This little (blue) piggy went to market, this little (blue) piggy stayed home...

When January started, I hoped that Angela would pick either red or gold for the monthly color for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge, seeing as how I had big stacks of both of those colors right at hand for Allietare.
But, hey, blue is nice, too.  8)
I got a few little pigs done right off, and decided to go with the larger size.
My plan is to make one piglet each week throughout the month, along with a block from the list that I've chosen for RSC2016.
So, I made another blue piggy this week, and again used a bit of purple for an accent color. 

Once again, thanks to Sally T for this sweet little oinker.  Tutorial here.

Then on to Chantal's Pinwheels*, which is the other high-on-the-list block.

But, of course, once I had that blue plaid out, I had to have a blue plaid pig.  Because seriously, who wouldn't want a blue plaid pig?

(Colors are darker in real life.  Sometimes my camera just hates me.)
So, at this point I should have two blue piglets, and I have three.

I can see it now - it's going to be the monkeys all over again...



* I've got a couple of leads on the name for this block.  There's a pattern for a miniature called Pinwheel Garden by Primitive Gatherings, and I found it called Rhubarb Whirl from a book called Home to Roost.  (picture - Sister's Choice blog)  I don't see anything rhubarby about it at all, so I may just keep calling it Chantal's Pinwheel.  (Hi, Chantal!)
