The color of the month over at so scrappy is purple! I love purple! Easy peasy... purple cows, purple cups and saucers, purple flamingos....
I paper pieced them from the scrap bins, fussy little tiny shards of fabric! Something from nothing, something beautiful from a scrap another person might have thrown away!
cute little fabrics. I inked in the beaks and eyes.
and here they are with their pink friends. How expected. Pink flamingos! Really!
When you've looked around here, please enjoy the other color purple blocks over at superscrappy RSC2015 on Saturday's link party! Also enjoy other paper pieced blocks at quiltartdesigns party Friday

Hi LeeAnna!
What a great result! It's turning out to be a great flamboyance of flamingos!
take care,
Joanne
Your paper piecing is turning out some brilliant stuff at the moment. Teapots and flamingos - what more could you want.
they are very cute! I don't have the patience for paper piecing - well done to you!
You flamingoes are too cute!!! Whatever Laura said - I am such a wham bam quilt kinda gal that paper piecing seems too tedious to me. And then I see the outcome - Spectacular!!!
These purple flamingos are looking so good.
Love them!
The flamingos are amazing!
So darned cute! Love them all -- even the pink.
Were they eating grape-flavored shrimp? :) They look great!
maybe grape hyacinths... or the Flamingo-Smythes had a fancy party with purple tinted shrimp as appetizers. LeeAnna
You've got the beginings of a great flock of flamingos!

Loving the purple flamingo's!

Love the flamingos!
Your flamingos are adorable! And the water on the one pink flamingo just sparkles!
Love how they all look different and unique but coherent! Thanks for sharing!
Love the birdies!
What a fun surprise these guys are in purple! I love how paper-piecing uses up scraps that would likely be too small for a typical pieced project.
I just love those purple flamingos with the hot yellow legs. They are adorable!
So freaking cute!! I think the pink ones are loving the purple ones, looks like a love match to me! :)
Really adorable! Why not purple? Love them.
So adorable these purple beauties!

Are they cute in purple! I have made that pattern but can't remember where I got it. It was a free pattern on line somewhere.
this one is from Sew precise by shirley liby, a cd about 25 dollars if I remember right.

What funny little guys! A fun little flock of flamingos. Maybe next you could resize the pattern for a baby?
I am having hard time believing that you made them from scrap fabrics. They are beautiful!!

I love the flamingos! What fun!
Where did you get the pattern for the flamingos ? I have a granddaughter who loves them and would love a quilt out of them. Thanks !!!
They are so adorable .. I think a quilt of them in twin size with many different colored flamingos !
The pattern is Sew Precise. It's software and you size it for your needs.
I plan to do flamingos in all colors for the color challenge this year at so scrappy.
