.
Other than that, I hope to have lots to show for my time at Scrub Stithin’. I can’t wait.
What I do need to do is get some hand stitching prepped, as other than my Sashiko panel, which is half done, I don’t have anything on the go at the moment. Oh, the possibilities…. and the decisions to be made. Watch this space.

Your upcoming Scrub Stitching trip sounds fun, always very enjoyable it seems.
Darn - how do things get lost?? Hope it turns up...soon...I love that you have a box with 4 on it, but its empty...LOL
I've been stalking the site for RSC too....its the 1st there now & ahs been for a while...sending her hurry up vibes...as if I ahd nothing else to do.
Fun projects lined up for S/Stitching. How annoying about the pattern.
The April colour is red. I had read her to say teal is up next but i guess that was referring to the colour thread she needed for her hexie quilting.
You know that pattern will turn up the day after you get your hands on another copy? LOL The charm square table runner looks like a good one to take along to Scrub Stitchin'.
So annoying when you can’t find things, I’m hunting for some Japanese fabrics.
Must be hiding with your pattern.
The granny square runner is a fun one to make.
You’ve plenty to keep you busy at SS.
Oh thanks for thumbs with red.
Look forward to hearing about what you all get up to at SS. That pattern will appear as soon as you get home😁. So red is your next colour? Good to know now as you April sounds quite full already. Take care & hugs.
Gorgeous fabric for your bag - hope you find the pattern! Meanwhile that table runner is going to be just as lovely. xx
You will find the pattern one day. As well as sort out some more projects for scrub Stitchin
Perhaps the #4 pattern will show up by the time the #5 is drawn. It might just work out perfectly.
I am sure you will get lots done this month.
