I am happy to see the end of teal month since I've used up almost all of the pieces I cut at the beginning of the month. I sewed some spool blocks, some Omigosh blocks, and worked on my teal UFO.
But my most favorite blocks are these 15 tiny (2.25") Alamo Stars that I sewed as leaders/enders throughout the month. Some of the blocks have a teal star, and some have a teal background. Some star centers are the same as the background, some are the same as the star fabric, and some centers are a completely different fabric. Some blocks are mixed and matched when I didn't have enough of one fabric to make a whole block. You can see why I can't throw any little pieces out!

You definitely made the most with your teals. Your Alamo stars are so pretty...and so tiny! Wow!
Your blocks are gorgeous!
I love the variety in your stars. They are looking great.
Your blocks are beautiful, and I can't believe how tiny they are!
Those little stars are gorgeous! I'm a sucker for stars ... especially tiny ones! ;-) I can't wait to see what color is chosen for April!
What a great idea for your leaders & enders
Your stars just sparkle! I love how you use up even the smallest scraps.
beautiful quilts from tiny scraps!
You had a great month. Those tiny Alamo stars are awesome. Are they paper pieced?
I love your little blocks! :0)
Love that there's teal in every little star but not always in the same spot. Too cute!
Love your blocks. I bet they look even better in person, so tiny!
Your teals look so pretty.
Your star blocks are super. What a good idea to make such tiny blocks and you have such unusual colour combinations.
I like your new title photo.
Beautiful!!
Beautiful stars! I would love to hear more about them, as I save crumbs too. Do you foundation-piece them or are they pieced?
As we say in French : "Chapeau!" (I tip my hat to you!) I don't know how you do it. How you can work on so many projects simultaneously is beyond me. I mean, I do have more than one project on the go but I don't work on all(or four) of them at once. I concentrate on one and when I get stuck / tired of it / bored / whatever then I switch to work on ONE other project. And on top of all that, you make beeeeautiful work. Amazing!
Your blocks are, once again, simply fabulous!
I do like your colour blends, very appealing.
Your Alamo stars are very pretty.
Beautiful little scrappy stars!! Do you know how many you have now with all of the colors?
2.25 inches . . . wow!!! They are wonderful together.
Great using the scraps all up! I can't wait to see your rainbow Alamo stars all together.
These are so pretty. I would like to make a doll quilt. Does anyone know where I can download a pattern to cut out the pieces by hand?
Thank you,
Patricia
Great star blocks you have done. You have so many different fabrics.
I do like these teeny weeny stars so intricate
I love those tiny little stars!
I didn't realize those stars were so small! They sure are cute.
Lots of pretty stars!
