Scrappy Saturday

I am visiting an old project this weekend... my Alamo Stars.
They are so cute and will finish at 2.25" when sewn in the quilt.
The most tedious part is cutting out the 17 little pieces for one star block.
I have cut enough pieces for several star  blocks and I clip all the pieces together for each block so they don't get lost.
I am combining January's blues and February's pinks.
Aren't they cute?!?
I will set these aside to use as leader/enders while sewing this week.
To see what other scrap quilters are sewing today, hop over to SoScrappy.

Great use for the tiny clips. I like the bigger Green ones that are available now. Love your Alamo Pink & Blue stars. If they were larger they'd make a cute baby quilt.

Such tiny pieces; a good idea to keep them pegged together. The blocks are turning out really pretty.

I love your little blocks, but the thought of 17 pieces finishing at 2.5 inches is daunting for me. You're a brave woman.
