I started a new stitchery project from Violet and Clover's Garden Steps Quilt Along. Quick and easy blocks...fun! I hope to have more to show next week on my Slow Sunday Stitching post.I also finished the hand quilting on my Bowls With Borders quilt, which I can post next Saturday. You can check out the other bowls posted today at Sew We Quilt. And now onto the Rainbow Scrap Challenge update.
The colour this month is teal/aqua/turquoise. I finally got my palm tree branch block sewn and it used up 14 teal scraps. I love it as much as my first two blocks (purple from June, and blue from July).
You can get the free pattern designed by Kristi, and watch the tutorial. (And BTW, Kristi organized a paper piecing blog hop for the month of August, so you can hop over and get some more paper piecing ideas.)
Phew...after all that hoping around in blogland, it'll be time for a nap!

As beautiful as they look individually, together they are more.
I love how those are coming out. Are you planning to go back and do the other colors?
Love your blocks. Your prints are much more interesting than mine.

You and Terri are making some beautiful rainbow palm blocks. I feel I'm going to come down with a case of "palm block fever" too :D
Love that turquoise.
Beautiful colors in your rainbow scrap challenge.
Check with you again next week for Bowls with Borders.
Those are lovely trees you are growing there.
Purple is my favourite but you teal tree is very pretty.
Enjoy sewing.
Ooh-la-la - I like the optical illusion created when you put the palm tree blocks together! This is going to be a fun quilt!
The rainbow blocks are really cool! I may just have to check that tutorial out! Thanks for sharing.
