RSC Week 19 - Orange - An RSC FINISH - BOM 2026 from Grandma's Red Needle

Remember '70s has moved from my UFOs/WIPs list (UFO #14) to FINISH! 


I got the idea to make a quilt in orange & brown in May 2023. That year/month, orange was the RSC color as well. Who does not remember the 1970's when orange and brown were popular?

RSC Blocks turned into Flimsies from Grandma's Red Needle

 My goal this year is to work on UFOs and WIPs.

I got my DH to pick a number (from the UFO list) between 1 and 31:
