At last a wee bit of rainbow

Yay!  It's orange month for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge, which means it's my favorite month of the year.  Here I've managed to squeeze in a bit of orange that wasn't directly Frolic-oriented. 


Two more little doodads for the RSC.  Or widgets.  I don't know what to call them.


That's the whole of what I've got so far.  I'm combining leftover 2.5" print half-square triangles (and between my temperature quilt and all the Bonnie Hunter projects I've worked on, I have a great plenty of those) with whatever solid I grab that doesn't look too terrible, and ta-da!  A widget!  Or a doodad! 
Or a thingy?  I need to come up with a name for these...

    Oh, those are fun! The orange seems to go with everything - I never knew that before today!

    Why not call this one "Widgets and Doo Dads" ? I like both and and I love seeing all those colors with orange (and to think I didn't used to like that color much).

    I am not normally an orange person, but you always make it look so awesome!

    Sorry, I have no clever name for you. But I do like those HSTs. They look like a bunch of different blocks depending upon fabric placement. I want a whole big quilt of those whatever they ares.

    I recently mixed prints with solids, too, and find the result visually exciting. Just like these.

    A fun wee bit of sewing! Your doo-dad widget blocks looks great. I love the pop of colour an orange gives but use if rarely - I think I'll be scratching for this month's blocks.

    What great, bright colors! Gender neutral! (I’m noticing that more now that I do the Quilts for Kids). Your little blocks are the ‘sails’ portion of little sailboat blocks. Why not just call them sails? And think of all the word play possibilities, too...
